are restricting entry from the U. S. according to a Coronavirus update in the Washington Post. Passengers will not be allowed to disembark planes. I don’t believe it says how long this will last. And in any event, they probably don’t really know.

Sorry. Mine is in June. Later than you, but I’m very concerned for lots of reasons. There’s a good chance the government there and/or Delta Airlines will make the decision for me.

Cyril Ramaphosa lists countries on South Africa’s travel ban “We will limit contact between persons who may be infected. We’re imposing a travel on ban on foreign nationals from Italy, Iran, South Korea, Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom and China. We have cancelled visas from those countries. We advise against all travel to the EU, the United States, China, Iran, the UK and South Korea – this is effective immediately.
“Any foreign national who has visited these countries in the past 20 days, will be denied a visa. Anyone returning to South Africa from these high-risk countries will be quarantined for 14 days. All travellers who entered SA from these nations since mid-February, are asked to get themselves tested.”
Cyril Ramaphosa Coronavirus could lead to ‘national lockdown’ The UK, Germany and Italy are among the countries most frequented by our COVID-19 returnees. They also feature on the list of places from where travellers have been banned from visiting South Africa:
The decision was made as calls to put Mzansi on “lockdown” intensified on social media. Calls to shut schools down and encourage South Africans to work from home are being echoed across the country.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Travel insurance is your friend.

Might want to check that EdM. I was told none of the insurance companies would cover anything related to COVID, and you can bet these companies will use it as an excuse. If you find one that will, please let us know as I'm still planning on a CA moose hunt.

Just received an EMail from one RSA outfitter. He is asking that his clients not cancel plans yet. He will update every 48 hours.
OTOH, a friend last Tuesday advised that he had heard that one outfitter had so many cancellations, he was refunding all his other hunters and not operating this year.
I know my friend probably isn't able to shut down for the year. He needs international income to pay to operate the farm.

Travel insurance is your friend. I have it, though I’m not confident it will cover this situation. I’m going to chill for a while to see how things settle out. And if the airline offers credit for another flight, say within a year, that’s not going to do any good because the outfitter is booked up much further than that. We’ll see what happens.
