work. is there any change this harmony will happen but as you said, will it be every country for itself? >> i can't see any harmonization happening this year. it's a difficult situation in terms of the uk where we have, for the moment, unfortunately, pretty much the highest infection rates in europe, even though we had the most advanced vaccination program. a country like spain just says, yep, you're absolutely essential. the uk for tourism here so you can all come in, regardless of tests and regardless of having been vaccinated or not. whereas, other countries like the netherlands, like germany are putting up the barriers to british tourists saying you can't come in except for essential reasons or you have to self-isolate when you get here. >> that was the independence travel editor simon calder.
