Sympathy for travelers ?

Off topic a bit, but should we be showing sympathy for these people caught out on holiday ?

Is dominating the news today, and several holiday makers moaning about how bad they are being treated.

Personally I have none really, for people that insist they must have a holiday, when it is clear this pandemic has not gone away and that trips abroad will currently run the risk of getting stranded or scrambling to get home.

The vast majority of the public seem to accept that, at least for this year, we have to put such pleasures on hold.

Thought people ?

If people want to travel they should be able to go but they must accept the risk. If they do that and take the nessesery precautions while out there they should be able to go without getting shamed by the houllier than hou brigade.

If you do your research you shouldn't get into any trouble quatentine wise anyway, for example if you go for a week best place to chose would probably be Italy as their numbers would have to go spectacularly south very quickly for them to be placed on the quatentine list in the next week or two.

I have zero sympathy for people travelling to Europe. Absolutely ridiculous in the middle of a pandemic.

I get Health and key workers may need a holiday, but should just take one in the UK. Everybody else has had months off work, so don`t really need a holiday this year at all. I certainly don`t.

The way this Government acts, why would anybody book an expensive holiday anyway, knowing travel plans could change at an hours notice.

I haven’t had any time off work, but also don’t think it’s a particularly smart idea to be flying abroad on holiday either. Can sympathise with those who booked pre Covid and may lose money though, those that booked after, well....
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes I feel sorry for those that booked pre Covid, and cannot get a refund. But those that booked as soon as they were given the supposedly green light, then no sympathy whatsoever.
