Belmopan. April 5, 2020.
Effective today, April 5th, all borders are also closed to Belizean nationals seeking to enter the country. This decision was made by the Government of Belize with unanimous support from the National Oversight Committee to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Belizeans will only be allowed entry into the country for the purposes of an emergency or seeking emergency medical care.
This new measure will last for the duration of the national state of emergency.
Belizeans in-country are reminded that all borders remain closed for exiting the country.
Ends

Trying to find information about a “possible” flight from American Airlines on May 7th (for which I am not booked on yet)…
Someone (ticket holder for that flight) still tells me their flight is confirmed for May 7th and this “confirmation” is coming from a U.A. employee in the USA.
I have looked on UA website and they currently are taking bookings for those flights BUT.. with a clear message saying that bookings can be changed, at no cost, if the flight is cancelled…. so that leads me to believe it will be cancelled as did the previously “confirmed flights” and will be postponed to an undetermined date…..
Do you have any information on this specific flight or on ANY other flights coming into PGIA early May ??
(As going to Cancun by land is not even an option at this point and Canada doesn’t seem to be planning any flights here to bring Canadians back home)…. this UA flight might be me only chance to leave…
Thanks.
We suggest you contact the specific airline as it relates to flights. We are currently following the guidelines set by the Government of Belize for the month of April. Any further updates that are given by the Government of Belize as it relates to international travel will be updated here on our COVID-19 thread.

Hello, I am a Belizean student who is currently trying to return home from New Mexico, USA. Do you know of any airlines that are allowed to enter Belize? When will nationals/citizens be allowed to return? And, if we can return, can we self-quarantine and not with the government?
