I doubt the airline ban will affect much of anything other than the airlines' pocketbooks. Most people traveling from the US to Africa will choose S. African airlines or one of the Gulf carriers like Qatar Airlines or Emirates. Connections in the gulf are excellent, weather is always reliable, and these airlines are simply worlds ahead of all US carriers on pricing, comfort, food, number of destinations, etc. The only issue might be a small domestic connection on the return flight, but the trophies could be offloaded and delivered from the entry airport. Moreover, anyone with the resources and know how to put together an African safari will have no difficulty dealing with a piddling little trifle such as this.

That is what Dallas Safari Club probably wanted to say.
