My wife and I and a friend of mine have a trip overseas this week to Turkey, Israel, and Greece that's supposed to leave on Wednesday the 11th from San Diego (where there are confirmed cases). Today things are looking more dicey than ever as the Israeli Prime Minister is supposed to announce on Monday whether to institute a full-quarantine of anyone coming into the country.

While I'm honestly ok taking the risk of getting sick for this trip, we certainly don't want to go at the risk of facing a quarantine or even having to figure out a plan B from Turkey if our flight into Israel is canceled.

We can get about a 50-60% refund (even without insurance), and stand to get more back if we wait for official confirmation from the PM (which we're doing until at least Monday).

I think my fear is if Israel makes NO announcement. Do we take that risk? Being from one of the US hotspots for it, we're concerned of being on the next episode of Locked Up Abroad.
