COVID-19 has definitely stumped travel and entertainment options, and there are hopes that life may return to normal again on the other side.

To whet the appetites of German tourists for travel, German newspaper Bild am Sonntag offered a six-page spread on holiday options for travellers, titled “Is the summer saved?”

According to the article, Greece, Austria and Croatia are among the European countries where tourism will get going again.

Greek Tourism Minisiter Haris Theoharis is quoted in the article as stating “the summer of 2020 is not yet lost.” He expresses the hope that Greece will be supported by Germany, which traditionally sends the highest number of tourists to Greece. He describes Germany as “our best tourism partner”.

Mr Theoharis notedthat the need to sign bilateral agreements between member-states as a European solution will be hard to achieve, given that each country is currently at a different stage of the pandemic.
