Travel and the coronavirus crisis: What can be done?

The coronavirus pandemic has triggered changes across the world that we couldn't have imagined even a week ago.

More countries around the world have introduced travel bans in recent weeks and closed their borders, while tens of thousands of flights have already been cancelled.

With so much change happening in a short space of time, we're seeing holidaymakers being left to fend for themselves as they join the scramble to get home, paying hundreds more just for a ticket on a last-minute flight.

And those with travels booked for Easter, the summer and beyond are now unsure what to do next.

To that end, The Independent's travel correspondent Simon Calder has answered some of your Covid-19 concerns.
