Airports and ports open is needed for economy supplies but why in gods name is normal travel allowed in and out of the country can someone explain? It seems an easy thing to close down but they wont do it. |

The Americans have banned us anyway
I can understand why the flights are running
Irish people returning and pharmaceutical companies need the connections
However if you are due into Ireland as a tourist for less than 14 days your holiday should be cancelled
If you're due to stay longer then you should be put into Citywest hotel in Quarantine for 14 days |

It is completely incomprehensible why we're allowing Americans to visit Ireland at this stage, especially with the surging figures they're having. Every citizen has made sacrifices to get those numbers down where they are now. Why do we jeopardise those efforts for a few tourist dollars? Utter madness.  |

This is the perfect time for the World to come together to get rid of money, we could build a Star Trek type Eutophia where your personality and your career is your worth but you still need to have the intelligence and grades to do the important stuff, like medicine, engineering and all that.....can't be giving the Cletus' of the world those kind of jobs!!!  |

Yeah tell me about it we are making decent progress then it all can be undone a very bizarre move indeed but why would any nut job go on holiday during a time like this in the 1st place |

It's insane, and as usual I expect a decision about it in about a weeks time from the government to stop it.
Isn't it ironic that NY and Boston have banned flights from Texas but little old Ireland had a thousand welcomes for anyone.
I wouldn't like to be an American out and about in Ireland this week. I expect it's not going to be the land of a thousand welcomes they expected, and in fairness if they were stupid enough to think they could get away with coming and not isolating then I've no sympathy for them.
We'll be locked down fully again in weeks if they don't take action now.

Certainly the optics are not looking good. Immediate action travel from hot spots needs to be addressed.

Now is the time to flood ur local TD with WTF mails asking why these air lines are allowed to land these tourists when we have a travel advisory of essential travel only. Which means people arriving for tourism should be turned around if their stay does not extend beyond 14 days sur looking at the same four walls can be done in texas as well as city west.
There should be a compulsory isolation in city west and a few more hotels around our ports and airports the cost of which shall be bourn by the traveler that would soon sort the genuine nessiary traveler from the tourist |

I can't see my folks on the continent living in a country that has it pretty much under control but I will be loosing my covid-19 payment for the time staying there plus 2 weeks quarantine coming back. I fully accept the loss of covid-19 payment if I do so but it is a hard one to swallow when you see this happening.....   |

So normally you can claim the dole for a 2 week holiday but if you travel now they say you're not available for work under quarantine so cut the payment..is that it |

the government don't care at this stage, they are all jostling for power in their new jobs and are only thinking about money. Highly irresponsible.

I would have simply turned around and told them to piss off back home if they don't like the rules |

I think it should be made mandatory in all countries that you cannot board a plane without having a clear covid test carried out within 2 days prior to your flight, and quarantine yourself for those 2 days prior to the flight so that you don’t catch it, and have to produce evidence of a clear test at the airport before you get on the plane, like a covid passport |

Lads it's not just Americans that are too blame either.
I went for a walk in my normal walking spot with my dog over the weekend. This place would attract campers from all over the UK and France. And I couldn't believe the amount of caravans tents an camper vans parked up. It was that bad I barely got a car space. The place was jammed packed. And yes the Rosslare port would be veey close too where I walk my dog so its obvious they are coming in on the ferrys. All UK and French reg plates on them I only seen 2 Irish reg campervans there unbelievable!! |

Ah sure I understand they want people back to work and not holidaying abroad but you wouldn't expect to get slapped in the face at the same time. |
