Save My Honeymoon from the Mexican Swine Flu Outbreak
In fact, there have been reports of honeymooners contracting the illness in popular Mexican honeymoon resort areas such as Cancun.
Here is a story of a British couple who got sick and here is another story about a Scottish couple who came down with the illness.
If you are booked for a cruise visiting Mexico, chances are that your cruise is being re-routed to avoid Mexico. Before canceling your booking, check with your cruise line to find out what precautions they are taking to avoid contact with the new flu outbreak.
If you are booked with a resort in Mexico, talk to your travel agent to find out what solutions he or she is providing. Perhaps your honeymoon trip is covered by insurance so that you can get your money back and either book for another destination or another time. The resorts themselves should also be willing to refund your money or at least let you book for a different time (after the flu outbreak has become controlled).
If you want to make new arrangements, consider the Caribbean or Hawaii as good alternative destinations at a similar cost. We recommend that you ask your travel agent about these alternate destinations. Your travel agent should be sympathetic to your situation and be able to find you a great deal.
