Mallorca, Greece and Virgin Club News
Posted on 26th March 2021 at 16:26
At the time of writing, TRAVEL ABROAD FROM THE UK IS NOT ALLOWED UNTIL 17TH MAY AT THE EARLIEST, WITH A SMALL NUMBER OF EXCEPTIONS, which need to be declared if you are leaving the UK.
JetsGo Holidays, who specialise in UK holidays to Mallorca, are set to resume operations to the island, from the middle of June 2021. This “late” date is in order to cover for any changes to the roadmap dates.
We are now hearing that Greece are making plans for tourists to return, with very competitive pricing and clarity regarding a lack of quarantine for tourists when they arrive, so long as they have had the vaccine and/or a negative covid test. The Greek tourism ministers have been in talks with the UK Government a while. I must say the Greeks seem very switched on regarding this matter. Tourism is vital for Greece and they all seem to be working towards a common goal.
EasyJet talk of at least a 600 % percent increase in bookings and similar and even higher increases in bookings with other airlines show that customers are wanting to travel.
Governments around the world need to talk to each other, and maybe take a leaf out of the Greek’s book !
News regarding Virgin Atlantic Flying Club members
Virgin Atlantic announced a further status and voucher extension, the third since the pandemic begun. All members will receive an additional three months of status.
This is good news for so many frequent flyers. I would think all airlines will do similar, as everybody is looking to keep their existing customers, and attract new ones.
Thanks for reading
Kind regards
