But while it may sound brilliant, you might want to wait a bit to book the vacation trip.
– It is absolutely permissible to dream and play with the idea of a vacation with sun and heat.

It’s risky to book a trip now, says Andreas Bibow Handeland at European Travel Insurance in a press release.
It can be left with the invoice
Because it can be expensive to book a trip abroad if it is in red on both the reservation and the travel date, he warns.
– If you allow yourself to be tempted and buy a trip to a country or area that is red, you run the risk of keeping the invoice for a trip to which you will never be able to travel. If the country is still red on departure, you will not receive valid insurance on the trip, and cancellation costs will not be refunded. This can quickly turn into tens of thousands of crowns and sometimes much more.

I would have had cancellation insurance

– It is an assessment that each individual must carry out. But it is the case that we hope to live with the pandemic also in 2021. If all goes well with the vaccine, both the approval and the production and distribution, then the summer of 2021 could be different from the summer of 2020, said the Minister of Health and Care Services, Bent Høie.

– At least I would have a good cancellation insurance, added Prime Minister Erna Solberg (H).
