This includes national or local entry requirements, health and safety protocols aboard as required by local statute. It does not include general debate about treatment, social response or opinion of or supposition about regs or upcoming regs. General political debate or commentary is entirely off limits.

Community Rules will be strictly enforced in this forum. Posts in violation of the rules may be deleted without notification based on the judgment of the moderators.
