Icelandic Volcano Could Blow Any Moment

For those of you with holidays, you are covered by the EU package travel regulations as long as you bought flight and hotel together. In simple terms its then for the tour operator to look after you.

If you bought it all online separately, you're stuffed if it goes wrong. And as noted, it's been excluded from travel insurance now.

The earths not going to blow up, volcanos erupt all the time and it doesn't cause a big deal, depends on many factors if it's going to disrupt air traffic

A large one could reduce farm yields for several years, pushing up food prices worldwide. This could cause starvation, wars and rioting leading to the deaths of tens of millions as we all compete for increasingly scarce resources. In the ensuing pandemonium it only takes one or two poorly maintained nuclear power stations to melt down and you're looking at a cataclysmic event, not just for humanity, but for all the earth's species.

Apart from that though, everything will be fine.

When Santorini/Thera blew in ancient times it devastated the whole of the central Med especially Crete virtually wiping out the Minoan civilisation

At least with me, it's only the flight over, one night's accommodation and the match ticket. About €300. Would be worse if it was a wek or so out in Spain/Cyprus/wherever.
