A Woman Completing Her Journey for Umrah Without a Mahram

Question
A man wants to go to perform Umrah with his wife and children, but recently children are not allowed to enter. Therefore, he will perform Umrah first alone, then return to stay with the children, and then his wife will go alone to perform Umrah. Is this permissible?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is forbidden for a woman to travel without a mahram for Umrah or otherwise, and God knows best.
