Thank you all for your insightful suggestions and good advices, but the emergence of this Omicron virus puts my plan on hold once again. When do you think people will be able to travel free as we used to pre-pandemic era? For those retirees like me clock seems to tick fasters as the remaining available time to travel appears to shrink faster. There still are so many places I want to visit and experience, and I want to go on my own two feet.
I flew to Heathrow yesterday and used the E-gates, no wait, no border agent, easy peasy. They have a requirement to take a PCR test on arrival instead of before flying, but surely that has got to change.

I am in London right now and except for the testing rules changing and having to cancel my antigen test today for my flights home on Sunday to a test onSaturday afternoon - covid has not affected my trip at all. Venues are open, some requiring masks, some not. been here since tuesday and having a wonderful time - even had a great birthday celebration GTG with Patrick London, flanner and kmowatt. Just take reasonable precautions

Viruses don't really think or have desires about killing people or not, they don't have brains. Or desires about wanting to stay alive. In fact, some viruses do kill almost everyone they infect (like Ebola which kills about 90%). Not to mention HIV, which kills about everyone except for pharmaceutical invention available now (antivirals). There is no intentionality regarding virus' paths of transmission.
