I'm trying to find more information about this, as I'm a tourist visiting the US flying back on Sunday. Does anyone know how this will play out, will they keep flying FROM the US to Europe?
- sub7 7y agoIf they cancel flights, you'll have to route via the UK. I suggest getting back to wherever it is you want to spend the next couple months asap.
- raxxorrax 7y agoThe levenshtein distance between tourist and terrorist is only 4, so my prognosis looks bleak. But fun aside, I think you are still fine. To my knowledge no flights from the US seem to be cancelled so far. If they really do cancel flights, you could try to use another route trough another EU country. But I think that is still unlikely to be required. That might change though, but probably not until Sunday.
- rendall 7y ago"The levenshtein distance between tourist and terrorist is only 4..." I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. Maybe people don't know what a levenshtein distance is?
- rmsaksida 7y ago> The levenshtein distance between tourist and terrorist is only 4, so my prognosis looks bleak. The distance in speech is not that far off either, I've found. When I visited the US for the first time, the border agent asked me what I was there for. Tourism, I said. My English pronunciation not being clear enough, he said "excuse me? Can you say that again? TERRORISM?". After that I learned to just say "vacation".
- jacquesm 7y agoYou will want to move while you can. I got caught out due to the 9/11 flight ban and that really wrecked my life for a while.
- wildpeaks 7y agoI'd advise flying back ASAP, you don't want to risk being stuck in the US during a medical emergency.
