I almost booked an ex-KRT AONE* for this month and am really glad I just booked an ex-CMB A fare instead. It's really hard to know how things will change though. For example, last summer I had planned on going to Syria and had decided against visiting Egypt due to the political situation. However, when I actually got to the Middle East I ended up going to Egypt which was then safe for Americans and had to cancel my plans in Syria.

Nonetheless, I would not book any travel to the middle east right now just because everything is so uncertain. Of course, if you end up having to cancel it's only a 5% charge...
