tried going to Medellin lately? Randomly more intrusive. By far. it’s crazy the things that they require one to do. But, it’s random. Some may get some may not.

One would hope so. Not to mention the fact that, ya know, as airline pilots, our own career prospects are not exactly disconnected from international tourism.

Modified or not just the fact that it was even suggested, and in some cases already happing to a degree, is choking US tourism. I’m not holding out hope for a good year in 26.

Since this has been requirement for visa travelers for several years, I doubt it will have a significant impact. It just seems to be placing the same survey questions to be in line with those that do and those that don't require a visa.

Have you met people before? They don’t read past the headline. How many 777’s worth of potential customers do you think heard the news about the original proposal and already decided to fly to take their money to another country?
