Nothing from American or JetBlue for existing reservations that were purchased more than a couple weeks ago.

Not sure why everyone is so attached to one trip anyway.
This. Is. How. It. Spreads.
But unless they force people to stop traveling, those who do travel will just bring it back to the rest of us. You’ll be waiting forever if the think the entire US is just going to suddenly comply.
Because we are children and very few of us are willing to make even the smallest compromise in the name of the common good. Not traveling would help to slow it down and dissipate the effect on the health care system. Let's hope your kid doesn't break their leg or get in accident whilst all this is going on.
We need the government to step it all up. Airlines and hotels are not reimbursing people. I paid $6,000 for an apartment in Aspen to go skiing next week, I booked it through VRBO and am not going to get anything back if I cancel. Delta is also refusing to give me credit...
Shame on Delta. The airlines have been gauging the public for decades.

My biggest fear is that we'd get over there and somehow get "stuck" in a quarantine situation and he wouldn't make it back to his college after break.
Would you risk it?

you're joking, right? I'm losing money on a VRBO, but there are going to be a lot of low-wage workers who don't get paid leave who are going to be totally SOL with quarantines, school closures, business closures, etc. If the government is going to help anyone, it should be these people. You got your tax cut -- you don't get to cry about your incredibly expensive rental in Aspen (which sounds like it's almost $1K a night!).

If it's someone you care about, I would go, unless they are in a Italy situation then or unless you are in a situation where you would lose your job if you get stuck. My guess is that England won't end up in the Italy situation.
