(April Fools!) Excerpted from the British Press, 1 April 2017
In an attempt to curb visitor numbers and cut down on crowding in major tourist areas, the European Union (EU) will require visitor visas for all visitors from non-EU countries.
Visitors to EU countries will be limited by month of travel according to their country of residence. Each country (based on continent) has been assigned a month when their residents may visit Europe. No visits outside the assigned month are possible. No visitor can arrive in one month and stay into the next month.
The visitor schedule is as follows:
Asia - February
Africa - March
North America - April
South America - May
Australia - June
Antarctica - October
No visitors except from other European countries may visit in the following months: January, July, August, September, November, December.
This will take effect 1 April 2018.
The goal of this legislation is to limit over-crowding in popular towns and cities and to give time for Europeans to enjoy Europe on their own.
Visitors will benefit by no longer having to choose the time to visit - that decision has been made for them. Visitors will feel more comfortable in Europe with people from their part of the world (to limit culture clash). Perhaps they will meet their friends and neighbors while traveling in Europe.
