Further questions about COVID 19 or quarantine:

​

  • What if you cannot start your holiday because you are ill yourself, have tested positive for COVID or have to be in quarantine because of a relative living in the same household?
    Here we recommend the cancellation insurance of Europäische Reiseversicherung. You can easily complete this when booking. You will receive an invoice from us that you can present to the insurance company. This is also possible later at any time - please note: the insurance is then only valid after 10 days!
     

  • There is a risk of a quarantine of x days when you return home:
    Unfortunately, this is not an insured cancellation case. Please find out about the official instructions in good time and as quickly as possible, possibly also from your employer
     

  • Question: A travel warning has been issued for Austria, Upper Austria or the district of Kirchdorf an der Krems. What now?
    A travel warning does not constitute a ban. As long as there is none  If there is a closure or a ban, a trip is possible and therefore unfortunately not a free reason for cancellation.

 

  • Question: Some leisure facilities, restaurants etc. are not fully open and therefore we would like to cancel our holiday.
    Answer: Unfortunately, this is not a free cancellation either. You are free to withdraw from your accommodation contract at any time under the above conditions.

    Answer:
    The cancellation costs are covered by Europäische Reiseversicherung's travel insurance.
     

  • Question: A guest stays with us during his vacation  tested positive.
    Answer: IMPORTANT stay at your vacation home and call 1450. Arrange a time and place for a PCR test. You will then receive an official notification about your quarantine regulations etc. Follow the instructions of the authority. Please inform us now at the latest. Depending on your state of health and to protect us and other guests, we ask you to start your journey home as soon as possible.
