The first was Germany, which with its lockdown light banned all non-essential travel, such as tourist travel. Of course, this led to the lockdown on cruises, with the company AIDA that planned to start right from Italy with one of its ships and TUI, which had resumed sailing in the North Sea.

Starting Nov. 2, the German government closes all businesses such as restaurants, bars, cinemas, theaters and even hotels. Non-essential travel is, in addition, banned.
The ban wanted by Chancellor Angela Merkel will last, for the time being, until December 1, and it is hoped that the measure will stop the contagions.
The British government has also chosen to close its corridors to non-essential travel, starting November 5 until next December 2. Boris Johnson had implemented a very lax policy for his citizens in recent months, but the second wave is hitting Britain, as well as the rest of Europe, and the prime minister has decided to strike back.
