Why a Travel Warning Doesn't Always Mean 'Cancel Your Trip' - Carlomaria Grassi

…. OK  but Why a Travel Warning Doesn't Always Mean 'Cancel
Your Trip'

After Tuesday's terror attacks on an
airport and metro station in Brussels, the State Department has issued an
unusually broad warning for travel across Europe. In the wake of twin terror
attacks in Brussels, the State Department’s sweeping alert for travel to all of
Europe is
stoking visitors’ fears further - by raising the prospect of similar attacks in
the near future. “Terrorist groups continue to plan near-term attacks
throughout Europe, targeting sporting events, tourist sites, restaurants, and
transportation,” the department said in its latest alert, issued shortly after
the bombings at Brussels airport and a city metro station.

For the U.S. government to issue such a broad - and
alarming - alert is unusual, but it’s not the only country warning its citizens
to reconsider travel plans. Several countries issued new advisories, such as
Australia, which raised its alert for Belgium from "a high degree of
caution" to "reconsider your need to travel." Belgium itself is
now at a Level 4 terror alert, the highest possible level, and its airport will
remained closed for a second day.
