World wide Travel Advisory -US Citizens
Just heard on CNN that US has issued a worldwide travel advisory.
How does this affect you ? Will leisure travel diminish ? Award seats easily available ?

Some places to visit will be less busy. Leisure travel patterns will change but people still have vacations they want to take.

Interesting time. Smack middle of the start of busiest travel season. Is the State Dept simply trying to 'lift the responsibility off their shoulders'?
Edit: can this be used by people as an 'out' to cancel nonrefundable travel plans?

I'm overseas now and there's nothing I can do about it.

Not to mention, if it's a worldwide advisory, people probably shouldn't travel around the US too, no (otherwise, it's a ploy in fostering domestic tourism this holiday season. Yep, I'm 100% skeptical of everything the DoS promulgates).
