"I personally don't think summer season will happen! Unless there is a vaccine soon, it's not going to happen. I know some people on Fab have dismissed the virus in the early days, but anyone with any sense, will realise this is not like a flu! There have been many deaths here in the Herault, its serious. Everytime I leave the house I have to certify what time I left, what I am doing, and if I just want a walk, I have an hour! " Forgot to add I have to have the attestation in French with me together with ID, this is what the French are doing and yesterday's death toll was over 100 and has been steadily rising! | |||

"Thanks guys. No, I don’t the season is going to happen and I understand they want to keep some of the deposit but it just won’t be open in May. On another note, one half of this couple is a nurse who tested positive for covid tonight. Family quarantine here we come . It is very much real and will affect affect a lot of people. Although it’s near impossible, try to stay safe. " Good luck | |||

"From a French Government website Package tours, all-inclusive stays and independent services such as accommodation or car rentals that have been cancelled due to Covid-19 may be deferred for 18 months using the "credit note" announced Monday, the government said Tuesday. On the other hand, this measure will not concern "dry transport", Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne told the press after a telephone meeting of the Tourism Sector Committee, detailing an announcement by the Prime Minister the day before. "A credit note, valid for 18 months, will enable consumers who have bought their trip to be able to postpone it," the Secretary of State to the Minister of Foreign Affairs said. It will apply to cancellations "from 1 March" and "until 15 September". "We wanted this mechanism to be broad: it covers package sales (organised tours, editor's note), all-inclusive holidays, but also all players in the sector who provide independent tourist services such as accommodation and car hire," he said. This asset "could benefit not only travel agencies, but also tour operators, hoteliers, campsites or social and solidarity tourism associations", Mr Lemoyne explained. "The only restriction is that it does not apply to dry transport services", which fall under a "different European legal system", he said. The professional will thus be able to offer "an equivalent service, of a higher amount or several stays of a lower amount" and at the end of the 18 months, if the customer has not used his credit, he will be able to obtain a refund, as will be specified in an ordinance expected in the Council of Ministers on Wednesday. Subject to a "very strong demand from professionals", this measure "will make it possible to reconcile the interests of travellers, whose right to travel is preserved, and at the same time the interests of companies", the Secretary of State said. For "if all customers had come forward at the same time to obtain the refund, this would have led to widespread bankruptcy, as it would have represented considerable sums of money", Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne estimated. On Tuesday, the president of UFC-Que choisir called on the blog of the consumer association, the Directorate General for Competition, Consumer Affairs and Fraud Control (DGCCRF) "to communicate on the entire system and monitor its proper implementation"." Ah, this is rather helpful. Thank you. So hopefully we can postpone until next year without loosing the deposit if I understand correctly 18 months ? | |||

That sounds a great option, hope it works out and the businesses are still going concerns by then  | |||
"From a French Government website Package tours, all-inclusive stays and independent services such as accommodation or car rentals that have been cancelled due to Covid-19 may be deferred for 18 months using the "credit note" announced Monday, the government said Tuesday. etc......" So does anyone know... what 'dry transport' is? Would this scheme be available to UK travellers/holidaymakers or does it only apply to French companies and French travellers/holidaymakers? Can the French Cap agent we have just cancelled our accommodation with automatically reinstate the holiday? Just would like to know some facts before contacting them as I can't find anything on the web about this! Thanks. | |||

"We prepaid £100 so can survive if we loose it. We have had insurance but rather than fight for money we rebook it to 29 August cos we really want to go there for our first time. Hope all will be OK till August xx Stay safe all of you xx" Even if you don't get to go this year still go it's an amazing experience even if you don't swing. It's a very liberating experience, says the couple that are naturists. Just people watching is fun especially on the nights when people dress with as little clothes as possible lol. | |||
