- Once one of the world's most powerful passports, the US passport has weakened significantly during the course of the coronavirus pandemic.
- As cases climb in the US, American travelers are not welcome in many countries that are slowly reopening to tourism.
- This map, based on a New York Times article on where US travelers can go right now, and created and shared by writer Indi Saramajiva, shows just how few places American travelers can currently go.
- At the time of writing, according to the updated Times article, US travelers are allowed into 28 countries, mostly in the Caribbean and the Balkans. Many of these places require a 14-day quarantine.
- This map is subject to change as countries reopen and update their rules. It's also worth noting that nonessential international travel is currently not recommended in the US, so if you do choose to travel, it's best to check the CDC's travel recommendations by country.
