I meant overnight stays with work."I would have thought that was reasonable, it is a guidance and work and all that involves is essential, a holiday isn't | |||

"The 'guidance' is there for a reason.." It is yes, but apparently one can't travel from where we are to Cumbria but we can hop on a flight to Crete.. | |||

"if a business wants to protect their staff and other customers by refusing people who have been advised not to travel anyway i dont see what the issue is " The problem is, because it's only 'guidance' and not an 'instruction', in some cases venues that have cancelled bookings from Tier 3 areas are being threatened with legal action for 'breach of contract'... | |||

Write it off for the greater good. New cases daily are shooting up again right across Europe. I love a good holiday as much as anyone but FFS, we are in a crisis the likes that we have never seen . Did people worry about holidays in WW2? | |||

"I think this is the correct decision to reduce infections. Whilst going away is nice and positive for mental health, it is far from necessary. Hubby and I have a few days away booked next week. The area we are in and that we are travelling to are both tier 1. If either was tier 3, we would not be going. It's consider this to be common sense and not being selfish. | |||

"Travel comes with risk currently which could cost plenty. 30+ years in the airline business, I certainly wouldn't be travelling anywhere currently. Unless of course you are prepared to cough up to have to stay somewhere yourself if travel/flights cancelled. Those who got stuck whilst away when quarantine regs were bought in knew the risk before going. It was pathetic hearing some affected bleeting on national news. In Seotember I spoke to a lady returning to USA who had been stuck (at her expense) in the UK since February. She'd only come for 10 days. US borders are still closed to non citizens." I thought entry into the US was only suspended in March. | |||
