Visa ban
Good day, tell me, is there a risk of not flying to Greece in September this year due to the events in Ukraine? Will a visa regime be introduced for RUSSIA to the euro countries?
Booked a hotel and now don't know what to do?

As the hero of one cartoon said: "Calm, only calm." Have you taken out travel insurance? If not, you need to do it, because. refusal to issue a visa is an insured event.
It was about the ban on issuing visas to persons who need a visa for work, and not for the purpose of tourism. It is economically very unprofitable for the countries of the Schengen agreement to lose a "tidbit" in the face of our compatriots. And the decision itself has not yet been made, you never know what anyone said and planned. Everything will be fine. We are also planning to go to Greece.
Do not panic ahead of time, where ours did not fall!

"Will a visa regime be introduced for RUSSIA to the euro countries?" (with)
I'm embarrassed to ask - and now you travel to the euro countries visa-free?
Everything will remain as it was. Moreover, Greece, which practically survives thanks to tourism, and in the bulk of the CIS countries, will NEVER agree to the abolition of visas. She's more likely to leave the EU.
аватар valodiaan
Yes, the question is not correctly formulated ((. Still, thanks for the answer)))

Malia is a good place, another very beautiful place is Bali.

We have already booked and paid for everything. Now we are waiting for what will happen after their referendum. So far we are not talking about ordinary tourists. But insurance against non-departure, if such exists, must be done. I have always believed that "not leaving" means not leaving home, in connection with some events in the host country.

We are also worried about this, there has been a "mulk" that the Crimeans and the southeast will not be given visas, and I have my mother for June, and my sister and husband for September and hotels and tickets, and not cheap ones, I paid. And independent tourists have insurance against not leaving? Although the air was taken from Muzikov and they said that it was "force majeure" and the cost would be returned in this case.

Members of the forum, carefully read the news, the EU threatened to stop issuing visas to those officials who participated in the execution of the Maidan participants and those Russian government officials who contributed to the occupation of Crimea. This does not apply to ordinary tourists. Read the news not on Russian sites and then everything will be fine. Have a good holiday everyone!

litvinova8. Insurance is the same for both organized and independent tourists. I read about travel cancellation insurance, this really exists, it costs from 3 to 10% of the tour. So not cheap. As for force majeure (force majeure), it is just the opposite, in this case nothing will be returned, because. the parties in such a situation are exempted from fulfilling their obligations.

If you yourself booked a hotel, you can also buy insurance yourself at insurance agencies that issue travel insurance. Refusal to issue a visa, hospitalization of a tourist, death of close relatives, etc. These are all insured events. The refusal to issue a visa is not a force majeure (force majeure circumstances), the money is returned in this case when the insurance is issued. The price of one Schengen visa, issued not independently, but through the TA, costs about the same as the travel insurance for the entire tour, in this case you should not waste time on trifles.

Poole, force majeure circumstances include natural disasters, strikes, revolutions, and in these cases, the parties are exempted from fulfilling the obligations stipulated by the contract. This clause is in almost all standard forms of the contract. In connection with the insurance against non-departure, you misinterpret force majeure.
аватар irina_1901
sent2008, I know what force majeure is, I only drive through TA. I read contracts thoroughly, which I advise others to do as well. I did not interpret force majeure here, although what is it in Ukraine? They say revolution. I wrote to litvinova8 that she was misled, saying that in case of force majeure, the money is returned. But the treaties say something completely different.

“I vowed not to take the Republic of Belarus, but again it pulls.” But Mouzenidis Travel, for some reason, thinks differently. After all, it’s not for us personally that they will be denied a visa, but for entire regions.

Oh, sorry, I inserted the wrong quote "Refusal to issue a visa is not force majeure"
аватар agent_borabora
When we provide a visa, we fully refund the money for the tour - this is our law.

At the Greek Visa Application Centers in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk and Mariupol, the applicant can apply only in person. The only exceptions are minor children, for whom parents must apply. The travel plan is one of the mandatory documents for obtaining a tourist visa in cases of individual tourism.

In accordance with the current requirements of the Consulate General of Greece in Mariupol, payment of visa and service fees is made only in the branches of the bank "South". Please note that payment is only possible after visiting the Visa Application Center and pre-checking your package.

At the moment there are no such prerequisites, Greece is not a suicide. And as before, RB for good hotels is a way not to fly with a hotel when there are no more places and tickets.
