Attempts to fly to Ibiza in August and Tenerife last week thwarted, Tenerife booked for Feb fingers crossed.
what was the issue with Tenerife? As mentioned in another thread there seems to be no checks on "essential travel" at the airport?https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-advice-novel-co...
Either lost in espace doesn’t want to risk a fine (or whatever happens if you break the rules) or just doesn’t want to break the rules. There might be other implications on things like insurance also if you’re travelling when there’s a ban on holiday travel.
Assuming of course that it was holiday travel and the ban that made lost in espace cancel his plans. “Last week”

Idly looking at a break over the Xmas period, is it me or has the cost of flights, to pretty much everywhere warm (so long-haul), tripled yoy?
Yep. People taking advantage of the potential window between current totally counterproductive travel ban and the rumoured lockdown in January that’s been proposed so we all get 5 days with relatives we fking despise eating dry poultry and drinking old people drinks. I’d still love to know why you’d stop people going to countries with no covid and keep them here where they can catch and spread it!
Dublin....
Meant to be going 12th Dec - (rescheduled three times now)
Looks like travel will be allowed but from what I can see - anyone arriving in the Republic has to quarantine for 14 days.... which kinda of makes the short weekend trip pointless
Flights won't be cancelled by the looks of things... so what are the options?
We have insurance so I assume we will end up claiming through that.

Won't the RyanAir allow you to change to flights to a different date - that is what they were offering for bookings over the last few months?

Change is unclear - they let us move the first one for free, (we were originally meant to go in May) - the 2nd they charged us the difference for the flights but no fee to change them - this time the advice on the website refers to flights booked after 1st June - which ours obviously wasn't

I had similar with two weeks in Thailand a few weeks ago, we could have technically gone but was a two week quarentine and mulitiple tests. So we have just got a credit for the flights.

Good news... "Residents of areas that are designated “tier 3” at the end of England’s lockdown have been told they will be able to travel abroad from 2 December". https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advi...
Foreign holiday number 5 since July hopefully coming up!

BA just announced a load of flights from Southampton which will help the runway expansion. Can see a few breaks coming up from May onwards
Interesting. As a former local I was almost certain Soton airport would close, particularly with Bournemouth only 20 minutes down the road. Once Flybe went pop and with their limited accommodation for larger planes on the runway I thought it was curtains. Pleased to hear that.
