Corona Virus has made flying cheaper. Is it worth it?
Young people are taking advantage of astronomically low flight prices because of the recent outbreak of the Coronavirus. Flights from Florida to Newyork are around $150, and flights from Chicago to Miami are around only $100. Is it safe to take advantage of these low prices and take that trip? Well, that all depends! If you are planning on traveling to a city deemed a level 3 by the US Department of State, you are advised to cancel all non-essential travel.
In my last blog post, I talked about the myths of Corona. You aren’t going to die immediately on contact, even if you happened to be exposed. Those that are at the greatest risk are those that are elderly, very young, or otherwise in some way compromised. If you wash your hands, keep your hands from your face, and take all of the recommended precautions, you are very unlikely to become ill.
On the other hand, many people have taken to Twitter to air their grievances of how selfish this can be. If you are to catch Corona, or are exposed, you may spread it to others that are compromised. Some sources have recommended quarantining yourself after returning from travel in these level 3 areas. But is that enough? Current reportings state that people can carry the virus for nearly 15 days while still being unsymptomatic.
It is safe to say that all non-necessary travel seems futile right now. But this will hopefully not last for long.
We here at Luxevo Vacations put your safety as a top concern. We will be keeping careful watch during this situation, and hope to be able to book your first vacation straight from quarantine.
Again, please take all the necessary measures to be safe! And maybe start brainstorming your next vacation while in Social Isolation!
