Curious Pax: Agreed in terms of where the winds were blowing and no way would I consider booking anything right now however there was no clear message coming from on high.
Airlines and airports were not getting any real guidance and that has led to different approaches.
With more airlines opting to test the market and offer possible start up dates, my impression is it has started to force the hand of governments to introduce measures such as quarantining.
Whether it is the right or wrong approach at the right or wrong time is open to debate but it might start to provide some clarity at least (both for industry and the travelling public.)
