What a difference a few months have made! Six months ago, the world was on lockdown, mask making had become a growth industry and travel remained too dangerous for many people to consider.
Belize, at the forefront of innovation, became a beacon of light for folks willing to risk short-distance holiday trips to a nation that quickly became known for its cautionary protocols that created a Gold Standard of health and hygiene measures put into place to protect travelers’ health.
By November 2021, people desperate to escape celebrated news that airlines were re-instituting Belize flights. Since then, non-stop flights have increased exponentially. Today, United, American, Delta, Alaska, Westjet, Copa, Sun Country, Southwest, and Frontier Airlines all maintain regular Belize schedules.
Changes you need to know
Folks who have visited Belize in the past find a mix of old and new. The Belize Barrier Reef continues to be the nation’s most awe-inspiring natural wonder, myriad sporting activities secure Belize’s position as the #1 Central American hub, and Covid-imposed industry cleaning and hygiene protocols remain in force.
Recently, mandatory travel insurance was introduced, and travelers admit to being floored when they learn that it costs only $18. If you’re a frequent traveler, you know this amount equals a fast-food meal at a domestic airport, yet the coverage is expansive. And Belize updated its entry policy on March 1, 2022, see our COVID info page for more details.
