Holiday advice

I think the fact that Jet2/TUI are still going to operate holidays to the islands is quite telling and I think/hope there might be a fresh announcement with revised travel advice and restrictions in the next couple of days.

It all seems very farcical, but then this whole COVID19 period has been a shitshow from the Government.

to get in you have to provide a QR code, where your staying and a record of countries visited( only 48 hours before arrival so it's up to date). hence so few cases.

Where in Turkey are you off to? I've been once on an all inclusive job before at a big hotel in between Marmaris and Icmeler. It's one of two times i've gone all inclusive and therefore I didn't really get much experience of the local area aside from a few trips. What we saw was nice enough and Marmaris was a good night out aged 19.

Yes I'm aware, I went to Majorca from 11th to 18th July.
From 1st August the QR code has to be downloaded to your mobile if you have one, can't turn up with a printed copy like I did.

cheers for that, not flying till late october so things will have changed several times by then i guess
 
My feeling is that the Canary islands will have a bridge agreement with the UK
Seems crazy to have to quarantine when there are barely any cases on the Islands.
 
This government has to make it illegal to sack someone who has to quarantine and give support to those who will not be paid.
 
Government's handling of this has been shocking.

A nice solution would be for the govt to issue testing and results ASAP to those who's jobs will be at risk then reinfoce the message to those looking to travel that these "air bridges" are at risk of being pulled should infection rates increase in a particular country.

My employer hasn't an issue with staff going to Spain, as long as they understand they'll only receive SSP upon their return for the two weeks quarantine.
They can't expect the company to pay them in full for the two weeks quarantine

Sorry, I was referring to people who are already there.

That would still require a 5 day quarantine though because of the incubation period.
Test, negative result, 5 day quarantine, test again.

Fair enough.

I suppose if your back in the office or required to work in shops etc, you'd take greater consideration when travelling on holiday despite govt giving the all clear to certain countries.

Safer in the Balearic's and the Canaries than anywhere in the UK and zero deaths today? Looking like bye bye Majorca but fully dependent on TUI. Cheap too at £142 for a week @ a beach front gaff in the Ponsa and couldn't help but bite down hard on that fat juicy old worm.

No it’s not, there’s a worldwide fucking pandemic is it really worth it for 7 days of sun a booze, about time people took responsibility for their own actions
