\"boats<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, as COVID-19 cases go down, many countries are now beginning to \u2018de-escalate\u2019 their lockdown phases. That means borders are reopening, commercial flights are resuming, international travel is starting up again, and shops, restaurants and bars are reopening. But where exactly can you travel? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mediterranean destinations like Greece, Croatia, Turkey and Cyprus were some of the first to welcome tourists again, while countries across Europe like Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, the Netherlands, Austria, Iceland, Georgia, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania have all reopened in the past months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What can I do to reduce my risk of catching COVID-19?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"adult<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of steps you can take to reduce your risk of catching COVID-19. These include washing your hands regularly, practising social distancing, wearing a mask, using a travel hygiene kit and staying informed with travel recommendations from the World Health Organisation (WHO)<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RELATED CONTENT:<\/strong> What to pack in your travel hygiene kit<\/a><\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to note that the risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. According to the WHO and government health bodies, senior citizens and those with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"adult<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Along with our enhanced wellbeing protocols, we ask that you please take personal responsibility for your wellbeing. This begins with packing any personal protective equipment and sanitisers you require.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also ask you to adopt physical distancing and hygiene practices throughout your pre-trip travel arrangements and follow all health instructions once you are on holiday with us. In choosing to travel, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
