British Airways said it Will launch a "meaningful return service" In July , while Virgin Atlantic said the flights Will not resume until August.

But at The Moment , the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) is still advising against all non-essential travel to abroad, without specifying when the Policy could change.

A spokesman for Jet2, the company said FCO followed the guidelines and was "reviewing The Situation on a daily basis".

Jet2 declined to give details on the status of the bookings in The Next few months, describing it as "commercially sensitive information". The Bbc has commercial other airlines and holidays for comment.

the airline, which, it seems, witnesses to be confident in The Future of budget airline Wizz Air said on Wednesday that it still plans to the delivery of new aircraft.

"What, we can fly, we Will fly, because we have seen that there is indeed a need," said the airline's CEO Jozsef Varadi.

Pragmatic approach

Angela, who lives in Wales, is semi-retired and now works only One Day in the week, which you can do easily from home, if forced to isolate themselves. She pointed out that Montenegro is "pretty much the coronavirus-free".

"I have My Life in order for assessment of risks spent, either in work or in my daily life," she says. "The only risk is that we might get it at The Airport . "

she adds: "My fear is that Montenegro, who say, 'We do not want to well don't let people from the UK, because they seem to manage it very much. '

"But I believe it is now imperative that we support the travel industry. We need a pragmatic approach, how we do things. "

insurance fears

Another hopeful holidaymakers, Robert Jenkins , of Bedwas in South Wales , which is in the rule for abroad four or five times a year with his wife Barbara. "We Are retired, and travel is very important to us," he told The Bbc .

Robert and Barbara hedge your bets with not one, but Two Trips booked between now and The End of the year.

The couple are due to fly with EasyJet to Malaga in Spain on 1. July and on The Greek island of Kos on 12. September.

But Robert says he is ready to terminate, the Spanish journey, because "the FCO is not yet the starting shot is given and I don't know if I Will be assured".

He is also concerned, by the Spanish minister of tourism, the embodiments of This Week , which you can receive in front of Spain, tourists from the United Kingdom.

"I really hope that Greece. We have the same resort for 20 years, and We Are on first-name terms with The People in The Village , we," he says.

"But it's all up in the air. Things change from day to day. "

Anyone who is considering booking an overseas holiday to find their balance on a financial tightrope.

As always, if you like the book on a flight that is cancelled, stated you should be reimbursed, even though millions of people already have that, a slow, and the still open process can.

when you book a package tour also offers you financial protection, if it is cancelled later due to a second wave of The Virus , or current restrictions is expanded.

the insurance is more complex. Travel against Foreign office advice is still that nothing but essential travel should be avoided, invalid, would not make existing insurance. The implications for the use of the cost of accommodation, car hire and so on, but also the medical care has.

We still don't know if the expert opinion is collected. It is "under review".

Those looking for a new insurance purchase, regardless of the travel advice is often not possible to determine, that break it down for you for coronavirus-related topics, such as, for example, with cancel, because you have said that you isolate yourself.
