MENU 0 Travel With Confidence home > What to expect on holiday What to expect on your holiday Travelling is different at the moment but – as always – your safety is our number one priority. We’ve revised our COVID-19 safeguards, so you can relax and enjoy a much-needed holiday. From deep-cleaning our aircraft to ensuring our hotels have the highest hygiene standards, here’s what you can expect... PREPARING TO TRAVEL There are some things to think about that you wouldn’t normally need to, like COVID-19 testing, pre-departure forms, and your EU Digital COVID Certificate (DDC). So, it’s important to check what your destination’s entry requirements are before you travel, as well as the requirements for re-entry into Ireland. If you don’t have the correct documentation at check-in, you may not be allowed to board your plane. You’ll also need to consider how many face masks to pack and be ready for a cash-free holiday. Preparing to travel checklist > Find out more about obtaining your DCC > More information on entry requirements > WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE AIRPORT AND ON YOUR TUI FLIGHT All our aircraft are fitted with state-of-the art filtration and ventilation systems, to clean the air and flow fresh air through the cabin every few minutes. It's really important that you wear a mask throughout your journey, even if you're fully vaccinated. And it may take longer to get through the airport, so it’s a good idea to leave more time than you usually would. WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR HOTEL AND IN YOUR DESTINATION All our hotels will be operating with even higher hygiene standards than usual, in line with local COVID-19 regulations. These regulations shouldn’t be too different to what you’ve seen at home. In some destinations, local COVID-19 regulations may mean that you’ll need to wear a face mask around the hotel. If these regulations are in place, mask wearing is mandatory. You’ll find more hand sanitising stations in place, you may see distancing markers on floors in areas like reception, bars and buffet restaurants. And, there may be some other measures in place to reduce person-to-person contact and ensure cleanliness. For example, you might find that you need to book slots for the hotel pool or gym or, that smoking may only be permitted where a two-metre distance from others can be maintained – both indoors and outdoors. These shouldn’t stop you from enjoying your holiday, and we promise to let you know if there are any significant changes that are likely to do so. Each destination and hotel will be different, but the following information is designed to give you an idea of what you could expect. It's worth remembering that destination-specific guidance – like rules on how many people can be seated indoors at a restaurant, for example – can change quickly. So, it’s always best to keep an eye on the DFA’s travel guidelines for your destination, before you travel and while you’re away.
