We went down to Somerset for lunch with some friends today. The traffic on the M3 and A303 was absolutely mad. Caravans and camper vans everywhere. Cars clearly loaded up for holidays. Christ alone knows what it will be like when the schools break up....
Many schools broke up on Friday, and many children weren't in school anyway, so with today being the first "legal" day to travel to a holiday property, I would think today would have been the peak day.Oh I forgot that the whole of Devon and Cornwall would be f----d without tourists......
A typically naive view from the self righteous ill informed! Yes, visit the SW and have a great time, but I can assure you that many down here have occupations that are not in any way connected to tourism.

Bore off. You are an ignorant bigot. This thread is for talking about holidays - not your petty prejudices A typically naive view from the self righteous ill informed!

Codswallop, but of course, a typical and predictable view. A typically naive view from the self righteous ill informed! Yes, visit the SW and have a great time, but I can assure you that many down here have occupations that are not in any way connected to tourism.

1 in 5 jobs in Cornwall are related to the tourism industry. I think it’s fair to say without it the county would be pretty fked. Devon not so much.A typically naive view from the self righteous ill informed!

It must be quite worrying for these areas as we transition from lockdown to normality (or more fluid and local lockdowns), seeing restrictions reduce and everyone heading there from the cities.
Obviously some really want the tourist money but others must think quite the opposite. Like normal really.

Anyone got a definitive answer to the position where the airline (easyJet) cancels you outbound flight but says nothing about the return leg??
You should be able to request a refund based on your booking reference, which covers both flights. Took 6 weeks for mine to come through though. Apparently if you call them you’ll get the refund immediately, you might spend a while on hold though. survivalist said:

I know it's not easyJet but BA will refund both if only one leg is cancelled.We popped to Ringwood on the A27, to pick something up yesterday, the number of caravans at Rownhams services was unbelievable, mainly retired couples would be my observation, as well as car loads of late teens/early twenties shouting from their cars as they head off for holidays now the pubs have opened.All heading west, a mate was on the A303 at the same time and said it was very slow with caravans

I should have done it before the announcement of the air bridges as flights went up by £100 or so but I bit the bullet and booked flights to Dubrovnik for the end of August (22-30). Not a ton of flights and the ones that were available were booking up quick. Going easyJet there and BA back, £210 all in for myself.
