The recent military operation in Venezuela disrupted vacations to popular destinations. Here are tips for buying travel insurance and protecting your trip
THOUSANDS OF TRAVELLERS found themselves stuck in the Caribbean this week after the US military operation in Venezuela on Saturday forced widespread flight cancellations. Many more with upcoming travel plans during peak Caribbean vacation season are no doubt watching the situation anxiously. Should they go?
