We social distance, usually wear masks in public, and stay up to date on our vaccinations. But all it took was one lady with a mean cough on a two hour flight a week ago to ruin that…or so we think.

The timing really sucks. I had plans for my weekend.

      well yeah, it usually means throwing hundreds or thousands of pounds under the bus.

      Maybe if travel insurance did its job and covered it then we wouldnt have this problem

      ~30% of covid cases are asymptomatic so even if everyone who felt sick cancelled (this would also include many people with colds), it wouldn’t make “closed metal box with inadequate air filtration with unmasked strangers for hours” a good idea
