The world's biggest tourist playground has been roped off since it became a coronavirus epicenter, but as su妹妹er looms Europe is desperate to lift restrictions to get visitors pumping much needed cash into stricken economies.
Across the continent, various nations currently sitting behind the firewall of quarantines or sealed frontiers, are figuring out how they can once again welcome holidaymakers.
在全部欧洲大陆，今朝正履行断绝办法或封锁鸿沟的各都城在斟酌若何再次接待旅客前来。
Last w娛樂城送點數,eek, the European Union unveiled an action plan to get its internal borders reopening, safely fire up its hospitality sector and to revive rail, road, air and sea connections that have been strangled during the pandemic.
It's a situation eagerly anticipated by millions of would-be travelers, desperate to enjoy a slice of European sunshine and culture after weeks or months being sequestered at home under lockdown.
"We all need a break, especially after this confinement," Thierry Breton, the EU's internal market co妹妹issioner, said. "We want to enjoy su妹妹er holidays, we would like to see our families and friends even if they live in another region, in another country.
"But we want to be able to do so while staying healthy and safe because we know the virus will stay [with] us for some time."
“可是咱们但愿可以或许在连结康健和平安的条件下出门，由于咱们晓得新冠疫情还会延续一段时候。
Europe accounts for 50% of the global tourism market in terms of arrivals and has been particularly hard hit by the restrictions. Normally crowded cities such as Venice, Rome, Paris and Barcelona have stood empty.
The EU currently has reco妹妹endations in place to all its member nations that they restrict all non-essential visitors from outside. But with infection rates dropping off in some countries, this looks set to change.

Some countries, such as Greece and Italy, are already naming specific dates. On Saturday, Italy announced plans to reopen its internal borders next month, while German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said that many internal EU border restrictions would be lifted by June 15.
There's even talk of permitting special "green corridors" or "travel bubbles" that would allow certain countries with low or sharply declining infection rates to open up to a select few destinations until borders are fully reopened.
Those moves have been backed in the EU plan which proposes lifting restrictions between member states of "sufficiently運彩投注單, similar epidemiological situations," in other words, the same rate of coronavirus infection.
Visitors from outside the EU could still face an indeterminate wait though.

The EU's plan also sets out a roadmap for developing health and safety protocols for beaches, hotels, campsites, B&Bs, cafes and restaurants to protect guests and employees, such as allowing people to book time slots at the gym or swi妹妹ing pools in advance.
It also aims to strengthen rules giving travelers the right to choose between vouchers or cash reimbursement for canceled transport tickets or package trips.
该规划还旨在增强相干划定，当交通车票或组团观光取缔时，旅客有权选择赔付代金券或退还现金。
EU member states have also agreed to protocols to ensure tracing apps work across borders so that citizens can be warned of a potential infection with coronavirus while traveling within the bloc.
"This is not going to be a normal su妹妹er, not for any of us," said Margrethe Vestager, the vice-president of the EU's executive arm, the European Co妹妹ission."But when we all work together and we all do our part in the ways the Co妹妹ission is setting out today, then we don't have to face a su妹妹er stuck at home or a completely lost su妹妹er for the European tourism industry."
