Do you know where the 200 missing British tourists are now?

That depends where the cheese has been bought and using the old upright machine.

Raclette. Overrated in my opinion.

Rösti followed by Apple Strudel.

I beg your pardon!

They're probably all wrapped up in that jacket I was selling on Ebay that slunk off into the ether.

Emmental on toast!

MissAdventure bet my sellotapes down there some where!

...and my nutcrackers

Fondue, Toblerone?

Well it's obvious from GagaJo's link that they Brits weren't impressed with the Swiss food.
C'est en voyant que les plateaux-repas restaient intacts que les hébergeurs ont constaté que les clients étaient partis.

They did a bunk leaving their room service trays untouched. I wonder what it was?

No, I brought two students back with me.

Verbier is almost empty, so the reports say.

They may be down the back of my sofa.
You'd be amazed what ends up there.

Has anybody searched the attics and cellars?

Suisse: 200 touristes britanniques placés en quarantaine dans une station de ski ont pris la fuite

GagaJo

No one questioned my being a Brit on the loose I mean.

200 tourists + 1 essential worker.

Have you gone back early before they shut down the flights?
Hope you're not on your own in school.

A Brit on the loose!
No doubt someone on GN will have reported you to the authorities before the day is out!

And yet we are continuously being told that it's only the uk that gets it wrong. ?

The requirement for isolating was backdated. So some people will have been required to go into isolation after being out and about. And will have moved on from their first destination, in all likelihood, a closed ski resort.

I've just gone back to school from Verbier, but no one questioned my need to isolate so I think it is only the cantonal authorities and the police that care.

I wonder if they managed to get any proper skiing in before they went missing?

Anyone arriving in Switzerland from the United Kingdom since the 14 December, regardless of nationality, is required to self-isolate for 10 days from the date of arrival. British citizens currently in quarantine who intend to travel to the airport will need to follow protective measures to remain in quarantine; your local cantonal authorities will be able to advise on this, which may include avoiding public transport.

So where have these tourists been staying if they should have been self-isolating from the time of their arrival?
Why were they allowed in anyway?

On 20 December, Switzerland announced a general entry ban for all travellers from the UK, and suspended all flights between the UK and Switzerland

On 23 December, the Swiss Government introduced an exemption to allow passenger flights to/from the UK from 24 December for the purpose of enabling residents of UK and Switzerland to return in both directions.
Surely the Swiss would want them returned to the UK asap.

Echoes of a great escape.

200 people escaped without anyone noticing?
Was no-one in charge?
