DAILY HERALD LINKThe only positive is it might help the Dutch side but with the likely upcoming US travel b*ll$hit, none of this is good for the island overall.

I feel like the cruise lines are more concerned about people getting stuck and missing the boat at this point than true safety concerns. As far as I know, tourists haven't been harmed. I can deal with taking a different route from the airport to avoid a road closure, but if it continues to escalate where safety really is an issue, or if getting to the airport becomes impossible at times, we won't go.

Whether people are ACTUALLY in physical danger is uncertain, but seeing burning cars and blockades, etc., would certainly make me FEEL unsafe. The French side needs to get this crap under control before their economy is totally destroyed.
