We don’t have the booster for Spain

Sorry if this has been asked
We booked a trip to Lanzarote before the recent rules became you also must have a booster if over 270 (?) Days . We both have said from the start we will not be having the booster and myself in particular was poorly with both the first two main doses. We fly in June, do you think Jet 2 will honour this and return our funds ? Jet 2 said they will wait to see what the rules are in June. I would have not booked if I knew you needed the booster. I am prepared to take a PCR at anytime but not a injection..

I feel like I’m in limbo as the only other place Jet 2 go to with a PCR is Greece and I really don’t want to go there.

However, June is a way off yet and things change all the time, so just keep an eye on the Government site

I also suspect that the "270-day" rule will be lifted at some point as people will simply be expired and unable to travel. There is no means to obtain a private COVID jab, unlike, say countries that require a yellow-fever vaccine - not routine in the UK but can be obtained on request from travel clinics.0 -

I’m sure this will change in the coming months. The value of having had a booster many months ago is little defence against the omicron variant, so I can’t see much point in countries’ insisting on it.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages, student & coronavirus Boards, money saving boards.

Thank you all for your help.It just seems unfair to say have a injection or lose your money. I am going to recall Jet 2 later this week for their side again. In truth I have always found their customer service great so who knows.0

We travelled to Lanzarote recently with one son who wasn't fully vaccinated.
We managed to get a travel PCR test which came in just in time although we weren't asked for it at any point, we simply had to self-certify to get the QR codes for entry.0 -

Some travel insurance policies will consider a claim for losses if the rules changed after you booked the holiday and you are unable to reschedule .From memory Aviva is one of them . So if the T&Cs of your holiday booking mean that Jet2 won’t reschedule - you could try a claim on your insurance policy (providing the change of entry requirements was announced after you bought the policy )0
