And it’s not just about getting tourists to the island safety. If the population on the island isn’t vaccinated tourists will fear re-infection, or a new peak in cases. This would result in the island being forced to close again - making any bookings high risk. So with Mallorca’s vaccination rate lagging behind the competition in Greece Malta Italy and Turkey - tourists will book safer, more vaccinated areas. In addition in to this the UK has already stated ‘green countries’ will have to have a vaccinated population of at least 50 per cent. Mallorca is far too slow - on all levels.
That won't help tourism here though, we can't have any tourists until we're all vaccinated surely.
I have 2 Majorca holidays provisionally booked for 2022 and I intend to cancel both of them if vaccine passports are required. Be very careful about destroying your holiday industry!
