This evening our President addressed the Nation with comforting words for those that have perished during the COVID pandemic and to those that have suffered other losses - Jobs, homes, finances, livelihood to name but a few.
As of next week, International flights will resume - however only to certain countries and with huge restrictions as well.
On arrival, you have to provide a 72 hour valid NEGATIVE covid-19 testing medical certificate and be quarantined for several days - all at your own expense.
Our tourism trade is welcoming the opening, however, we are hoping that those flying in don't bring the virus again - or more of it.
Cruises will NOT be happening in our waters and everyone is advised NOT to book any cruises or holidays in confined spaces until the pandemic has reached a very satisfactory controlled state.
So what is happening in your country with regards to travel?
Here's hoping we don't get any RED ZONE visitors until the world is ready

We were abroad just before the pandemic began in earnest in our country and just a couple of weeks before the shutdown. I don't know much about travel at present because I don't have any travel plans for any time soon. Most countries don't allow us in. Don't see that changing any time soon. .

Even if the flights are open it is so hard to travel and the highest point is extremely unsafe
