Summer Holidays 2021
Discussion
Booked 5 separate weeks away in 2020 for wife and I, ended up cancelling all of them. Got full refunds of all advance payments eg flights and accommodations.
Not expecting to be able to go anywhere during 2021.
We have decided to plan a two week tour of Northern Britain, route, places to visit, and all accommodation etc so that we can jump in the car and take the trip at short notice once we feel we can. Just feel we have to have some form of break to look forward to, whenever it may be!

Booked flights to Pisa before the Covid came along for middle of July.
It's our 25th anniversary and my eldests 21st so thought we would have 2 weeks in Italy as a family to celebrate.
No accommodation booked as yet and looking today lots of places already booked or prices have increased a lot.
I think a lot of holidays postponed from last year have been rebooked.
We also can't agree on where/what type of accommodation or location we want.
Do we want to stay in one spot for 2 weeks or do a few days in Pisa/Lucca then the remaining 10 days ish on the beach.
Not sure if we'll be able to go and with the flights being with Ryannair I've not holding out much hope for a refund.
Looks like it'll have to be 2 weeks in our flat in Cromer
Kids are going to love that!

Kids are going to love that!Driving holiday in Scotland for beginning April, all B&B's are booked but not paid for, they are pay when you arrive, a month or so ago we were ready to book flights and car hire but I decided not to, to see what Covid was up to, glad I didn't as I can't see Scotland happening now.
Last year the wife booked and paid for a week in Santorini for this coming July, fingers crossed!

Put a deposit down on a family holiday abroad in August. Will be gutted if it doesn't go ahead. You would like to think most wealthy countries will have a complete vaccination plan done by then, that's 7 months from now. The UK reckon all over 60s is it by Easter?
......but the UK is currently far ahead of most other countries.Just booked for August for a place we got cancelled last year.
Wanted to get something in the diary as I suspect there will be a rush for holiday places the likes of which have never been seen before once the vaccines get rolled out. Ours was already 25% more expensive than when we booked it last year but I can see holidays been many multiples more expensive than they have been at least for 2021. Lack of capacity in the system an very high demand will only end up with much higher prices.

Looking at St Lucia or Barbados for September - more in hope than expectation, so studying cancellation policies closely. We are sufficiently elderly that we will have been vaccinated by then, but of course that does not mean we are immune from carrying or spreading, so many counties may still have significant measures in place.
