OR it will mean accepting that travel under the conditions I have described won't be possible for 5 years in the future (and, even if I come to accept that travel won't be able to resume pleasantly for 5 years, while I might take a trip here and there, it will be 25% of what it would have been).
I don't think for one second that it's going to be 5 years. Even if some places cling onto the restrictions, there will be many places which get back to normal quickly and the market will vote with its feet. If your usual destinations are closed or heavily restricted, there will be plenty of other places to go.
