LONDON (UK) – British transport minister Grant Shapps says that Britons booking a summer holiday will be taking a chance on the direction of the coronavirus outbreak.
Travel company TUI announced there would still be a summer holiday season this year and the provision of holidays will be resumed. The British foreign office is advising against all travel abroad currently.
“Right now you can’t travel abroad. If you are booking it then you are clearly, by the very nature, taking a chance on where the direction of this virus goes and therefore where the travel advice is in the future. That is not something people would want to take lightly of course.”
