Ok, wondering what to do. I have travel plans next month to fly from Houston, Texas to Bangkok, Thailand with the connecting airport at Narita, Japan. I have spent a lot of time in Thailand for almost thirty years. This trip is a reunion of friends, my girlfriend lives in Thailand and I have many friends living there and traveling to there for a huge get together over st. Patrick’s Day. None of of us are overly concerned about ontracting COVID-19. What troubles us is not knowing what may happen.
What happens if after we arrive in Thailand a travel ban is put in place and we can’t return to our home countries. Anybody, thoughts or advice???
I wouldn’t go anywhere that I wouldn’t be able to go around a roadblock in my 4x4. In other words I wouldn’t leave the States.
In that part of the world it is possible a travel ban could be in place if the spread gets worse. Is there any way to get everyone on board to postpone the gathering? Personally I would be hesitant to risk it unless and until we find out more about this “bug.” For instance, why has it killed 30-something’s with no underlying conditions. A science type on twitter is saying the virus has a mutation or something with a binding method that is not found in SARS or MERS.
Very simple. Don’t go.
