Covid and travel discussion

We are booked for Tenerife at the end of September but I’ll bin it if I have to wear a mask on the beach or in bars what’s the point in going! These tests at either end need to be cost effective as well paying and extra £200 is a joke my flight only cost that. £20 a test is reasonable if we really have to have one but if I’ve had the jabs and everyone in Tenerife has then why should we need one. I know we can carry the virus but if they’ve immunised the island it shouldn’t be a problem. Travel is not going to take off (no pun intended) if you rock up have had your jabs but are unfortunately carrying the virus with no symptoms you could be losing thousands of £s when they won’t let you go.

I’ve written it off in my head and am making plans for a trip to the northwest States of the US (Washington, Oregan, Idaho) this time next year.

Hope the weather improves over the summer!

That's the spirit. No point in getting your Alan Whickers in a twist.

A report yesterday from border controls in UK stated that around 8 thousand people a day are entering the UK as tourists. Yet we can't travel in the UK overnight ourselves at moment.

My dad works at Manc airport said people from Pakistan trying to get in before going on the red list via any means possible haha. Flying from Helsinki you name it.

im there in November and as you will not be going if a mask is required for the beach or bars,i dont think that will be the situation but you may have to wear your mask in public,pavements ,shops etc, as for the test yes its £20 worth,not sure how they are doing with immunisation i read on trip advisor there struggling like the rest of the EU but that may have been a dated post,at the end of the day by then we should have had both injections and the place cant be much more risk than the UK, September onwards i think it will be fine fingers crossed

You won't need to wear a mask whilst sat in a bar unless you stand up to leave or go to the toilet, bar etc.
Once on the beach you won't need a mask either. Only when walking about is it necessary.
