No foreign holidays now this year. Merkel won’t be happy.
They've been running full fat 747s to Mallorca all June
Alot of Germans own second homes in Spain.
Tell us about it. International travel is a hot potato. Spanish kids have been to Mallorca and spread covid. They are isolating now. Notwithstanding the last lot of figures showed Balearics as safer than mainland.
International travel, especially from a Delta variant hotspot country like UK, is currently being kicked around in the EU. Germany and France ( who themselves are heading for a fourth wave, are expecting any uk visitors to isolate on arrival. Ditto Italy. Germany wants the EU to have harmonious rules on isolation. Now Spain and Greece, desperate for UK tourists, have said you can come with tests or double jabbed. No isolation requirement. Behind the scenes Brussels is pressurising Spain with turning the tap off on the 70 billion recovery fund we so desperately need. No doubt the tap will get turned back on when we agree to isolation. Hence the veiled reference to Merkel .
The schengen agreement on free travel was a dark joke a few months back with Germans and French living it up here in Spain while we residents couldn’t find leave our province or for a few weeks even leave our municipality.
Anyway lets see if the mainland Costas open up to uk in what is left of summer.
