The holiday thread

Just looked at Ibiza, they aren't bringing it in fully until September 2026 so I will be fine in 4 weeks

Hopefully you’ll be safely back in Blighty before they run out of aviation fuel 🤞

 
In Bangkok on transit back from Siem Reap (go to SR if you get the chance....unreal place)

But have to say BKK is full of old aged Brits with with underage girls/boys or women of age who look underage, so obviously have a type. If it wasn't for work I wouldn't come here, its so sleazy, for all the talk of sexual deviants invading our country we seem to be sending all our sexual predators over there. Maybe thats the trade off
 
Anyone thinking about going to the EU this summer be prepared for airport chaos. Just back from Frankfurt and the new registration is absolutely ballache. 2 an half hours queue after a 1hr 5 flight. Also have to repeat the process on exit, slightly better but not much

Boiling hot day...bank holiday Saturday...what not to like?


This bit stands out...whats the point of doing this manual inputting..just wait for the machines to be fired up, I take it the machine bit will still have to be done next time?👇

Under the European Union's new digital system, known as the Entry/Exit System (EES), biometric checks including fingerprinting and facial scanning are due be introduced for non-EU travellers.

French authorities have not yet switched on the machines that will be used for these checks at the port but border officials at Dover were still having to take details from travellers to enter into a database. This in turn led to longer waits this weekend.

Seemingly there is not a "once and done" with the system, I have been to Germany twice and had to do it each time, guy behind me in queue goes every week for business and he said he has had to do it every time. Absolutely mental

I thought it lasted 3 years (or something) once you'd done it?

I wonder who won the tech contract? (£££££)

Maybe it will eventually, but its not yet, my business partner had the same issues in Spain.

Also it was meant to replace manual stamping, but you literally queue to register on the machines, then you queue again to have your passport stamped, both in and out. There is a feeling that when there are only 2 entry points/police checking out of about 20 booths that countries are goading
