cancelling visit to Pisa, Italy because of coronavirus

[arrmusic]

Hi

I have booked flight tickets with ryanair using paypal to fly to Pisa, Italy from Belgium on 28th February with my family; last days i have been seeing coronavirus escalating in Italy rapidly; i am getting a bit concerned; so if i would wish to cancel the flight ticket, can i claim it from paypal because of this very scary developments of coronavirus cases in Italy?

Any inputs appreciated

Cheers

Good grief, flu kills more folks every year yet you don't cancel a holiday because a country has folks with the flu do you?

@kernowlass, i am not worried about 'getting' it as i trust my immunity well and as you have pointed out the fact that flu kills more people than coronavirus but you are missing the point; so i am not afraid of the coronavirus or italy having coronovirus but what i am concerned about, are the travel disruptions(lets say if they cancel the flights or close the border etc; i dont think so they do those things for flu 😉 or lets say i or get ordinary fever and they decide to quarantine just to be sure; do they do it for flu ? 🙂 ); I have not seen them closing border/schengen because of flu;

So i do get the fact there are more sever viruses but what is different is the approach/panic now and how it affects my travel plans as a tourist
