Not a vacation but, I was set to go back to France for 5 months starting in May. I don’t think that’s happening.

Fortunately my neighbor in my apartment building there has a key and is watering the plants/collecting mail.

Had a late May trip to northern California planned. Flight with AA booked, beach side house on the cliffs reserved (down payment sent) but we have decided to hold off.
Looking like we will get our deposit back on the house but American Airlines is a different story. I may have to "Get Gordon" to "Get it done".

Just had a wedding canceled in Sonoma CA in late May.

SW took about 3 seconds to refund miles via app and we hadn't had to pay for our house rental yet.

We have a July disney trip. I think domestic trips will be ok this summer. Could be temperature checkers at TSA and entrances to places like Disney parks. International travel might be tougher.

I had a trip to Chile planned in May but the flights were canceled.

Reading through all these replies... I get the concern with May and June, but why is there such pessimism about July onwards? I think in 6-8 weeks this will all be behind us and things will be trending fully back to normal as summer starts. I’ve seen zero indication to think otherwise.

The only thing we have on the books right now is a trip to DC for the 4th of July, I think it's probably going to be fine, but who knows


We were supposed to go to dc the end of may and i dont see it happening, im figuring everything will still be shutdown.

Going to vegas in October for some shows that were cancelled last week. Fingers crossed.

Booked a weekend trip to Miami weekend of May 8. Everything is refundable but I’m thinking if anything lifts or calms down we will go. Will need to get out of the house by then.

We have a trip that is semi-paid for the first week of June. I think we will cancel and hopefully get a refund.

We also had a bday planned at City Park in early May. I'm sure that's a goner too.

I had to cancel Japan in April. Rebooked for Chicago. Had to cancel that.

Still have NYC in mid May and not optimistic.

Aruba in late June is more promising.

I’ll be pissed if still dealing with this for my late July Colorado trip.

Stopped planning my Napa trip in September. Got depressed spending more time canceling other trips than booking

Would consider road tripping those months, so we'll see where things are at. Also, I saw a steal deal for MSP-DFW and MSP-DEN in July, but gonna wait a little bit. I really want to go somewhere

My april trip to Phoenix is almost 90% not happening and I'm rescheduling my Asia trip in May (perhaps October). NOLA in late May is still hopeful but not looking too hot.

Why the down votes for this post?? Might be more hassle going through security but I think domestic travel in July will happen.

Booked NYC flight and hotel for first week of June right before everything started getting crazy and closing. I guess that's not happening.

Now I'm just trying to figure out the best time to get refunds. Of course I did the Hyatt pay in advance for best deal thing doh.

Just hoping I can use some of my other airline credits and stuff for other cancelled flights before they expire.

Two of my friends (may and early june) had to move theirs to august too. The annoying part for them? Its back to back weekends and the weddings parties are the same people.

I just swooped up $110 RT to Denver with SW in mid august. My favorite band has a concert set at red rocks. Im hoping it doesnt change.

I'm scheduled to go on annual golf trip to Lake Tahoe at the end of June. I think we will be ok, but not sure yet. Glad I didn't buy airline tickets yet as they are about half of what they were if I would have bought them 2 months ago.

We have a golf trip to Torrey Pines mid July. Thinking travel will be fine but not sure if the course will be open.

Fishing trip to Guatemala, paid for, is on hold indefinitely. Supposed to be mid april. Will go as soon as things open back up for travel. No penalty to change dates.

Also orlando in july. I am hopeful this works out.

My bachelor party is Memorial Day Weekend in Austin. Trending quickly towards not happening, but Airbnb is extending reservation refunds for trips through 5/31, so no harm in waiting a couple weeks.
