My wife's grandma passed away in her homeland and she can't even attend the funeral over this shit. She's got a green card and doesn't even have socials, but these assholes have ruined travel.

Except prices, interesting side effect when demand is so low, it's cheaper than it's been in a decade during peak season. Still don't recommend, but thought it a funny but sad observation.
