August 2021 When do you think we will know?

[mushumadness]

Hi
So I know a bit of a guess in the dark, but roughly when would people be expecting to here if August trips will happen,?
Right now I think companies have cancelled to march so upto and including the 3 month mark?

Or trips August 1st to 24th, this trip was originally meant to be 31/3/2- then june then july then november and now August.

I dont want to think itll have to be put off till August 2022
Ive Disney tickets to pay and Im in two minds

I would say at the moment it is too difficult to predict when announcements will be made for August 2021 unfortunately - it is a case of watch and wait.

Im booked for October and have said see what situation is in April, if we have met target Boris has promised things will look good, if we havent then I cant see any travel this year! Plus need to look at how other countries are doing.

I think we will know around April. If this lockdown works and the vaccine works, then we should start to be able to predict when numbers will be low enough that we consider properly opening up.

It isn't just the UK's success at administrating the vaccine that will allow travel its the US as well, I am currently booked for end of March this year but know that wont happen, personally I cant see travel to the US being allowed anytime this year.

As for the Disney tickets I wouldn't be buying any at the moment, I booked with Attraction Tickets and even though Disney extended the time that they could be used from our original booking last March it means if I have to return them I will only be refunded 80% of the total cost (a loss of about £800)

There are 3 keys there, are we allowed in, and have you been vaccinated, and does the US get substantially worse...(so they start closing places)...so your personal risk becomes very low.
I think 2 of these are this side of the Atlantic, and once the US government starts to care about covid next week, I'd imagine them getting better.

We moved our trip from August last year to August this year.
Balance is due May 9th so I'm hoping things are clearer by then.
Hoping for the best but expecting the worse!
