Although like 99.9% of other tl;dr posts in this forum, I actually took the time to read yours because you took the time to do a little formatting. You also didn't ramble on like a crazy cat lady (who is actually crazy, and there's nothing wrong with having lots of cats, even if you're a lady). You see, I even rambled in the previous sentence, like a crazy cat lady.
Thanks for your account. One thing I'm surprised by is your last paragraph... TIMATIC and gov't websites are often out of sync... well, at least during these times... in the past they were much more in sync because there weren't changes every two minutes.
As for MR-ing, it's really about the destination and how things are handled during these times. So then it becomes a combo of the MR value of the trip, AND the intangible crap that you might need to deal with.
Also... 350K SQM? Not bad... not bad at all.
