Definitely not with the high number of cases in Florida (had their highest death count this week), our government asking to not travel unless for essential reasons, issues with insurance covering you, and the mandatory quarantine when returning.My AP runs out Sept 22 so was thinking of goin for a few days before it runs out. Anybody else thinking of going this fall?
Sadly this only impacts car travel. You can still fly freely to the US (and back). Only restriction is a mandatory 14 day quarantine when you get back.Borders are closed until Sept 21.
The border closure only pertains to land crossings (for Canadians anyway). Canadians can still fly to the US. Not that I would, mind you. Not with those numbers!In one month? I don't think the borders will even open. Even if they do, this is what CDC says
The CDC’s ensemble forecast now projects nearly 189,000 US coronavirus deaths by Sept. 5. There are more than 5.2 million cases and 167,000 deaths in the country.
This issue will not disappear in just a few weeks... or even months.

Plus we wouldn’t be able to get travel medical that covered Covid.The border closure only pertains to land crossings (for Canadians anyway). Canadians can still fly to the US. Not that I would, mind you. Not with those numbers!
There are now Canadian insurance companies that insure against covid. I just noticed it became available in August.
for a 21 day trip it cost $100. I will try and find link.
also the Canadian govt also posted an article on contract tracing last week and said there wasn’t 1 case linked to air travel.
for me I wouldn’t go to Disney now, but not because of lack of insurance or fear of air travel.
we just got back from a 7 day trip to Banff....flew from Toronto. Was amazing to travel there without the usual tourist crowds.

Thanks for posting that - nice to know options exist in case the 14 day quarantine gets lifted..
As an aside I just read a BBC article talking about Canadians being freaked out about Americans using the 'Alaska loophole' to visiting and I noticed something interesting about caseloads vs. deaths. Not trying to start an argument but I would have expected the Case Rate : Death Rate to be similar.

Good to know there are companies with coverage. Just know that most of these companies only provide around $250,000 max in coverage which you could go through very quickly if you were hospitalized and in any kind of precarious state or needed a lengthy stay on a ventilator.There are now Canadian insurance companies that insure against covid.
