I haven’t been home for a few years now and I’m thinking about flying back to Dublin for a few days!
I’m not that far away…. Just Edinburgh!
Is it truly as bad in terms of COVID as what folk are saying?
Every time I go on RTE the place looks proper f**ked like!

Overseas travel particularly for a short journey like that is very safe If you’re doubly vaccinated
Planes are Nano filtered , you can distance in airports , the journey is short , you ll be wearing masks
I recently did it no problem and doing it again soon
If you’re super worried get a ferry from Stranraer to Belfast then drive. You can decide distances From other passengers on ferries
There is no way In my book that people should be missing out on contact with loved ones because of covid . It’s a manageable pandemic now and all restrictions pretty much are being removed late October

"Yeah I’m double vaccinated.
So what your all saying is ignore the news! ??
Edinburgh is really safe the now! "
Fuck the news
Both governments allow you to travel
You need a locator form to come to Ireland
Don’t need one going back
Have your covid cert handy you ll need it everywhere
No need to quarantine
If you develop symptoms it’s a different story |

I have a friend who regularly travels from Scotland on the ferry to NI then drives to the Republic is never stopped and has never heard of a locator form.. Think that's only if you fly into Dublin |

"It's grand here now.. I'd imagine Scotland has much higher rate of covid..
Except Ireland has the highest rate per 100,000 in Europe at present "
Scotland a month ago saw a massive surge in covid it's waning now.. Its no differet to what Ireland is experiencing now.. Time to stop scaremongering and live life.. |

True , but association between cases and harm changing enormously . Having it no longer means getting sick or passing it on necessarily
That’s not to say it’s over , or don’t be careful
But if vaccinated , we need to all live with it . Travel since the 19th July is ok . I mean Nphet have no issue with festivals let alone a 50 minute plane journey |

Just pointing out the figures as they are not trying to put the OP off travelling home
Certainly do it and take the now normal precautions
Hope to finally get back abroad this month or next month also |

He is meant to complete one but that journey is never ever monitored
They take about 2 minutes to complete anyway
No tests required between Ireland and Scotland
U.K. travellers to the EU post brexit face far more complicated journeys form wise and tests wise |

It would be a sorry state of affairs if we were to believe everything we hear on RTE.
I'd say... now I can't guarantee anything, but I'd say you'll be just fine for a few days |
