This problem got dragged out today and openly discussed in Germany....because you have Germans hyped-up to vacation outside of the country.
So you (Huns) discover there's all these great hotels open in Mallorca and stage a deal for 490 Euro....to go fly down to the isle and stay at a half-way decent 3-star hotel (with breakfast and dinner each day).
The 7th day comes up and you don't have a negative to be allowed to board the plane and return to Frankfurt.
The new regulations coming up (starting Tuesday morning in Germany)....have a entry-rule....you can't board the plane home to Germany without the negative test already in the vacation location.
Two scenarios pop up: (1) the airport you are at....has no local test facility like they do at Hamburg or Frankfurt's airports. You'd have to locate a local medical facility and hope they test 'quickly'.(2) You end up with a positive test, and local hotels at the vacation area....freaking out if you attempt to return there and 'camp-out' with Covid-19.
All of this change business is worrying the airlines, because you could easily be standing there in Mallorca with 100 people a day....who couldn't get the stupid test done in time to meet the return flight schedule.
