Dutch government: "Do not travel - do not book a trip before mid January":
The Dutch travel trade reports a huge raise today in interest for travel to the Caribbean Netherlands. Reason is quite obvious: the official travel advisory ban excludes that region. Travel out of the Netherlands is thus allowed to Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten, and to Bonaire, Sint Eustatius en Saba. On condition that they remain code green or code yellow. With code orange, a 10-*days quarantaine back home is compulsary.Passenger wrote: ↑03 Nov 2020, 20:38Dutch government: "Do not travel - do not book a trip before mid January":

Brussels Airport, your excuse is nonsense. When you expect that two lines will be enough, you must open three. This is no time for calculated risks. The staff costs that you have saved on Saturday and Sunday, will cause a loss that is 1.000 times bigger. Senior citizens who have read the above article, will now wait till there is a cure or a vaccine.
The EASA Covid-19 Protocol states "social distancing should be respected as much as possible". The European (or Belgian) legislator should amend this Protocol into firmer legislation "must be respected at all times. If not applied, the airport must close".

We install a night curfew.
We allow gatherings of max 4 people.
And then this happens - again:

I see that you have copied an article from Le Soir about the hustle and bustle at Brussels Airport yesterday. We have already contacted the editors of Le Soir about this, but the situation yesterday cannot be compared at all with last weekend.
Based on a tweet, the newspaper wrote that there were long queues, but the crowds were by no means extreme. At peak time yesterday, there were waiting times of up to 30 minutes, which is a normal peak traffic. Because of the social distance, the lines are longer, and a photo does not always show that distance.
We have noticed that some passengers arrive at the airport quite late, so we tweeted about this again to remind people to get to the airport on time.
Fear will not fade away as time goes by. Fear will only end at the moment that people are vaccined.Acid-drop wrote: ↑08 Nov 2020, 19:21 Scoop: belgians cant follow rules. Everybody has a stupid shameless excuse and everybody is happy.
Brussels airport is run by belgians.
Now, since the most likely outcome of this is that we all get corona before we get any vaccine, let talk about the future...
How will airports and airlines handle those who already had the corona and dont fear normal travelling nomore, including to the "risky" destinations?
It might be hard for them to produce a negative test as tests might end up positive long after the end of the disease.
Pax volume will only increase as 95%+ population goes through the virus without impact, fear will fade away, life will continue.
So. How?

2. There can't be a peak time during these corona times.
3. The place with the highest risk of getting infected is the aircraft. With queues like this, it's the airport.
