Yes, that Italy that went though hell in the beginning of the year, and that thankfully seems to have emerged from it. Since it did a brutal lock down. I have emotional scars from just observing it via web cams. I have no idea how hard it must have felt from within a small Apartment somewhere. Same with people in Spain. It gets to show that normal people can be absolute heroes. I am so glad that their sacrifices seemed to have been worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: One Mile at a Time writes, as usual insightful and interesting, about an <a href=\"https:\/\/onemileatatime.com\/american-airlines-executive-uk-quarantine\/\">AA executive that seems to have dodged the 14 day rule<\/a>. Not a good look for American Airlines. But they are pretty much a thing of the past at this point anyway. Eventually the big 3 ones will get thrown into &#8216;Liberty-Air&#8217; or whatever the US is gonna call the merged national carrier that tax payers will have paid 7 times over when this is all said and done. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UK has a rather reasonable list of countries from which returning travelers are excempt from the need of 14 days of self isolation.
