As they are monitoring the situation every couple of hours, I’m sure another update is very close.

Oh dear.
Only for Spain or everywhere ?
My dad’s on holiday at moment, and due back on Thursday, not Spain though. He insisted on going last Thursday despite me saying don’t go.

“Currently in Torremolinos out enjoying the evening when the police came in shouting and screaming brandishing batons - telling people to go home or their hotel. People scared and crying. Totally unacceptable behaviour - what has the world come to”
You sure they weren't BDO officials? Did they have maroon blazers?

Spain only in this case. But I won't be surprised if the same advice comes in for Germany, France and the Netherlands.

But apparently it’s business as usual on the Costa, so there’s nothing to worry about

FCO spokesperson:

“Due to Spain declaring a State of Emergency on 14 March, which imposes significant restrictions on movement throughout the country in response to the coronavirus outbreak, we are now advising against all but essential travel to Spain.”

NOTES TO EDITORS

We advise against all but essential travel to the whole of mainland Spain, the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands. British nationals with upcoming journeys planned should check with their airlines and tour operators.

Has he cancelled it yet?

Be a perfect excuse to liquidate in order to not pay everyone out.

Whether this happens or not for the few out there, lots of people will be wanting full refunds from money paid to the BDO for this event.
