Yesterday evening, the EU finally reached an agreement about the corona passport for its citizens. With this passport (which you can get if you are a) vaccinated (once or twice), b) have the negative result of a recent covid test, c) have had covid-19 and have built up immunity) you will be able to travel freely in Europe, without having to take tests or go into quarantine.
The corona passport should be available by July 1st at the latest. Our government already declared they are working on it and all shall be in order in the course of June. As I'm getting my second vaccin next week Thursday, and my sister gets hers on June 14th, we'll both get our passport in time to make the trips we've already planned.
We can only hope that the number of infections goes down - as it has done for the past three weeks - and that by summer our country will no longer color red but green (or at least orange). If so, then perhaps Great Britain will also allow us to enter without quarantine. We have tickets for a concert in Birmingham for mid October, so let's hope the situation has cleared out by then! And that we can make our booked trip to the Emirates in the beginning of November. We haven't cancelled it yet, as conditions may improve. Right now you still need negative tests to enter Dubai, and on arrival you can be picked out to take a second test, going into quarantine until you show a negative result. Under such conditions, we are travelling. We've booked with the guarantee that we can get our money back if the trip is cancelled.
