As border closures and travel restrictions begin to lift, health authorities are reminding individuals to monitor themselves for any signs of COVID-19. If you are feeling unwell, it is recommended you stay at home. If you do decide to travel, follow the health and safety precautions and protocols outlined by the departure and arrival locations you will be traveling to/from.

After four months of quarantine, the world has adjusted to a new normal that includes face masks, temperature checks, and physical distancing.

From Aruba to Dubai, locations around the world have been preparing or are already engaged in easing various restrictions implemented in response to the pandemic.

While many regions are still discouraging non-essential travel, destinations whose economies heavily rely on tourism are instituting strategies to reopen for visitors as soon as possible.
