Covid and travel discussion

[denislawsbackheel]

oh definatly it will, how can Ryanair and Easyjet sustain this any longer and the general economics of this country, the Fed reserve could stop proping the dollar up at any moment and then bang, wall St would be small fish on comparison

They will survive by happily taking our money for flights and holidays well in advance.

Off to the Lakes for 4 days next week. Excited is a very big understatement.

The travel industry is so much more than a couple of low cost airlines.

I wouldn't be so sure about anyone surviving through this. Even the most robust of travel businesses is extremely vulnerable to another year of mass disruption, which is what 2021 is shaping up to be.

The sooner the Government wake up and realise how dire the situation is, and get us some tailored help, the better.

Can’t see things improving any time soon - COVID-19 is spreading all over the world

Still hoping for Thailand in November
Fingers crossed

I'm hoping too.

Having a house built out there at the moment and it's proving to be a right ball ache doing it from Blighty!

would it be easier if the government banned all foreign travel until next year and encouraged everyone to have a British holiday?

Not for anyone who works in international travel it wouldn't.

Not for anyone who works in international travel it wouldn't.

Or anyone that thinks £300 a night in England is a rip off for school holidays

I know when you’re from Oldham the bar is set low but fuck holidaying in Britain.

Cases are on the rise in Thailand now. Many areas going into "Red Zone."

They were hoping to start tourism again in places like Phuket in July then opening up all of Thailand in October.

Until they get a move on with their vaccination programme, I'm starting to think maybe next March now.

 

[MCFC_ Phil]

I'm out of the loop with the latest. When realistically do people think we can travel now? June?

Yes. June 2022

Off course, but what do you expect. How much would you charge in such a market?

2021 is lost for international travel believe me. Govt needs to prop it up until next year.

I know .. gutted.
But weather would have been poor in July and August so if its delayed a couple of months I won't be too upset
