Euronews, Europe’s leading international news channel who recently launched Euronews Travel, has released results from an exclusive poll conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies for Euronews in Germany, France, Italy and Great Britain, looking at Europeans’ attitudes towards travel and vaccine passports:
A large proportion of respondents across the board support or strongly support the introduction of the so-called vaccine passports: 53% in Germany, 65% in Italy and 69% in Great Britain, with a smaller proportion in France (39%):
- Those who oppose or strongly oppose the measure are in the minority: 25% in Germany, 32% in France, 19% in Italy and 12% in Great Britain.
- Around a fifth of respondents neither support nor oppose the initiative.
55% in Germany, 63% in Italy and 69% in Great Britain say they would be willing to carry this vaccine passport for „all circumstances”:
The French are more divided: 31% would carry the certificate for all circumstances, 31% only for international travel and 38% would not carry the passport at all.
Britons support or strongly support restricting travel abroad only to those who have been vaccinated against the virus (69%); a support which drops to 35% in Germany, 42% in France and 40% in Italy.
Four in ten participants in Germany, France, Italy and Great Britain say they do not intend to travel anywhere for holiday this year (46%, 43%, 39% and 46%, respectively).
When they do intend to travel, the results paint a mixed picture:
- French and Italian respondents prefer to travel domestically (27% and 39%, respectively said they would travel domestically) with a minority inclined to go abroad (18% and 13%, respectively).
- Germans are split: 21% plan to travel domestically and 21% prefer to go abroad. A small minority (12%) claim they intend to do both.
- While in Britain, 25% said they would travel domestically and 20% said they would travel abroad.
