Wise women of MN, who probably have more recent experience of this than me…
Our previous Ukrainian guests are planning to return to Ukraine next week. I think it’s mad, given they’ve been here a year and it all looks pretty scary right now. But they’re adults and it’s their decision.
Child has got the pox. Obviously I don’t think they should fly as it puts people, particularly those immunocompromised on plane at risk, but I also don’t think that they should take their children somewhere where multiple missiles are being thrown at their city about every other night, so I don’t think they’ll particularly value my opinion on the matter. My question is, how likely are they to actually be able to board this flight? How likely is it spots will still be visible at this stage - how long after first appearing are they usually still visible for? I can’t say I paid much attention when mine had it. The internet has varying answers but usually focus on how long until they’re not infectious, rather than how long until they can get past airline staff without being sussed. Also, does anyone know how likely it is that airline staff will actually raise this even if they do see spots? Has anyone had experience of this or seen people being refused boarding because of this? Airline policy is that they should not fly.
