Ask HN: Should I still travel to Jamaica?

0 点作者 chett将近 15 年前
I'm scheduled to depart for a resort in Montego Bay in under a week. In light of recent events: (http://kingston.usembassy.gov/warden_information.html, http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/news/Security-forces-move-on-Tivoli-Gardens) I'm reconsidering the trip.<p>My risk averse side tells me to cancel/reschedule, but more rationally the odds are low that something might happen.<p>Apologies for sounding callous, I realize there are bigger problems than where I spend my vacation.

If you are going to be nervous your entire vacation, then I wouldn't go there.<p>Go some place you can relax and enjoy.

I'm inclined to say no, unless you are the geographical opposite end of the island. If you're near Kingston, predictions are hard to make. The risk is low but so is the confidence interval.<p>Examine your travel contract, which may well have a no-cost cancellation/rescheduling exception for such circumstances - look for a clause about 'force majeure'.

The travel warning from the U.S. is for Kingston, if you will be traveling through (or flying into that city) then the warning would apply to you. Personally, aside from the risk, just the possibility of big disruptions in moving around would prompt me to cancel. If it's a hassle, it's not a vacation.
