Well, he is crazy!!You are also headed to FL not CA - North Korea doesn't have the resources to reach that coast.
Reality is this is a non starter - the media blowing this ego match up for ratings. Korea would be absolutely crazy to take on the US on US soil.
He who?Well, he is crazy!!
Both of them reallyHe who?
Ugh. Hate when that happens. Last month our flight to Florida was cancelled at the gate due to mechanical prob. So missed my connection and had to rebook entire thing. Took them 1.5 hrs to find us other flights, and finally arrived at 6am, the following day. I could have circumnavigated the world in that time! Was exhausted and when we got to hotel just crashed.I’m currently in San Francisco and all is fine... except for my flight which was delayed 2 hrs. Got in at 11pm PT Thursday and we were wiped out.
I do believe so. Some of us have trouble with not worrying over things we have no control of -- spend more time ruminating over what others are able to move past. I think the initial question has been answered : will travel insurance cover if you cancel based on the possibility of war -- found out it doesn't.Is the OP serious?
I don't think you're nuts to be considering this possibility given everything that was said at the United Nations General Assembly meetings this past week.
We have made a family decision to completely avoid any US travel for the foreseeable future. War is one of the reasons, civil unrest is another, a personal choice not to spend money in the US is also part of it.
That's as far as I'll go as I can't get into politics here
I was away with DD last week and really didn't have access to news. What all was said at the meetings?
During his address to the UN Trump referred to Kim Jong Un as "Rocket Man" and vowed to "totally destroy North Korea" That led to Kim Jong Un calling Trump mentally deranged and that he would "pay dearly" for the threats, and that North Korea "will consider with seriousness exercising of a corresponding, highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history." Which then turned into a rather large "peeing contest" NK says we'll use hydrogen bombs and Trump tweets "Kim Jong Un of North Korea, who is obviously a madman who doesn't mind killing or starving his people, will be tested like never before!"
SO yes, some of us are slightly concerned about whatnis being said and how far it will escalate.
Sadly yes.Is the OP serious?
I hope you don't feel bad for worrying -- if you're like me, being questioned about the legitimacy of your anxiety just serves to make you anxious of being anxious! As I've stated here and other places, I am having trouble keeping the concern about what's happening under control. Try to focus on your planning and realize that you will have a GREAT time once you actually get to Disney.Things happening down south worry me more every day.
I totally agree. If I had I said I was worried about possibly being in an airport shooting before our trip in January on here I'm sure lots of people would have rolled their eyes at me too. Guess what.. I was.. and the only positive to come from that is that when people run their mouth about how other people should feel and roll their eyes at someone's safety concerns , I dismiss them right away.I hope you don't feel bad for worrying -- if you're like me, being questioned about the legitimacy of your anxiety just serves to make you anxious of being anxious!

So you were not worried when Slick Willy did pretty much the same thing in the 90's?Well, with two of the craziest people in the world engaging in a peeing contest... yeah, I can understand that.

Do I think everyone should be quaking in fear? No. But I will NEVER make someone feel small or stupid for taking their safety seriously. TBH.. I am not comfortable in the United States right now. We went back twice after the Fort Lauderdale incident and we spent an awful lot of time looking over our shoulder. We are walking through metal detectors to get into theme parks.Announcements telling you if you "See something, Say something" are running in movie theatres. Other people can normalize that. I can't.
