Jet 2 Cancels flights again.

[Sadie]

Despite saying that they would be flying from first July, Jet 2 have again cancelled flights scheduled for July.

Because Cyprus remains on the Amber list

They will always take bookings in the hope that the governments lift restrictions, but they don’t then the inevitable cancellations come along.

I’m surprised that even against the advice about not travelling people still book and then get upset when they’re cancelled.

I seem to recall that the Minister said yesterday that they were going to remove the "advice not to travel to amber list countries"from the website but I dont think that has been done yet. Does any one else recall this-or is my memory playing tricks out of hope!

Your not imagining anything, in fact it was repeated on GMB again this morning by some other political mouthpiece.

As far as I can see still no change to FCDO advice on all but essential travel to amber list countries despite govt promise. Anybody seen anything more about this?]

Holidays are not that important in the current situation.

Well, Diocletian that's a broad brush statement. It seems there are many people in the UK who want to holiday abroad where the sunshine is more guaranteed than in the UK. But they don't want to quarantine when they return. Also the travel industry badly needs to get going again. Travel agents, airlines and airports. Hopefully as many people as possible will be vaccinated soon with two doses.

Are they not, as soon as I can travel abroad without quarantine on return, the UK won't see me for dust.

Yep, we're already booked for late September to mainland Spain but won't be travelling if there's any kind of testing at either end or quarantine. We have the option to cancel 28 days before our departure date with no loss of deposit.

Well in this spate of flight cancellations, I just had confirmation that my Ryanair flight to the UK is going as advertised.
Previously, I have had multiple bookings for EasyJet flights cancelled, and have stopped attempting to book with them. They advertise 3 flights a week to Bristol, but have no intention of operating them while the pandemic exists. Though sometimes they operate one of them...
For more definite bookings of flights to the UK, try BA or Ryanair.
