I was going to head back home to the UK this summer, as I do every year (to see family & to escape the brutal heat, humidity & typhoons that characterise Hong Kong's summer months. Oh & to shop for in-person clothing finally available in my size, of course ).
My airline has cancelled my ticket, but I'm still trying to chase up the refund... it may be possible to just rebook the flight at a later date but, given how long it may be until international travel feels safe again, I think I'd rather just get new tickets closer to the time. I was also supposed to speak at a conference that's been rescheduled to the winter.
I'm very grateful however, because I had my birthday & honeymoon in Malaysia earlier this year & returned to HK only 4 DAYS before we entered full lockdown - we had been toying with the idea of extending our trip for another week. Talk about timing! Luckily my studies are online so that hasn't been too disrupted either - fingers crossed I get to attend my UK graduation next year!
