Stay Informed

Symptoms of COVID-19 can include coughing, shortness of breath, sore throat, loss of taste and/or smell, diarrhea and a fever. If you are displaying symptoms once you arrive at your destination, contact your primary care physician or medical provider. You will want to review your company’s travel policy for further direction as to when it is necessary to contact your employer. Self-quarantine may be necessary until you can submit to a test administered by a medical professional. Testing results can be turned around as quickly as 10 minutes or take as long as several days depending on variety of factors, such as location availability, severity of symptoms, and healthcare provider used

All major hotel brands have a standard of procedures for guests with known COVID-19 symptoms. This may include additional isolation for the duration of stay without access to housekeeping or other hotel services. You will need to adjust to this limited ability to leave the room, such as buying a supply of groceries, medications, or other items necessary for a 14-day quarantine.

Some provinces (and most countries) are requiring travellers to self-quarantine upon arrival, depending on which province or country the traveller has visited or are travelling from. For domestic quarantine restrictions, cross-reference your departure location with your arrival destination using this interactive tracking map from the Canadian Travel and Tourism Roundtable.

If you test positive, you will be required to self-quarantine at your current location for a minimum of 14 days. Once that period of time has lapsed, you will be retested and allowed to return home if you test negative.
