Not a holiday but I would love to be able to visit my family in UK.

Sadly, no. I would usually be visiting my girls in the US at some point but it’s out of the question this year.☹️

I would go on holiday if we can but think it's very unlikely.

No, we should have been in India for Christmas.

I really can't imagine a time when we will go on holiday again.

Only in the UK, and it’s a self catering rural cottage holiday that we moved from last summer to this summer.
Not confident to book a holiday overseas.

Under the circumstances with 36,000 people in hospital, travel anywhere should be off the list.

I think a holiday is totally at the bottom of my to do list! Admittedly I live in a beautiful part of the country which helps.
The vaccination is not a magic bullet,we will still need to take precautions.
The news of new variants that may/may not be covered by the vaccine is also concerning.
Maybe next year,and I'm someone who loves to travel.

We've been asked to speak to BBC Scotland this morning on holidays and how people are feeling about travel this year.
According to industry experts, travel bookings have begun in earnest and people are booking longer holidays and more multigenerational ones, families who have been unable to see each during the pandemic wanting to make up for lost time. What are your thoughts?

Once you have the vaccine will you feel confident about booking a holiday?
