normally when I get back of my hols early October I book somewhere for next year to give me something to look forward to.but with brexit happening would it be wise to wait to see what happens or get in before the prices skyrocket
 
Theres reports today that we could well be in trouble here , as the UK will not be party to ''Open Skies'' the international agreement that governs flights over foreign airspace and landing on foriegn soil. Nobody in the current muppet of a government seems to have paid any attention to this, and not only that have failed to pick up on the fact that airlines have to negotiate routes and landing rights 6 months before they happen.

not saying don't book it ......

I don't think prices will rocket 'cos continental hotels need to be filled! What I anticipate is standing in a queue for half of a ten day holiday attempting to show Johnny Foreigner Border Guard my passport!
 
Wouldn't worry, my guess is we'll agree a 2 year transition that will last longer than that, during which nothing will change.

We haven't got the reliance on the largest oil fields in the world which we don't benefit from because of suppressed prices and USA sanctions whilst trying to deal with a debt problem incurred when we borrowed money backed by the same oil fields at the top of the market

Easyjet for example have already changed a lot of their British registered planes,into a subsidary,Easyjet Europe,so that'll be one way around it for the airlines,and good old Ryanair are all Irish registrations,so the British flyers could and should be ok.

There's no way those 2 companies alone would not find a way of taking us brits to foreign lands,even if it is in a farmers field in middle of nowhere in Ryanair's case.

As for your Tui,Jet2 and Tommy Cook's of our shores on the packages,as you say,negotiations will have to take place no doubt,very soon,if not already that is.
 
If anyone actually believes that any form of Brexit will stop people going on holiday and planes flying are idiots.

Exchange rates might be a bit shit, but they've been like that for ages.

ha ha ha - so desperate its untrue. Would he also turn us into Nazi Germany with an anti semitic foreign policy and add to it compulsory open borders immigration? ( have I left any of the usual smears out? If so I apologise)

I'd hang on a bit - some friends are in Turkey at the moment - wouldn't have gone there normally but the cost and exchange rate made it attractive and thats the result of fairly recent events - it could be a shit storm but it could also present some holiday opportunities by waiting until next year fella
 
Instead of people spouting ‘project fear’, is there any experts on the forum who can tell us if British carriers will be still okay to fly into Europe after 31st March next year and what needs to be done to ensure we are able to do that?

There hangs the problem. This government is so incompetent it hasn’t worked out anything yet. They are still talking and with just a few months to go to October, that’s when EU ministers meet to agree ‘the deal’, we are nowhere near said ‘deal’. Two years in.

As I understand we don't need the final deal, we just need the EU to allow us to enter the transition 2 years with no changes to current rules. Of course we need to meet the EU's conditions for that. Personally I think we'll agree to whatever the eu ask but not until the last minute so it cant be overturned.
Thats why I'm not worried, then again the government may be more stupid than I think.
