What do we think Brexit will mean for traveling in Ireland and Northern Ireland?

What are your thought of how travel will be affected. Would love to know your thoughts.

Nobody knows. If you did know, I think you would have a good chance of being the next PM of the UK.

There have been other threads here on the topic and the consensus was that not a soul in the world knows or can predict or can pretend to know. I think that how the whole mess will affect tourists is not number one on Mrs. May's list of "things to resolve".

Ah. The daily Brexit question! As we have been saying almost daily for weeks - no one knows. Don’t let it interrupt your travel plans.

Who knows. I suppose worst case you have to go through controlled entry (for customs more than Immigration) but hardly a deal breaker or worth worrying about.

Awesome. I was kind of hoping that people would assume that it won’t do much. I just worry about things I can’t control. Not a good use of my time but I am hopeless. LOL.

I'm one of the people who thinks it won't do much. People will get up in the morning and go to work, just as they did the day before.

Ireland and Northern Ireland are all Irish. I think the concept of closing borders between the two is completely out of the question. Phone companies won't be in a hurry to change their plans. Neither country is changing currency. Bank ATMs will continue to spit the same bills as they did before. Your debit and credit cards will work because they're part of larger international banking agreements. They won't change unless and until there is an agreement to change.

Funny but the end of October is what we are going. LOL

Thank you all.
