Ooops, yes, I was referring to Vietnam, I hadn't realised that a key part of my sentence was missing! However this change had been officially confirmed two days earlier, so really should have been included in the IATA list yesterday morning. I did notice that it had been updated on the IATA site later yesterday.
Having looked through the updated IATA list of country-by-country restrictions just now, it's a lot longer than it was yesterday, and certainly contains all the information I have heard about elsewhere.
I was due to be going to Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, India and China next month. It doesn't look like much of that is going to happen!

Does the UK have any entry restrictions? It doesn't appear in the IATA list.

Re:Singapore, would be interested if airside transfer through these 4 EU countries counts as "recent travel".
Specific example: Scheduled to fly KBP-FRA-ZRH-SIN (same day). No presence in the 4 countries otherwise in last 2 weeks.

I am also waiting for specific guidance on transit passengers who remain airside and don't pass through passport/immigration control, albeit for the US. It seems as if the powers that be have forgotten about them.
They have also forgotten about TP/mileage runners but some might say it would be crass to think about them at moments like this.

Hey guys,
Oman... I travel there on holiday for a week starting 25th April.
I guess it’s pretty much cancelled.
I have a hotel that is a non-refundable booking. What should I expect... full refund or?
I have insurance through the Amex Platinum
Note: UK resident

Unless the UK advises against travel to Oman, no insurance will cover it.

As usual, details matter. Regarding Vietnam, it's actually the visa exemption that was cancelled (normally available to holders of passports from some European countries, allowing entry for 15 days with just a stamp). You can still get an e-visa or a visa on arrival as long as you don't fall under any of the other restrictions. You could absolutely do your trip, I've been to the first three countries in the last few weeks and (future events permitting) will be making a business trip to China next month.

The Czech Republic has banned foreigners from entering the country and all Czechs from leaving, from midnight on Sunday.
