Africa-Press – Botswana. Ukraine, Iran, Israel and almost all of North Africa: All of these travel destinations pose a “very high risk” in the new year 2024. The German company A3M, based in Hamburg and Tübingen, has also created a so-called risk map for the new year , which analyzes the risk potential in all countries around the world. Anyone planning their trips for the new year should definitely check whether their destination is at high risk.
Vacation 2024: These are the safest travel destinations for tourists
In order to be able to compare the countries, the company used entry and exit, transport in the country (air transport, public transport, taxis, cars and other means of transport) as criteria. In addition, infrastructure, health, risk of infection, natural hazards and environment, safety were highlighted, among other things.
Countries marked in dark red, such as those mentioned above, should therefore only be visited with extreme caution. Due to the war in Ukraine and the war in Israel, it is understandable that experts advise against traveling to these countries. But the highest warning level also applies in large regions outside of the war zones. These include the African countries Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Chad, Sudan, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Central African Republic, South Sudan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia and Somalia.
Holiday 2024: Dark red warning level also for Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and Haiti
A3M also warns of some countries with the highest intensity in the Middle to Far East. In addition to Israel, these include Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. We also strongly advise against traveling to Myanmar. In addition, in Latin America, crisis-ridden Venezuela lights up dark red, as do parts of Colombia and Haiti. The rule for all of these countries is that they can only be traveled to with significant restrictions or not at all. “Comprehensive precautions” must be taken before the trip, such as a security concept.Traveling to countries marked in orange is also “associated with high risks”. Examples of such countries include the aggressor countries Russia and Belarus, North Korea, Papua New Guinea, many African and Central American countries as well as parts of Indonesia and Mexico. In some of these countries the situation is also extremely tense and special security measures are necessary.
Holiday risks 2024: “Yellow level” for China, India and Thailand
The first level of countries that can be traveled to without extensive preparation is the yellow level. However, there is also an “increased risk” here because violent crime, health risks or prolonged violent protests can also occur here.
