Labor Day Travel: What Are Your Plans?

Hope everyone is having a great week so far 
. Was curious what everyone is trying to do over labor day weekend- flying somewhere, driving to the beach, camping in the mountains?
I was planning on going to buffalo ny for a long weekend of golf and fantasy drafting but unfortunately it looks like Cuomo has put a damper on that effort. Instead now I'm thinking about going down to the BR area. Nonstop roundtrip flights from seattle to Nola are $180 on alaska, don't really see any reason not to book that...

I’m on call so no travel.
Not sure I would do much anyway.

Trip to Banff got canned. Bummer, but we knew it going in.
So going to the coast instead for a couple days and then to Highlands for a couple days later in the month.

Originally had planned on flying to Boston then taking a car to New Hampshire and Maine. I'm not sure what we are going to do now. Guess I need to figure something out soon.

Not Labor Day, but I'm supposed to be flying to BR on the last weekend of August to do the exact same thing, but I'm thinking I'm going to have to cancel.
Huge bummer.

Yeah, unfortunately there's no way that's going to happen. The Governor here has put a serious kibosh on people traveling into the state without self-quarantining for 14 days.

Sorry about the on call status makers and the trip cancellation petti.
Breck sounds awesome right about now
Abita are you worried about the quarantine when you return rather than the trip itself?

Lucked up with my schedule and took the 10th off and I’m off the entire week of Labor Day and nowhere to go...
So lame... Covid can kiss my fat arse

frick. For real? These people are insane.
ETA: Double frick. Maine has a ban too:
quote:
"To protect Maine people, the State implemented in March one of the limited number of tools it had in its possession: a requirement that those entering Maine self-quarantine for a period of 14 days, which is a proven public health strategy to mitigate the spread of the virus."
I call it a ban because that's in effect what it is. Perhaps if it was a day or two, but not two weeks.

Pretty much. Don't think work would love it if I stayed home for 2 weeks because I wanted to go home for a fantasy draft.
But I also don't feel like flying down for a draft that may or may not even matter depending on what happens with the season.

Yes, at the end of July Governor Baker announce this Executive Order, effective August 1st. Anyone traveling into the state from a state that isn't on a very limited approved list must self-quarantine until they either get a negative test result or for 14 days. Punishable by a $500 per day fine.
We don't need you non-mask wearing folk in our state.
But honestly, I wouldn't recommend anyone coming to Boston right now. The city just doesn't have the same vibe and it wouldn't make for a good impression if you haven't been here before. Whenever I go downtown for work it's kind of depressing.

Labor Day isn't usually a travel time for us and won't be this year....at least my wife hasn't clued me into anything. We spent a week on a ranch in the hill country a couple of weeks ago and that will be mostly it for travel this year. We are looking at it as saving money to splurge on a big trip when international travel gets going again.

Utah has no ban and round trip tickets from BHM to SLC are at $170 right now. That might be our destination. Montana is good. Colorado and Nevada too.

Ditto for us. Labor Day isn’t a travel holiday, will just likely get out on the water or hang by the pool. By 2021, I’ll have a fat vacation fund tho. Short list includes Scotland again, the Dordogne region of France, Vancouver, and Montreal/Quebec City.

How would they know if you didn't self-quarantine?

I didn’t say it was easy to enforce.
My understanding is you have to fill out paperwork at the airport when you land and that’s how they keep track. But I really don’t think it’s being enforced much if at all.

Looking like Sedona. Haven’t been during that time of year. Looking forward to it. Travel won’t be great because I can’t leave until Friday night but two full days there is enough for me to deal with it.

Same for me. I love to travel, but Labor Day weekend for me is dove hunting and football watching (
) time.Posted on 8/6/20 at 7:53 pm to CuseTiger
Riviera Maya. $147 round-trip flight out of DFW to Cancun.
