The most likely contaminated areas on the plane are the belt buckle lock, the tray table and the toilet flush button. Around one in 5 people get ill after a flight The cold virus can survive for 18 hours on a surface.... and the planes own air con does not function at the gates ( on many planes)as the auxiliary system kicks in which spreads the germs around . Remember that many travelers from other countries will carry germs you may not be immune too... Also many airports are riddled with bugs and germs and we wont mention the taxis.... all this plus the snifflers and the sneezers

that was my point and so many people have the same experience....three years back i sat behind two guys who were coughing and spluttering all the way and i lo and behold i caught that Aussie Flu that nearly killed me.... When this anti body test is out ill be the first in the queue and just hope i have had the dreaded Covid . 80% of us are going to get this anyway IMHO unless you go and live in the Doomsday Vault for the next three years

Ill be the first on a plane out whatever the risk , just buckle me up

When Boris gets back i think we will be back to the herd route. Thats for sure . When the Govt said stay at home and dont go to work they did not expect 9 million people to follow suit... they planned for 3 million and hoped to go the Herd way. I agree with the Swedish way

We dont even have a vaccine for HIV and its been around 40 years let alone this monster .... 18 months would be a miracle. ... even 10 years would not be a surprise,. An Italian minister said today we have to co exist with the Virus . If flying comes back before Xmas it will come with health warning wrapped around the fuselage " enjoy this trip as it may be your last" . Lets face it even getting on an un packed train is a death sentence if you dont wear gloves Economy class will be the new petri dish.. I never fly Economy and even then around one in three flights i get some malady from the buggers around me. This virus is easy to catch and thats the nub

...this virus is not going anywhere now , its on the calendar now like seasonal flu. Prices will go up for sure and half the Travel Companies will be wiped out as will many airlines. The dark ages are a coming...

good ol Ozzy

I think it was Kurtz the Austrian leader who said yesterday that it is likely that no international travel will be possible without a vaccine , that may be applicable to Austria but i think this is how it will be all over. The other way is a Anti body test cert which is still a way off in the UK after all the Chinese ones UK bought are faulty . Just hope they get this sorted by October,

a polite suggestion , why dont you re open the other thread now you cleaned it up .. a of of time was spent posting that stuff

Are we talking the latest John Grisham or more Harry Potter

OMG she is so nice . this is around a year ago

are you sure thats Nila ...? i never detected any strange habits. She has a sort of twin friend who is a bit taller.

On LBC Radio they said the UK Govt advice is all hols should be postponed indefinitely

yes this is a big issue ... my feeling is that you will need a Certificate of testing to fly... otherwise the travel biz is a goner as it cant wait 18 months. Also Singapore just closed terminal 2 at Changi for 18 months which gives a clue

Check In Bar..... big dick and versatile as they say here she is in Situ

Nila from Bangkok is high on my list .... mmmmm...

I feel the same... the Govts will take advantage .. , if they try to carry this lockdown for a year , as some suggest , there will be civil unrest on massive scale

"The new issue life vest is under the seat"

my guess is that you will need a certificate to fly, at some point, either the antibody test or the swab test. The airlines will be the last business to come out of this mess IMO... i hope im wrong EVA are still showing flights in August but they told me to take a refund as its not likely to be taking off...... i had a years itinerary booked.. re EDIT ( i was going to move my April flight to August... she now told me to phone back on May 1 for an update and then see about a refund which they are happy to do)

shit , this thing may last 3 months or more..... one of the few things made in China thats free of charge and actually reliable

The WE thing was shown to me by a fellow member here , i dont really know much about the Examiner but it appears you do..... SKY news has just stated the same but even worse,. They claim that the real toll maybe 40 times higher ... China is printing fake news , its all bullshit. Eventually the Scientists will get a handle on it and some kind of trusted information will come to light . Just as long as they are not from China

The Daily Telegraph Editorial states that if the wet markets are not banned with all haste the next mutation could really wipe us all out ... China will become a pariah state or perhaps now is already in this Hall of Fame...

Tencent the Chinese Tech Company did some research and on Feb 6 stated that 26,000 had C19 in Wuhan . The Chinese Govt stated the figure was 300 and Tencent had to edit the figure quickly The truth is out there somewhere

yah .. just like China is " Communist"...

The Washington Examiner reports that some of the locals in Wuhan say that 20 times more deaths have happened than have been reported due to numbers of cremations and so on Unless they are all immune over there then one expects it will bounce back, if indeed it ever went away...time will tell
