The Australian Government has recommended Australians reconsider all overseas travel at this time.
The government has effectively put into place a level three travel advice for travel of Australians overseas to limit the spread of COVID-19.
“We advise all Australians to reconsider your need to travel overseas at this time, regardless of your destination, age or health – if your travel is not essential, consider carefully whether now is the right time,” Prime Minister Scott Morrison said.
The Federal Government has also advised all non-essential, organised gatherings of 500 people or more be cancelled from Monday to limit the spread of COVID-19.
Globus family of Brands has suspended travel across its brands until 30 April and the Travel Corporation’s Trafalgar, Costsaver, Insight Vacations, Luxury Gold and Contiki have suspended all trips to Europe, the UK, the Middle East and Asia until 30 April.
