"so looks like anyone wanting a 2 weeks holiday will need 6 weeks off work..2 weeks quarantine in your destination country followed by your holiday and then 2 weeks Quarantine when you return to the UK..guess overseas travel is out for 2020....." 6 weeks at least. What if you catch the virus when you are away? No way will you be allowed to travel back. Will have to self isolate out there. Not sure your employers will be happy. Not even sure if your travel insurance will cover you in case you end up being hospitalised | |||

" I think the people who have been working/ volunteering through all this have a better understanding of how it's going to work for the foreseeable future. The ones at home have probably only experienced social distancing in supermarkets so it's all still 'new' to them. | |||

"I think I'll stay in the UK this year, just a change of scenery and no housework is good enough for me. I don't think I could relax abroad, on the plane, worried if one of us comes down with symptoms etc (family of 5). Plus not being able to do what we want when we want doesn't sound like a great holiday to me!" After going through the quarantine you would need another decking holiday ffs | |||

They have no idea when they will open the borders to the UK yet, it will depend on our infection rate here. Majority of Greeks aren't happy to see us back until we are more controlled here. Their infection rates are very low. | |||

"id like to see the small print in travel insurence im guessing if you want to be covered for a stay in hospital fir covud your gona be looking at massive premiums" Talking to a friend on a Corfu forum, he checked with his insurance company and they would only cover for repatriation, not for anything medical connected to Covid, so worth checking your policies everyone | |||

"Unlikely you will be able to get travel insurance that covers COVID for some time. So even if you are free to travel you'll have to bear the risk of hospital costs should you catch it abroad. If you are a citizen of UK only, you'll still have the benefit of the E-111 till the end of the year but then that stops." | |||

It's more likely that an annual policy obtained before this won't exclude such an event but there's no guarantee. I'd check the Internet with searches on the insurer, to see if there are discussions on them or complaints etc. The EU health card is still valid, for European travel but provides health costs at the same price as local residents. Now that many countries are over their peak, that is some consolation. | |||
