If you have nothing booked and the money is not "frozen", you should not book anything at all for this year.

Personally, my opinion is that by the end of August, regardless of the situation with covid, charters will fly to Egypt from Ukraine. Something will change, masks in airports, airplanes, hotel occupancy. But no more.
We moved one tour from May to the end of September to Turkey, on the same conditions, without additional payments at all. Pegast operator.
The second stayed in Spain at the beginning of September. It is possible to reschedule to any date until 12/31/2021, except New Year. also free of charge. Coral Travel

So far, seven hotels in Hurghada have received official permission to resume work for domestic tourism.
Since May 25, quarantine has been tightened in Egypt, the mask regime is now mandatory, the curfew begins at 17-00 - and this is all after the previously promised opening of hotels from May 15 or 20.
The situation is difficult to predict, so I would not rush to book for August.

Wait, what's the hurry? If Egypt is opened for us, charters will be regular. Therefore, I don’t think there will be a stir, since only 19 or 20 hotels in all of Egypt have passed the test. Of these, there are 7-8 pieces in Hurghada.

If it weren’t for the situation with the fact that the money is frozen, then this year I wouldn’t consider any vacation at all, either locally or abroad, and not because I’m afraid, but for reasons that can ruin it. Mask mode, the question of arrival of self-isolation for 14 days is still open, whether they will do a covid test in Egypt and other countries or not, or require a certificate (we have the cheapest test 2200 UAH per person ...) And it is not clear how and what will be if someone gets sick or the test shows a positive result or ... there are many more different questions. Do you need it??? I just want to use my previously deposited (the tour was postponed to September) money and wait for everything to work out. And then they promise us another wave, and so on .....

Many TOoperators carry without problems. We have Anex. But I would not be in a hurry, wait for the pioneers, we will find out what the requirements and rules are and whether it is worth it this year!
If this booking had not happened to me on March 10, and the next day the borders were closed, if I had decided, then only back to back, no more than 14 days before the vacation! And well-established work there, without guessing how it will be.

They tightened the regime only for a few days because they have a big holiday. Even cooler in Turkey 4 days curfew and no one leaves the house for 4 days
In Sharm, no one walks down the street in masks, only if they go to a store or a pharmacy. And if this is some kind of shop and mini store, then there are no masks

Yesterday on TV in the news it was reported that Egypt will be able to receive Ukrainian tourists not earlier than autumn, but it will be seen there. Now Egyptian hotels are preparing to accept only their local holidaymakers. My advice: Don't rush to book. And since autumn, there is a high probability of a second wave of Coronovirus.

We were supposed to fly on March 15th. Rebooked with a surcharge for the end of August, because. then it was possible to change departure dates only until the end of September. If everything had not been already paid for, then this year I would not have flown.

Moved from May 23 to September 21 without problems. I changed the hotel to a higher level and it was cheaper. I hope everything will be back to normal by then. Well, at least between the first and second waves ...

They will open Egypt and Turkey, and maybe even someone from Schengen, and upon arrival home they will say 14 days of isolation! Do I need it? Okay me, I'm a freelance artist, and all the other members of the family? Homes are more secure. Book Ukraine!

And on TV they said that upon returning from Egypt (when they open it for recreation in the fall) - 2 weeks of mandatory self-isolation. You need to think carefully about whether a week of rest in Egypt is worth it, then to sit at home for 2 weeks in isolation.

Scurra-2, you book and there is a choice of what to book (to be honest, I wouldn’t go to local resorts today b, because if you need to prove that you cleaned everything up and get a certificate about it, then we have it for sure no one will make a marafet hard and definitely.And the eternal problem of our resorts is the intestines, rotovirus, and covid has been added to them ... And if I didn’t freeze a very frail amount, I wouldn’t talk about rest at all I thought neither we nor over the hill ...

In the next branch, the topic of self-isolation upon arrival from the resort has already been discussed. I repeat that by the fall another 100 times everything will change. and it seems like self-isolation will be applied until June 22, and after (if there is no extension of quarantine) it will be canceled.

Well, I'll go to Trskavets for sure. It's not so much rest as treatment. And I really like Mirotel, even before the corona, even after. But in Odessa, I booked for the first time. My husband has a friend in September and he really does not want to be at home. Ask for somewhere. I found something at a more or less sane price, although he really liked Maristella. But, I’m not canceling Greece yet. If there is no 14-day return observation, we take a chance!

And I, although I didn’t really want to, but transferred money for a Turkish (half-paid) tour to a Ukrainian hotel in Koblevo. Coral gave the go-ahead for such a replacement. Just enough money for accommodation and meals Full Board (travel at our expense) in a good new hotel with swimming pools on the very seashore. It is clear that this is not Turkey ... But with all these possible self-isolations, tests, etc., I decided not to risk it.

And yet, maybe you'll be lucky and a theater will work in Odessa. Really want to! And then I was in Vienna, and in Paris, and where else I was, but in Odessa it didn’t happen! I don't like the black sea.

I would not plan a vacation in Egypt for August. Before autumn-winter in the resorts of the Red Sea, everything is unlikely to return to normal.

We booked a tour to Sharm for October. My travel agent advised me to do it now, as prices will skyrocket once the flight program resumes. In hotels, occupancy will be only 50%.
