Cyprus holiday August 1st

Hi, the FCO will relax their rules for Cyprus tomorrow. We booked a package villa holiday for 1st August but Cyprus is only changing us to CAT B on that date. I am worried we’ll lose all our money because the FCO says it is ok. We don’t have insurance as we had annual insurance which ran out in May but we couldn’t renew as travel insurance was stopped. Am I right that it looks like if we can’t go because of the Cyprus end we’ll lose our money?

Thanks

John

     Cyprus’ beleaguered tourism sector got some good news after the government announced on Friday that travelers from the U.K. will be allowed entry into the east Mediterranean island nation next month without having to undergo a compulsory 14-day quarantine.

    But Health Minister Constantinos Ioannou said that depends on whether U.K. coronavirus infection rates stay at the current low ebb. 

    Ioannou said that as of Aug. 1 Britain will be grouped with 17 other countries including France, Italy and Spain from which travelers will be required to obtain a health certificate declaring them coronavirus-free three days prior to boarding a flight.
