OK Thanks. We are looking at options but none are looking too promising at the moment. Worst case scenario is we lose all the money and money is just money. Gonna break my little girl's heart, which is the worst bit. Feeling an emotional response to it all at the moment, so I'll leave it there.
Hope you get it sorted Pete. I've just been through everything for our booking, and I can cancel everything except the flights. I did book recently, though, so I knew the risks, and had some idea this might happen.
Did you book insurance at the time of your original booking? If so, you may well be covered for the fact that you will be forced to cancel due to the pandemic.
Transport Minister Grant Shapps is currently on holiday ..........in Spain. Hopefully our media will ensure he stays in quarantine on his return.
But rules ignored by Brits when they started coming over. Also ignored by young Spaniards in the big cities (Madrid, Barcelona, Zaragoza) who think it’ll never happen to them - the infections being reported this time are primarily that group.One of the strictest national lockdowns in the world followed by localised lockdowns.
Mandatory mask use.
Mandatory glove use in shops.
the problem is the number of foreigners coming in to Spain that aren't following the rules while hammered.One of the strictest national lockdowns in the world followed by localised lockdowns.

Well travelling to any tourism zone is high risk, due to numbers, people relaxing on 'holiday', but travelling to an international tourism are is really really risky as you are subjecting yourself to a bigger network of people.What’s the difference staying in a plague infested country and travelling to one.
What’s the difference between taking a flight to Spain or a train journey to Cornwall?
If you booked your holiday before March, then I would think companies would be lenient on people coming back and having to quarantine. If you booked it after that then you can't expect sympathy or paid leave. You know the risks
Given that it is self policed anyway what is the point? If you are going to try and get round it by driving to France you might as well fly back from Spain and not quarantine at all - whichever way is against the whole point of the change in policy.By the same token you could get a train to France.
That's a very supportive attitude. I hope you apply to every risk area of life.I have zero sympathy for people went or are going on holiday.. I travel a lot but decided to not bother this year, as you just don't know what is around the corner. So tough t*ts

Aren't they safe in tesco?it isn't supportive at all.. these are the same people who are wearing a mask in tesco thinking they are safe..

Aldi is safestsafer than in Asda, but not 100% safe, no
You only get one go at life and no one knows what is round the corner. If we all lived life in our little containment, then life would be a sad place with no one trying anything new. You are just as likely to catch it at home than abroad. I’m in France for the summer, if I have to self isolate on my return, then so be it.I have zero sympathy for people went or are going on holiday..

We all received the nod to travel and countries welcomed us with open arms. The goal posts have moved slightly since then and we will deal with it.
the sanctimoniousness seems to be coming from you. Some of us are just more risk averse than others.For the sanctimonious on this thread we have to assume you are consigned to being indoors all the time in the UK until this is over.
