Brexit 2018 - Travelling to Europe

Regardless of where you stand on the Brexit debate, two years ago many members were saying that they would do the British thing: Keep calm and carry on regardless.

That was then and this is now. Very few, if any of us, have had any influence over the negotiations that have happened since the last thread on this subject. It now seems that we are looking into the maw of a no-deal Brexit with all of the old pre-EU checks and controls coming back into force. (Yes, I am old enough to remember them and as a young soldier posted in BAOR, experienced them more than most.)

We have also seen the value of Sterling declining and the closer we seem to get to the precipice of no-deal, the worst the exchange rate gets.

So, will you still travel to Europe in the way that you have before, or will you change your habits?

Nothing  is going to stop us either its the only reason I own a caravan. However I am not expecting this process to make travel any easier.

There is to be a two year implementation / transition phase until 2021.

That might be a blessing in disguise.. The CMC can easily recruit fresh site-staff  Ones who would uphold the CMC's on-site rules and insist that they are adhered to by every customer

“Out” is no longer a political standpoint but a fact waiting to happen. Until it does, many of the points raised in this thread can’t be answered. I consider that’s what it’s all about and it may affect people who travel abroad even if they don’t take an LV.
