Fly or not??

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

If I choose NOT to fly, and overstay 2 weeks, or 2 months: as long as I have the cash ($10 per day of overstay or so), should it should be pretty straightforward to leave the country once I do decide to fly?
Just don't want to be thrown in immigration jail with people coughing in my face.
I would find out about this before making a decision. I'm not sure that the immigration officials would be ok with a 2 month overstay.
Once you overstay, you're officially in the wrong, so it's better to sort it out beforehand if at all possible IMO.
Also, there may be no more non-essential flights in 2 months. Hard to say.

Just had a look at the departures board on the KLIA2 website. AirAsia has cancelled over 90% of flights now.

Added to that, there are now no flights off Lombok. Got a driver coming in the morning to take me to Lembar harbour to see if the ferries to Bali are running as Jetstar are only flying out of Indonesia until the 23rd - If that fails it's time to buy a hammock.

you might think about stocking up wherever you are for the duration.
it is not feasible to travel now....
These temperature checks are not preventing any asymptomatic passengers from traveling...
the original Chinese Doctor in Wuhan died because he got careless around an asymptomatic patient.
He admitted it . ...
A lot of the tests are shit...giving false positives.
Quite a lesson every day it seems.
A whole lot more to follow.
My May trip back to the US to check my house is now July August...I hope....
I could not imagine traveling....the 3 flights...and 2 hour UBER to my house kick my ass enough already.
good luck getting home y'all....
