Just had lucky escape. Went to Warsaw on Thursday with couple of mates for long weekend. At the time no travel restrictions and gov travel advice was all chill. Poland was saying may close schools / museums on the Monday (after we planned to leave) so wasn't overly concerned.
1 day there, most places closed, bars restaurants mainly shut or empty, then polish gov announce they were going to close incoming borders, we decide to play cautious and book first flight outta there back to UK (via Brussels) just in case things progress faster and we got stuck there.
Following day, as we were mid travel home , we find out LOT (polish airline) cancelled all flights for two weeks and the flight we were originally due to catch back (BA) also got cancelled with no alternatives!!
There was couple of stag party's we saw staggering about pissed out thier faces the night we found out and booked flights... I do wonder if they going to struggle to get back home now (and their weddings were not the following week!)
