Northern Italy is now on lockdown until April 3rd. This includes the areas around Milan and Venice.

We are not scheduled for ABD Northern Italy and Switzerland until July 31st but that really does not seem very far away. In the U.S. as it stands right now, I am no way scared of COVID-19. I am carrying on life as usual including going to the Detroit Pistons game last night with 17,000 of my closest friends. But I am very cognizant and aware of this. And I am very aware that Italy is not a place that I want to go to this summer. PIF due 4/2/20.
We have a lot of money tied up with Delta flights. Many people think what Delta has offered is so wonderful. For flights to Italy scheduled through 5/31/20, you can cancel and use within one year from original ticket issue date. So that's November 2020 that I would have to travel if Delta eventually extends the time from 5/31/20 to 7/31/20. I confirmed this with Delta this morning on the phone. That is not reasonable for those of us that purchased our tickets far in advance. It actually feels like a penalty for doing so. My trip was a family trip and going somewhere in the fall is not reasonable. They said I could speak with customer care if it comes to that and they may be flexible.

I have also thought about Hawaii this summer but who knows where this virus is going to spread. Nowhere in the world is immune.
I understand that my trip is 4 1/2 months away but I am just thinking ahead. A lot can change by July but I think this is getting worse before it gets better.
And ABD, get it together. We deserve much better than what you are telling us. Heck your webpage should at least have some communication like every airline and cruise line does. Very baffling and disappointing.
i agree with you
unrelated.....haven't been to a pistons game since they left the palace....
as for corona, i was supposed to be in detroit for my sister's funeral on thursday, but couldn't take the risk..
so i had to watch from afar (the wonders of internet, even funerals can be 'live' streamed...)
we're on lockdown here -
the rumor is our health ministry is going to cut us off from the US as well, since corona has taken off in parts of the US (especially new york and california from where we get lots of tourists).
That will be kind of monumental if the health ministry pulls the trigger on that.
