So ... end of holiday. You've reached your resort airport in a super-hot Mediterranean country. You trek across to the terminal with your luggage, dripping with perspiration. Then at the entrance to the terminal they say they want to take your temperature. And ... surprise, surprise ... your temperature reads higher than normal even though you're not ill.

What happens next? Refused boarding? Sent off to mandatory quarantine for two weeks? Will it happen again when you turn up for the replacement flight you've had to pay for? Will you ever get back home???

I'll be interested to see just how much of a blunt instrument this temperature initiative might be. Could be extremely disruptive in its own right whilst doing little in practical terms to detect cases of C-19.

Not sure I fancy risking a booking on those terms. Thoughts?
