"The hotel itself (hallways) is a bit like a travelodge but the room we stayed in, 911, was really clean and the bed was really comfy. It was quite warm though so not sure what it would be like in summer."

Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to Mersea Island due to COVID-19?

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Mersea Island during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 outbreak has brought about big changes to the way we travel. If you're planning a holiday in Mersea Island, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:
  • Before locking in your flight, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by checking official government websites.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag and presented for screening.
  • To reduce handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than the bins.
  • If you're bringing food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
