"Which still throws up in the air our holiday because means that they will come out of lockdown the day before we are due to fly, we haven't been told otherwise yet" I think it's for a minimum 14 days, don't think anyone knows what will happen after that. I doubt you'll hear much from your travel company, until they know what's happening. | |||

"But lockdown isnt including airspace so if the airlines are flying, legally they can still go" I think the idea is to restrict movement of people, to try and reduce the spread of the disease. Why would you want to go on holiday, if the bars, clubs and restaurants may be closed?  | |||

"It’s a serious issue but for us so far the hotel has provided breakfast and asked us not to leave the hotel grounds. Entertainment and some services cancelled but really not material. TUI now saying we should expect to leave on our scheduled service so that’s a few days of enforced sunbathing First world problems eh?" Not so bad then | |||

Thanks Roger "You're not allowed to have just a walk on the street!!! You can only go outside in certain cases (not only supermarkets or pharmacies, also go to the hairdresser or buy the newspaper) and always alone, without company, except for people with mobility problems. If not met, there could be fines Be aware, because they do fine you....Spain is in state of alarm  | |||

That will affect holiday destinations too, nightmare! | |||

Crazy is that they have closed the border with France but not Luxembourg. Bigger problem for us, if we decide to drive back, is that from tomorrow we wouldn't be allowed on the Spanish roads so we wouldn't even get to France. | |||

"The situation now is like in Italy, so every citizen must stay at home except some exceptions. Everybody here in Spain is following the instructions from the Government, including locals, inmigrants and tourists of any nationality. Everybody following??? We just saw on TV today that lots of British tourists refuse to stay at their hotels, are drinking in the streets and have some confrontations with the police Why always the same?

"I’ve been out this morning to collect wages and get some shopping and it does look like people are following instructions. It’s so eerie though. They have now said insurance won’t cover drivers during the lockdown I hear so, and I think roadworks and such are about to stop. I haven’t heard this officially so may not be 100% true. There was a cyclist fined here yesterday though and someone on my facebook said their friends son was fined today as had no valid reason for being out so the police will not tolerate anyone not following the rules " Interesting one about the car insurance. I can't see it being true though. For example people are allowed to go food shopping and to the pharmacy Etc. If car insurance was to be voided then many people would even be able to do that. If we don't get cancelled again we are due to fly on Thursday evening and drive to the airport. Hopefully the paperwork for the flight will be enough justification if we get stopped. | |||
