Ongoing terror threats and ISIS ongoing war against travel and tourism with recent attacks in Lebanon, Tunisia, France and Belgium is making this world a less safe place for tourism.

The U.S. alert reads:
“Current information suggests that ISIL (aka Da’esh), al Qa’ida, Boko Haram, and other terrorist groups continue to plan terrorist attacks in multiple regions. These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics, using conventional and non-conventional weapons and targeting both official and private interests. The Travel Alert expires on February 24, 2016.”
