The two island chains are on Britain's quarantine list along with mainland Spain
Tenerife and its neighbours say there is little hope for September hotel bookings

What a load of rubbish. The pandemic is over, is now just all lies

The virus is 100th its strength of March. All these restrictions are now because of what is in effect flu, which can be lethal for some, but doesnt kill over 99% of people

Its fkin ridiculous.

Why? Because, as I said, it was already in the price yesterday.

Posting to an airline BB, per se, doesn't mean bull or bear.

Yes it is good covid deaths are falling we all want that

gettingrichslow, enjoy :-)

Why? Because it’s becoming more and more obvious as each week goes by that this virus isn’t going anywhere anytime soon and airlines are in big big trouble. Virus infections are steadily going up in most countries in Europe now, and it’s still only August! I have no idea why anyone would be holding shares in airlines right now.

[taurusthebear] 27/8/2020 19:10

Can't think why because they were widely predicted.

Jamaica, Switzerland and Czech republic removed from the travel corridor. This may be painful in the morning to watch.

Spain and France unfortunately not coming off the list anytime soon

Europe's second wave continues to hit the continent, with France's Covid-19 R rate hitting 1.4, Spain topping the US in cases per million and Italy recording its highest daily case toll since May
France logged 5,429 coronavirus cases Wednesday, its highest total since April
Prime Minister warned R figure is now 1.4, with young people fuelling outbreak
Italy also saw its highest daily case total since May, with 1,367 new cases
Infections also rising in Spain, which now has more cases per million than the US

They do my friend got 2 phone calls it could be very expensive if you get caught out besides it is not fair on other people

[astorcourt] 26/8/2020 17:45

No one checks up on you. Its OK dont worry about silly rules.

[tlobs2] 26/8/2020 16:15

Not like you to post doom and gloom loganair ;-)

Others have a more positive outlook in life and want to go on holiday. You have more chance of dying in the UK from the flu or a heart attack than you do from coronavirus!

While the travel industry desperately needs people to get moving again, the message from the government is clear. Expect disruption, and if you can’t afford two weeks of isolation when you return, it’s probably best not to go at all.

A group of 80 British holidaymakers have been forced to quarantine despite their trip being to the ‘safe’ location of Gibraltar. The travelers were unable to fly home as anticipated due to bad weather delaying the flight overnight. As not enough accommodation was available in the British territory, easyJet bussed them over the border to spend the night in Spain. They must now spend 14 days in self-isolation on return to the UK.

The holidaymakers were faced with the option of either roughing it at the airport for the night or heading into mainland Spain to a hotel provided by the airline. 80 passengers boarded a bus and were taken across the border to spend the night.

Although the passengers were not holidaying in Spain, the fact that they spent the night there means they will now have to quarantine for two weeks.

All I can say, is stupid holidaymakers...

There's always another day ONJohn ;-)

Surprised gain not held

American Airlines to slash 19,000. That’s a lot of people out of work. Airlines must be getting hammered.

[thegame86] 25/8/2020 19:08

Yawn, pump and dump going on. Switzerland likely to be added friday. Interesting to see how Brexit plays out. Hope the Heathrow new testing method goes well that should be a game changer.

[bc4] 25/8/2020 08:04

My friend should have been on the 6.30 am Man to Alicante with Ryanair yesterday but only 3 people were on the flight so they cancelled the flight and moved them onto the 7.30am so it must be hurting the airlines still flying to these destinations because of the 14 day quarantine

[taurusthebear] 25/8/2020 00:28

Will the people who have paid 300% more to get to Portugal this week have to pay even more to get back when it closes again? :0)

[galileo8] 24/8/2020 19:57

I've flown to Greece, got my QR code, relatively hassle free and no crowds. My boy loving it, having a belter.
