Should we go on our honeymoon in January or postpone ?
Where better to ask the question ? We are torn. It's not a RTW Overland trip but after being stuck in the UK for two years, it feels like one. And it happens to be our honeymoon.
Me and the wife have booked flights to Costa Rica from the UK for 14th January 2022. We have to change planes in the USA as our carrier is American Airlines.
Since booking months ago, things have changed. USA is now requiring 24 hour tests. Omicron is spreading past. Holland and Austria have gone into lockdown and France requiring isolation of Brits. What next ??
On a positive note, the UK's quarantine hotel system seems to have been sidelined for Omicron. Which was a massive stress and CR was on the Red list for a long time.
We can cancel our trip within the next couple of weeks and get a credit note for our flights. We will lose no money. And re-book if life ever goes back to normal. Tempting.
Or we can just go in January. Gamble that the UK won't lockdown. Pay for tests, mask up on flights, constantly watch the news and try to enjoy our honeymoon in the "new normal"
What would you do ?
