SPECIAL FOCUS: TO GO OR NOT TO GO
Examining the choice of travel in a new world.
Today's travel considerations are very different than they were before g/l1. Now, many travelers are more concerned than ever about anti-Western sentiment ranging from a dirty look to a bullet in the back. Among other potential dangers in today's global itinerary are war violence, terrorist risk and faltering airport security systems. Intrepid travelers are still heading out, but even the most adventurous may be shifting their itineraries. In this special focus, we've tapped the brains of experts including Lonely Planet's
travel editor Don George and blue Contributing Editor and ultimate globetrotter Bruce Northam to analyze the travel landscape. We know from CNN polls that the average
American has dramatically reduced their travel habit. But if you're reading blue, no one can call you average. A recent poll of blue readers indicates more than go percent will continue to travel by air, as planned pre-g/11. Travel on!
