There's a TON of Canadians canceling spring break vacations in the US because of a Travel Advisory announced on Monday March 9th regarding avoiding travel on cruise ships. I have so many disappointed friends who had to cancel their cruise!
The Travel Advisory may not seem like a big deal, but it's actually HUGE. What it means is that Canadians will not have any travel health benefits if they're hospitalized and/or quarantined because of a real or suspected case(s).
I'm not sure if US advisories affect travel insurance to foreign countries in the same way as it affects us Canadians, but i would suspect they do.
So the question is, what happens if Canada adds the US to the list of Travel Advisories? The US currently only has 1000 cases - but that's the same number Italy had a couple of weeks ago. I'm thinking it's eventually gonna happen...
And if it does happen, are Canadians gonna roll the dice and travel anyway?
We leave in 4 days for DLC. I think we're safe, but who knows? Cancelling would be devastating, but so would a hefty medical bill!
Would love to hear from other Canadians!
