First off, know that travellers returning to Canada from other countries are required to quarantine for a mandatory 14-day period.
However, the good news is that according to IATA, the chances of contracting a disease from an ill person during a flight is likely to be lower than in other confined spaces. This is because modern aircraft refresh cabin air every few minutes and are equipped with high-efficiency particulate air (or HEPA) filters, which remove at least 99.9 percent of particles, including microscopic viruses and bacteria. According to Marc Garneau, Canada’s Transport Minister, there is no evidence to date of a passenger contracting COVID-19 onboard an aircraft.

It is also a developed country with an advanced economy, a high living standard, being also the 11th most peaceful country in the world.
The Bahamas
