I know this is about a cruise line, but it got me thinking.... This was the post from the Seabourn web site very early-on what this was all happening.
Dear Valued Guest:
To protect the health and safety of all onboard, we are closely monitoring the evolving situation with novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Our medical experts are coordinating closely with international health authorities and together, we have developed a written traveler’s health declaration to be completed by all guests and crew prior to boarding in order to keep our guests and crew safe.
Those individuals identified as high-risk groups are required to undergo enhanced screening measures and additional prevention and control procedures.
These measures include:
- Any individual who has traveled from or through mainland China, Macau, Hong Kong, South Korea, Iran or Italy within 14 days of the start of their cruise, including transit through their airports, will not be permitted to board the ship.
The red is my highlight... Now that the United States is # 1 in the world, followed by Spain, Italy, Germany, UK, France instead of the countries listed above, will this now be changed?
Which really leads me to my nest question. Is
that how travel will "re-open". If you're from, or transmitted thru, certain countries and airports you will not be permitted in?
