Keeping Safe Whilst Continuing to Travel

A1 Lovely photo. What safety precautions are you taking now that you're travelling again? #TTOT https://t.co/BjmGnTwi86

A1: I haven't really done any changes in my travel routine this year. I just make sure that I have packed a mask. 😷

I was not sure if it's wise to travel to Berlin, as it's a big city, but we did & it was absolutely fine & fun!

A1 Only trip: dental emergency to Lisbon 2 hrs away. Friend drove me nearest train 50km & I travelled 1st class-not much more € but safer. I walked from Santa Apolonia station to Anjo Azul hotel (certified safe & clean by Tourist board) Takeaway meals #TTOT Image @SonjaSwissLife

A1 I agree- always the mask & handy sanitizer & vigilance perhaps to think about our movements. Like in the hotel, the reception took me to my room with the key in his hand & left with me with it unsanitized along with the door handles. Little things. #TTOT https://t.co/g488KoeG5L

A1: One step is to get informed about local restrictions.

And you might want to book more individual instead of a package, as that reduces the cancelation fees, if done right, in the case of a change of travel restrictions.

replying to @TravelDudes A1: Several booking sites for accommodations offer free cancelations till 6 pm on day of arrival. So if you buy a cheap flight ticket, it's only that amount you would loose if you need to cancel a trip.

A package holiday usually have bigger cancellation fees.

A1 Yes, and sadly for some, this is a time to book hotels direct & not for price but for receiving the max. in protection of health. #TTOT https://t.co/rYbAJbVm62

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @CharlesMcCool A1: Due to both me and my husband being high risk, we have severely cut our level of travel down (was at least 3 months of the year, now about 3 weeks total). We haven't travelled internationally since the lockdown in Spring. A lot has to do with insurance too! #TTOT

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @CharlesMcCool A1: less airplanes, trains, and public transportation and more road trips. #ttot

A1 Good point Hannah about the travel insurance to mention. For others to know that if a government has a warning NOT to go - the insurance will not cover you on anything in the policy. #TTOT https://t.co/Re8cjHm9Uk

A1 This is essential information for all. And both industry & passengers must be flexible to"readjust their travel plans easily". TRAVEL/TOUR OPERATORS can be the key to safety for the traveller. #TTOT https://t.co/AFh6w6wM1S

A1 Thanks for your input fm East Africa. I have seen a lot of effort into reopening airports safely & lodge implementing major safety considerations in your area. If the world could follow this initiative of responsibility, they would be now free to travel. #TTOT https://t.co/FVUZhzdw52

A1 I completely agree. The rules are simple & logical & this politicization of saftey practices is prolonging this situation indefinitely. #TTOT https://t.co/jyJJyfv2xH

A5. Check the respective country's restrictions and immigration policies during this period. Be safe, be sensible, on top of the various points that I mentioned in my earlier tweets on A1 and A2.
