Tens of thousands of Brits canceled their cruise vacations and New Year’s ski trips yesterday as European border restrictions were tightened.

Crystal Ski, the UK’s largest winter sports operator, canceled its departures to Austria next week after local ministers tightened their stance on arrivals from the UK.

Anyone arriving from the UK will have to provide evidence from tomorrow that they have been double-vaccinated, have received a booster and have a negative PCR test. Anyone who does not meet the criteria has to be quarantined for ten days.

A spokesman for the operator said: “Due to the short notice of this announcement and the difficulties in getting a PCR test over the holidays, we have unfortunately made the difficult decision to cancel our Austrian vacation with a departure on December 27th
