My 2 bobs worth: Not gunna happen.

Numbers will skyrocket in the US in the next month, Germany now seeing sharp rise, rest of Europe not out of the first wave of infections yet, China experiencing infections in one of the most densely populated cities in the world, South America off the charts with daily infection rates, Russia serious problems and said to be wildly underreporting. Spain announced opening its borders to tourism - watch what happens there ! Off your trolley to travel internationally to or come on contact with folks from these countries as you travel in my opinion, unless of course you think this virus is a hoax or just a’flu’, or that somehow magically you won’t become infected and transmit all over the shop as you travel the globe.

Cut and dried. If you want to travel, you'll be quarantined when you come back to your country. Airlines need to be kept open, especially for business purposes, and people should be allowed to be with their families. Covid isn't going away, and the world can't afford a lock down any longer. Social distancing orders kept in place and any violators not allowed to fly.
