Deputy government spokesperson, Ulrike Demmer, confirmed on Wednesday that the government was checking the legality of a temporary travel ban. “An order to check if there is a possibility to temporarily stop travel to popular holiday destinations abroad…is now being checked by the responsible ministries,” Demmer said. He added that it was “not right” that some people were travelling abroad while holidays in Germany were prohibited. But politicians have expressed concern that Germans are able to stay in hotels abroad while it is not possible to holiday in Germany, where hotels and holiday homes are only allowed to offer beds to business guests.
