Aside from the fact that it’s insanely expensive to travel that way right now, I was thinking of the potential conflict erupting with Venezuela.

I read a thread on Reddit on someone expressing the same concern. Most people dismissed it, but I think it’s real. Tourism in that region will definitely be hit.

From what we’ve seen already, the administration is totally disregarding all rules of law. If a few civilian airliners get destroyed so be it. Trump and Hogshit certainly don’t give a shit.
