Spring Break Trip Greece/Italy

[Anonymous]

I'm getting worried about this with everything going on right now. My DD is supposed to travel in April--my DH and I are leaning toward cancelling. WWYD??

Have trip insurance & pack sunscreen?

I mean, FFS, 2 kids were just sitting in class in VA today & were shot. Like the US is 'safe'?

This! Your kid is safer outside of this country except for in Gaza, Iran, Lebanon and Israel

We are headed to Italy for spring break and have no major concerns.

I assume this is because they are college kids traveling themselves? I wouldn’t worry if it was a family trip. I always worry about college kid trips! I’m not sure how sophisticated they are but there have been lots of travel disruptions and if there are gas shortages that might be an issue. (I was once stuck in a country for a eeek because there was an inflationary spike and they couldn’t buy jet fuel for the plane. We eventually ended up taking a bus to a bigger city that had better supplies.).

I still don’t think I’d worry a lot, beyond the general worry that Greece is famous among college students for drinking and casual sex. An std is probably a bigger risk than a terrorist attack.

How are they hitting up both in one week?
