Anyone not optimistic for 2022 trips?

When we went in November, it was 11 and up for masks - only 'recommended' below that. I know it's changed now, but it could change again.

Personally, I am not booking anything yet, and anything I do book will be fully cancellable if need be. We do intend to get there this year, but are thinking of waiting for the new Marvel stuff to be open.

We don't have any news on that yet, do we? I can't see anything from a quick Google...

We are booked for June for husband's 50th and I'm optimistic it can go ahead. I'm not optimistic about masks rules being relaxed though and that does make me nervous, what with the potential heat of June. We went in late May once and the heat was almost unbearable - and I say that as someone who is used to Florida in August! There's no 'proper' aircon in France, so there's no escape from the heat. So the thought of masks in that is awful. Fine if just on rides but if needed in the open air too it won't be fun

There was talk of a March opening date so it open before the 30th. But it’s apparently summer 2022 now.
We are booked for Feb half term, but very doubtful it will happen so thinking of moving to October half term. Thinking Marvel will “definitely” been open by then.

We're booked for September , we travel from Spain .
Totally confident everything will look significantly better by then, these few months up to March I feel will be frustrating .

Feb half term booked, if France doesn’t open I think it will
be a refund unless they let us move for free. No incentive to just pay difference with the situation as it is. Booking for Orlando soon for October 🌈

We have end of August booked and this is a trip for DD who was 18 in April 20 so it’s been a long time coming.
Hope we all get there🤞

Well I have just sent the request to cancel our booking. Will most likley try and re book for next year at some point.
Going to Lanzarote instead now, hopefully!

Fingers crossed for everyone who has later bookings

Just about to book for the end of April. If you look at South Africa, their variant is levelling out and thats been around 8 weeks, so things should look better by the spring in europe as the peak is starting to hit now.

Hopefully some normality around early May.

Just done the same for March. Could have left it a few weeks more to see what happens, but wasn't feeling it.

Omicron has a tiny death rate. It’s brilliant that it happened. Hopefully nothing more serious will now out compete it, and we should be hopefully approaching normality from Spring.
If Coronavirus mutated to become more deadly, the theory is the 4 that have been doing the rounds as part of the common cold for hundreds of years would also mutate up.
We may get Omicron mutating again to avoid immunity I suppose, but there’s only so far it can go and still be viable. This is just what I’m reading.
I’m really hopefully now we are in the end game.
Having just come back I’d say get on holiday and live your life, and whilst easier said than done, quit worrying.
