Ladies and Gentlemen,

Several airlines are accepting bookings for travel.

But, there are strict criteria one has to follow.

Most important of which is if the country you are traveling to will accept you.

Or if you have to comply with a mandatory quarantine.

Please make sure you know all the facts before leaving home.

Another side report

It seems it will be more and more complicated from now on.

I look forward to the EU guidelines, these will be telling as to what we American travelers should expect in Europe and likely other countries as well.

Emirates is flying later this month

They have stated previously that no flights will be conducted before July.

Hopefully things will start to look better soon.

Hello Saeed, if and when Zimbabwe opens its border to us infected Americans I am wondering if you know if Emerites flys to Zimbabwe with guns...I know that Emerites flys from New York to Dubai so wondering if you know about the Dubai to Zim with guns flight.

Nobody seems to have ANY info!

We flew DFW to Harare on Emirates year before last with firearms, no problems.

That's great to hear and thank you for your response!

Did you need to sleep in Dubai or did you connect to Harare?

Just thinking about how a layover goes with a rifle

There were several options for Dubai layover times, some too short for comfort. We had a 13 hour or so layover and we did take advantage of an Emirates hotel voucher and slept a few hours.

Who wants to sit in a 15 hour long haul flight wearing a n95 mask. Add in time at airport to get on the plane and time after landing one could be wearing a mask for 18 plus hours.

Won’t be fun.

Flying with Emirates, and having a lay over, does not matter how long, you do not have to bother about your guns, as they look after them, and taken to your onward flight.

People have been taking a lay over of several days to enjoy the city.

As Saeed says in his final sentence, a layover of a few days in Dubai is highly recommended. It’s an interesting place. Next time through there, I plan on getting to Abu Dhabi as well. You have nothing to worry about with your guns, they’ll be well cared for by Emirates.

Thank You Saeed...I might just fly Emirates anyway, as I ALWAYS worried about my gun with SAA. One year it arrived the next day

A couple of questions. First, how hot does it get there around August 15? Second, is it an issue to have an unmarried female with you sharing a room (both US citizens)?
