Anyone got bookings that are impacted by the Coronavirus?

Had a mate who is fully booked to go to Italy in May, he is pretty much stuffed by the sound of it.

I've got Lombok next month and Turkey and Israel in October, Israel is stuffed due to the 2 week mandatory quarantine.

Yep...Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia in July...then South Africa next March. The July trip is a watch and wait at the moment and unfortunately pandemics is specifically excluded as a reason to claim a refund on travel insurance if we cancel. If the government declares any of those three as no go zones then we're ok but otherwise we're stuffed too if we chicken out.

Yep fly late April and travel till early June.
Fly to New York 4 nights,jump on an Cruise Norwegian Getaway to Europe various ports and docking in Rome then we hire a car travelling. up the north of Italy then over to France.

Sadly it looks like it’s not going ahead and the thing that pisses me off is we won’t get a full cash refund instead it looks like they’ll offer a Cruise credit only.

Hopefully not impacted, but will be traveling to Oz in May.

Singapore Airlines already playing silly buggers with flights - return flights changed a week ago, and just now received an email to say the inward flights also changed.

I suspect that will not be the end of it.

Yep, back to the old haunts. Kimberleys and NT in May. Then the far North Qld in October. Going to spend my money in Oz this time. Good time to do it with the current financial situation.

Mate, its a tough one, we have canned the Israel section of our trip fortunately we hadn't booked anything, so will just adjust to longer in Turkey and Cyprus. We are staying with family in Cyprus so that's easy. Turkey I get a feeling good get a break out soon being so close to Iran, and I guess the same applies to the nations you are going to BC...at this stage its wait and see, and just the feeling of discomfort on knowing you could catch this thing and be stranded.

My understanding is that if the airline itself bans flights into a country, then you get a refund, otherwise travel advice alone from Gov doesnt really cut it.

I certainly wont be booking anything else going forward at this stage, on top of that the AUD is a joke at the moment.
