...also, WHERE is it, as EU member states can override the European council recommendations in theory, should they wish to...which they obviously will.
It’ll be in Germany also
...Ah....they might not be so keen to overide the recommendation.....

I will have been vaccinated by then, why would they try and stop people travelling who've been vaccinated?
Maybe Bill Gates will suppress my will to travel using the chip they've put in me anyway?

We were lucky to sneak in a week in Greece in between the travel bans so I guess the almighty will cancel something else to even it out.

Is "the almighty" Ursula von de layens new title?
I know the EU is a corporate expansionist & imperialist project, but thats a bit much, surely...
Yeah tbf holidays are the least of my brexit issues tbh. it is what it is - plenty of places in this country worth visiting if it's a must, and it can't be *more* disrupted than this year for holidays, anyway!Looks like it depends on transmission rates. We’ve been doing the same with all EU nations since the summer anyway ?!! ie adding and removing countries from travel corridor. It says
‘EU member states can override the European council recommendations in theory, should they wish to’
So, presume any big UK tourist destinations will apply unless crazy transmission rates. In any event, if situation remains the same:
‘The Foreign Office currently advises against all nonessential travel to most of Europe, bar some holiday destinations such as certain Greek islands, and quarantine on return is required for those who choose to travel’
Typical media negative non story ! Like with all holidays, next year looks better but likely to be playing it by ear

Come on Dom, you should learn by now that setting expectations is not a good thing to do (depending on your definition of spring).
In any case, best thing for people to do next year is holiday in the UK if a mass vaccination is ongoing.
Will they? Unlikely
Of course its a shock, absolutely no way anyone could have predicted this.Why are the media shocked London has high rates? They had high rates anyway but were given relaxed lockdown while most other places were Tier 3.
Yeah...you're right.
The Portuguese, Greeks, Spanish etc. would never ever consider over-riding EU guidance in order to support their own tourism industries. Absolutely. They would never do that. Ever.

Same as nobody could have predicted numbers going up when bars & restaurants were opened, or when students were packed off to Uni, or when kids went back to school. Get ready for the 'how did this happen' when the numbers shoot up after the Christmas 'week off' from restrictions.
