Naturally, Covid 19 has made the idea of international flights nightmarish (if not impossible in many cases). If you are nervous about taking a trip during these trying times, I can’t say that I blame you. I, for one, have limited my own traveling to only the essential. That being said, things do happen. Booking flights in the time of Covid 19 is sometimes unavoidable. Plus, let’s face it, flight prices are unprecedentedly low right now. If you have been waiting around for flights to get cheap before taking that big trip, now could be the time. To be clear, I am not advocating travel for pleasure to an international destination during the Covid 19 pandemic. I am not saying that it is a prudent decision … I am, however, realistically acknowledging the fact that it is happening and that it is partially due to the great value of low price flights right now. If you must go to international destinations during this Covid 19 pandemic, I ask that you try your best to go about it responsibly. Obviously, if you or someone close to you is experiencing Covid 19 symptoms, please quarantine accordingly. It would also help to familiarize yourself with the CDC guidelines on international travel. For all information on travel health resources, please consult my list of Travel Health Info Sites. For more up-to-date and current takes on traveling during these crazy times, you can always check back in on my blog … I update it regularly with plenty of realistic destination options, ideas for vacations, lists of great locations, and tips for travelers during this trying time. I try to add a new post to the blog every week — I truly hope that you will find it to be filled with great ideas and suggestions both during these uncertain times and beyond. You can also use TravelSites right now to plan ahead. Sometimes the best way to get through the darkness of the moment is to keep your eye on the light ahead. You may not be taking many vacations in the next couple of months, sure … but that doesn’t mean that you can’t compare rates, entertain destinations, check out travel deals, and search flights for closer to next year! If you feel trapped or claustrophobic during quarantine, simply conducting a search for vacation options, cities to go to, comparing prices, and entertaining plans can be freeing.
