If it turns into a major pandemic, we will be as vunerable here as we are in Turkey.
Afterall we are staying in one of the nicest hotels in Antalya and only going on brief excursions outside the city. Not going to work on a chicken farm for the week.

Sorry guys, I need a more thourough answer!
The predicament I'm in is that Dee won't part with any money to book this trip now, unless there were some sort of guarantees in place IF the trip had to be cancelled. I've had no reply from David Bell on the matter. The longer I wait, the less chance of getting a double room etc etc as we did not pay the initial €150 deposit.

You'll need confirmation from David on that. cc Terry also.
Otherwise its down to your own travel insurance, it may be able to offer cover.

All you can do is keep emailing him, maybe give him a ring, but I'd be willing to bet you will not get any such re-assurance, of course I could be wrong.
