Travel 2022?
In light of the war in Ukraine and the ramifications it is having and may have as it continues, the question I wish to have opinions on is both trivial and selfish: Is it wise to plan travel in Europe (including Turkey) this year?
Should the conflict spread into western Europe the question becomes immaterial. If it continues within the present boundaries of Ukraine, will travel become prohibitively expensive with ferry, fuel and food costs spiralling upwards combined with huge domestic increases for the same commodities?
Is it morally correct to travel (i.e. have a holiday) with a major war inflicting untold suffering on so many people so close to our own country? Has it caused anyone to postpone or cancel their own plans for travel in Europe this year?
