A couple was traveling to visit their sick relative. But during their journey, different regions had different entry requirements. They got confused and at one point were not allowed to cross a border even though they had all the necessary documents. It was a very emotional and difficult situation for them as they were worried about not being able to see their relative in time.
I heard about a solo traveler. He had to transit through multiple airports. At one of the airports, the COVID - testing process was a mess. There were long queues, and the test results took forever to come. As a result, he missed his connecting flight and had to rebook at a very high cost, not to mention the hassle of waiting around in an uncertain situation for days.
Sure. A group of friends planned a vacation. They reached their destination but were not allowed to leave the hotel because of new local lockdown measures. The hotel charged them extra for extended stays and the food quality was really bad. They felt trapped and frustrated.
