What happens if I test positive?
People should self-isolate and delay their travel if symptoms develop or a pre-departure test result is positive until they have recovered from COVID-19. Airlines must refuse to board anyone who does not present a negative test result for COVID-19 or documentation of recovery.


You didn’t answer the question about having to pay for 14 more nights in the hotel.

The attendant at the gate just announced that effective today you can get a $35k fine for not wearing a mask bc its now a federal mandate. No way that's legit right?


This whole executive order shite makes no sense. We got word at DAL that the gov't affairs team says this is legit, and now we have to be even more so the mask police. They say it is federal LAW, but it's being enforced by the TSA? Although technically Air Marshals fall under the TSA, so perhaps they are considered law enforcement? Regardless it's stupid and makes a horrible situation worse IMO.

What's your question? It would be up to the hotel. But if your question is do you get a comped stay on Uncle Sam the answer is no.

Seems like a good way for shithole countries to rip off tourists with false positives. And why should the other country have to keep covid positive Americans? They should tell Biden to frick off and come get his own people back

Probably not a good idea to visit shithole countries when Covid protocols are up in the air

This is bullshite. I have a dive trip to the Caribbean scheduled for June. My second dose of the vaccine is next week. I’m not going to quarantine when I get back. We need to get on with our lives.

And me wearing a mask at that point is stupid.

I just returned to the United States from an international trip. There is no way to enforce the quarantine regulation. It's meaningless.

Ya, that was expected when they announced it. There's no manpower or tracking system to make it work.

I really hope this is the last year of putting qtips up our nose to go anywhere.

You'd think I'd know this, but I don't. Who checked your test prior to returning to the US...the airline or the CBP at airport of arrival?

The airline at check-in. It was never requested or even mentioned at customs once we arrived in the United States.

Biden doesn't know a damn thing about nothing. If he did, he wouldn't have won the democratic nomination. He's a total puppet.

Of course you would have to pay for your additional hotel stay. That's what travel insurance is for. That's the risk you take while traveling when there are rules in place.

Florida appears to be doing fine. Maybe you should avoid travel altogether since you are phat.

As if the virus is not already in the United States. Might as well ban domestic travel if you are trying to "stop the spread"


I have been hearing rumblings about requiring test for domestic flights soon. Will see.

Back when Texas was requiring quarantine for people coming in from LA, the local PD actually showed up to my buddy's house to make sure his gf was home. Granted she could have been sleeping. Not sure if they would have gotten a warrant

My hope (not that I like this) is that this administration wants to look like they stopped this virus, so we should prepare for lots of dumb shite to come down the pipe. You can't claim you were why something happened without "doing something."

In order to claim victory, they will have to lift these dumb rules as well. Since it's the government, you can't expect that to be fast, but perhaps due to wanting credit, they will lift relatively quickly.

It sucks.
