"Who is still going regardless? I can quarantine and work from home on my return but is it worth going if it's a ghost town? I'm supposed to be flying 2nd october for 17nights from bristol with Ryanair " It'll only be a ghost town if nobody goes because they think it will be a ghost town. We are going regardless. If the planes are flying and the good people of GC will have us we WILL be there! We are bringing friends with us too so sorry ghosts... enjoy the peace and quiet because we are seriously in the mood to party. Arriving on 5 October. Leaving on the 26th. Staying in an 8 person villa and have NO intention of being lonely! PDI. You. Have. Been. Warned.  | |||

No one can know what will be happening when you are booked to go, but it's still a lovely time of year to have a sunny holiday  | |||

"We are going with Jet2 on a package booked 12 months ago... I am almost certain it will be cancelled and, tbh, want them to do so asap. Our backup plan is to fly via a carrier still flying and spend our time at Venus (we are already booked for a few days). If I were a gambler I would book now but I'm not lol.... I just hope we can book flights and Venus at short notice...." Our deposit went through today. If our flight gets cancelled we will join you on a last minute search. | |||

"If the flight goes (Easyjet) then we go, still 4 weeks so anything could change (quarantine being lifted for Islands) (Spain Stopping UK because of our numbers) (World stops spinning) etc. It's a holiday, we've both been lucky enough to work all thru the lockdown and want a break. The urge isn't the sex, the urge is just to get away .. from fools here (not Fabs ..well mostly) from constant news about the virus. " Totally agree...... | |||

"Once again doom & gloom Just take it as a holiday. There is still places open in the yumbo centre and cita for a drink " Maybe let people make their own decisions. Not everyone can quarantine for 2 weeks....it's not really about having a drink either... | |||

"We have two weeks booked off from work from the 8th and if the flight and hotel are still available, then we go. Either that or its two weeks sitting at home as we have to have the time off work. If we go away and then have to sit at home for two weeks to isolate, at least we will have had two weeks of sun beforehand. We are lucky as we can work from home while isolating. If the holiday ends up being two weeks of reading, a couple of early drinks and early nights, we would rather do that in the sun, than indoors in the Midlands. " Makes sense | |||

Yes, that's what I was looking at.... Luton Probably wouldn't need much luggage either... They have 3 luggage options it seems.. Still waiting for Jet2 at the mo.... And then decide if we even bother tbh as we are back in Dec anyway (in theory) | |||

""The Canary Islands Government has several test options to carry out on tourists entering and leaving the islands, as has been sent to the central Government in Madrid for approval, although it has a preference for a test that has all the guarantees of reliability, is the fastest on the market giving reliable results in just two minutes, and it only costs 15 euros" " When will that be ready for use? | |||

"The article doesn’t say. I think the choice of test has been left to the Canarians but the kit is being bought by Madrid. Here's the rest of the article: "It is called the DSA Analyzer test, from the Rhogen laboratory, which works as a kind of hand-held breathalyzer and allows giving results from exhaled air. This test, which was approved by European standards last week, as it meets all the reliability parameters, allows the identification of the different phases of virus infection through exhaled air. The other option is the rapid detection PCR whose cost is 30 euros, but the time for results is one hour. The advantages of the Rhogen laboratory test are what make it the first option, according to Government sources. In addition to informing Central Government of these two test options, the document sent by the regional Executive, through the Tourism and Health Ministries, points to two "requirements" of the Canary Islands. The first is that the tests must be done at airports, which are the responsibility of the State, since other alternatives, such as doing it abroad have logistics and costs that make it very difficult. The Canary Islands also want all passengers to be included, and not just foreign tourists. | |||
