'Amber watch list' to cause chaos as ministers say 'you'd be crackers' to book holidays
And if the country suddenly moves to a red list, travellers would face compulsory hotel quarantine on their return, at a cost of £1,750 a head.
One Whitehall source said: "You would have to be crackers to book a holiday to a place knowing that it could go on to the red list at any moment. "If you have already booked to go there you are going to spend your whole holiday worrying whether you are going to have to make a dash to the airport to get home.
"The decision next week will basically be in place for August. It is peak holiday season – are we really going to cause that much disruption to this many people?" Another source told the Mail that the Treasury had warned ministers to "stop messing about with travel."
