Should I still travel to Mexico? Security expert weighs in on updated terrorism risks
"You still want to avoid those areas that are hotly contested by the cartels or are under outright total control of the cartels. There are certain states within Mexico that are really hot zones for this, but those typically are not your prime vacation spots."
In a USA Today article, Global Guardian Director of Intelligence Mike Ballard explains the recent changes to Mexico’s travel risk advisory and offers travelers practical guidance on how to prepare, from selecting safe destinations to taking precautions before and during their trip.
