Wonder what the chances are of GC being on a form of lockdown come April ?

Considering that Schools are now closed for at least 2wks.

The annual Carnival has been cancelled.

Gatsby has decided to close and others likely to follow ?

When you look at countries that are already taking measures and the fact that GC receive 1000s of visitors at this time of year, it would be no surprise for GC to protect themselves from that influx.

They already have cases and can expect lots more in the coming weeks.

We are due to fly in 2wks but think it is extremely unlikely. probably due to flights etc.

I fly 2 weeks today , not looking good , will go if flight goes but I am only accommodation only , hope the shops are open or I might starve.

2 weeks can change the situation , probably for the worst.

With my work I get regular updates about which countries are stopping flights as soon as they happen, they have stopped the ski flights starting tomorrow and Prague is closing on Monday.

We are due fo ourselves in June so watching it closely.

As soon as I hear anything about caneries or GC I will either put a message on this forum or will create a new post.

Hope there's some announcement from the GC government.

We all need a bit of clarity of what's going on in the next few weeks.

If you were going to PDI, others have said everything is fine there, so maybe it's ok to go.

That's a shame, there seems to be a few cancelling. It's a personal choice and depends on your health.Think we may cancel our Corfu holiday, we can always book later when things are more clearer.

We were due to fly with Jet2 but they’ve cancelled all flights and holidays saying that with bars and clubs shut it will ruin holidays. Our flight is 5th April so not sure if we are affected yet but expecting to be.

Really feel for you if there is no news.

Considering that GC is going on lockdown from 08.00 Monday it is a disgrace that your trip is going ahead

Its clear nobody will be flying out to GC in the coming weeks...don't cancel your holiday as you will lose your money.

Let the airline cancel or wait for FCO to list it as 'only essential travel' and you will get a full refund.

We too are with TUI and in PDI and heard nothing. However the lockdown starting Monday 16th at 08.00 seems to trump any arrangements any travel operator may or may not have anyway.
