South Africa travel ban.

No news from BA as yet, but with no one who has been in Britain for 20 days being allowed in, it looks like only the Durban flight is a possibility. Crew can stay on board or remain air-side, change and re board. With the 12 hour tarmac time at JNB and CPT, I can't see how those flights can continue. I'd love to be wrong, as I have a trip booked for June with accommodation booked at 13 months out and flights at 355 days to secure it.

(I do feel like an impatient millennial saying no news only 5 working hours after the ban was announced....)
