Returning to the USA: Share Your Experiences

As the world continues to navigate life post-pandemic, the landscape of travel has seen its fair share of twists and turns. Recently, I have been contemplating a short trip back home for two weeks. However, I’ve noticed the surge in rumors and discussions around the current travel policies and situations regarding returning to the USA. 🛫

To create a sense of community and provide valuable insights, I thought it might be helpful to compile a post where fellow travelers can share their recent experiences when returning to the USA. If you are comfortable, please drop your details in the comments section below:

• Return Date:
• Airport/Port of Entry:
• Professional Background (STEM or Non-STEM):

Update – May 4th

I successfully made it through customs today! The lines were quite long, but when it was finally my turn, the customs officer asked me just a couple of questions: how long my program was and where I was coming from. After I provided the answers, they waved me through with a smile. 😊

I wish everyone the best in their travels! Here’s to safe journeys as we navigate the complexities of returning to the USA. 🌍✈️
