The Bahamas reopened its borders to boaters and private aviation on June 15, and the first international flights began on July 2nd, the day after the borders officially opened. Now, just over two weeks later, The Prime Minister, The Most Honorable Dr. Hubert Minnis announced that as of Wednesday, no more travelers from the United States would be accepted into the Bahamas. On Sunday, July 19th, Prime Minister Munnis hosted a National Address stating the following: "International, commercial flights and commercial vessels carrying passengers will not be permitted to enter our borders except for commercial flights from Canada, the United Kingdom, and the European Union. This will come into effect as of Wednesday the 22nd of July 2020 at midnight. Bahamas Air will cease outgoing flights to the United States of America effective immediately. Let me repeat.
