Irish PM says people should not book foreign holidays yet

DUBLIN, June 5 (Reuters) - Ireland's prime minister on
Friday advised citizens not to book foreign holidays and said
the government had no date in mind yet to end its 14-day
quarantine for people arriving from abroad.

"I'd encourage people not to go booking flights or anything
like that just yet. That would be premature," Leo Varadkar said,
adding that the government was studying the impact of the
resumption of flights in other countries.

The government is due to consider whether to extend its
14-day quarantine for incoming travellers, which the Irish
airline Ryanair has said is blocking a restart of Irish tourism,
on June 18.
