Still looking forward to this year's holiday ?
« on: April 07, 2021, 08:08:51 AM »
COVID-19 cases in Turkey hit a daily 49,584 on Tuesday, the highest figure since the beginning of the pandemic.

Daily infections have doubled in a little over two weeks, meaning Turkey now tops European countries for daily infections and ranks second worldwide after India, according to data provided by Worldometer.

Well that’s really depressing and my flight out even as late as September 11th looks
Increasingly in doubt☹️
The thought of being stuck here at home doing even more gardening and decorating rather than
Spending 7 weeks out at our villa really p...ss.s me off. 😤😤

The attitude of Tourism minister Mehmet Ersoy of wanting people into the country regardless of whether being vaccinated flies in the face of the reality of the current infections in Turkey.

Agree with all said, what a bummer just as we were turning the corner. Our thoughts go out to all our Turkish friends. :angel:

Never mind eh ? At least you've got a good chance of the TL dropping to 12 to the £, or maybe even lower, by the time you get out there.   ;)

It's a 'Red' from me Phil.

Skyscanner's already showing Turkey as a 'Red' if travelling from the UK.
