Return to sun holidays likely before end of the summer

People will have to wait to book foreign holidays as an exact timeline will not be announced along with a further easing of restrictions next week.

A return to foreign sun holidays is likely before the end of the summer after the Government said there was "good news on the horizon" in relation to international travel.

With domestic tourism expected to restart in June, allowing people to holiday in Ireland, the resumption of international travel could be permitted before the autumn.
