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.....

And with national holidays going bust ..a lot of british holidays will be out of the question for many.

It seems a poor measure that's been introduced. It will restrict the majority of the population in many ways. Businesses will further struggle, jobs will be lost adding to the unemployment figures and impacts from this, and our travel industry won't be able to to sustain itself as well for the future, when it should be more feasible to travel.

They appear to have over-compensated for action that they didn't take earlier, which would have potentially had a more beneficial effect on health. Priti Awful isn't a reputable person to have managing this.

We will have other countries making us unwelcome. The concept of travelling somewhere where you are forced to isolate, before you can enjoy a holiday, is likely.

The Irish Republic could take some of us. Or perhaps people will divert travel via Ireland, so that they don't need to isolate on return.

Flying out soon. Happy to do two weeks in my home and garden will be able to work remotely while I am there anyway. If I make it out the quarantine I will the take care of some business and go for some walks in the hills and beaches. Make some restaurant reservations as they are slowly being opened will be nice to sit in one again even at 50% capacity.

Then home for two weeks working from home.

The new normal making it work.

Parts of Cyprus may stillbe open as they are part of the SBA and not under the control of the Cyprus Government. I did call the owner of the apartment we use this morning and told me about the SBA. He reckons that the ban will be lift sometime in July. Also the Northern part as different rules and government.

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.

Other countries are doing airport testing, which won't cover you for a last minute acquired infection but at least could allow you to get out whilst on holidays, not stay in isolation.

The UK 2 weeks isolation is a joke and should be changed. This would support the travel sector to remain in business, for people who will want to travel in 2020 onwardsm

Wise move. 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.

Absolutely, one of my immediate family works for the NHS, two of his close colleagues have tested positive but the can't and won't test the rest as they can't afford to lose any more staff and as long as he doesn't show symptoms it's business as usual.

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.

Nope.

I'm a nurse working full time. Face to face appointments included. My partner has tested positive for c-19 who does not work in the care sector (he is a welder so not even been at work) and they wont test me.

Ylthe press are making it sound like all nhs staff are been tested as a matter of routine. They are not. "

Why won't they test you? Just go to a test centre, everyone can now get a test. Just say you can't taste anything.

"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

Travel insurers aren't providing coverage for covid19 any longer, they added it as an exclusion to new policies a couple of months ago

Does that apply to yearly existing policies, do you know, I've had nothing from my insurers."

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.
