It seems unlikely that there will be any airlines still solvent one year from now . :noidea:

 

[Saoirse]

True

 

[oldfogy]

Will plane fares double after coronavirus crisis?

Flights could restart before social distancing rules are lifted, meaning half-full planes and soaring prices

Now that Easyjet say they will be removing the Centre seats Will you be travelling in isolation? or uncomfortable 2nd class.

FYI

The F & C Office has posted confirmation of Pegasus flights to Stansted next week which I've posted on the F & C thread.

Comfort be damned - I'd check into the hold section given half a chance!

I have been thinking about it and frankly id rather drive out this year. If that's possable?

My wife is asking the kids and their partners to come out in September and stay with us. Frankly id rather drive on my own, (id happily do 14 hour slaps and sleep in the car, shes more 5* accommodation and 500 toilet breaks ) but i am hoping to convince her to drive with me.

From what we are hearing here flying wont be an option in most countries for a long time

Don't forget that you could face a 2 week quarantine each time you cross a border and you wouldn't have police permission to travel even to the next town.

Walking might be a better option

Agreed......nor do I understand why people don’t grasp it. Social distancing & isolation put to one side for two weeks in Benidorm lol it ain’t going to happen.

If ever - teleportation is the way to go, beam me home Scotty

I read a article "somewhere" that said travelling through Europe will require not only a Shengen Visa but also a medical certificate. So should not really be a problem driving, If my flight in September to the UK and visa versa is cancelled and obviously providing borders are open etc then I will maybe doing the same driving journey

The fault line surely is, if people are allowed to travel from country to country for a holiday by road, what’s the point in cancelling flights? It’s not aeroplanes or cars that are contagious....it’s the people inside of them.

Have you tried Tiger Moth airlines.?

You are baaad - you force me off topic and bring a tear to my eyes but sweet memories.

I used to fly those things back in Safrica but little room for passengers or luggage.

I bet the cabin service is dodgy too

Yay, a banti!

We did some island hopping in one of those in the Caribbean some years ago.

Weeding? Moi?

We've just paid the gardener for the summer.

just sorry there wont be any apricot jam this year.
