There is a bit of unrest in Roatan this week...
Both Carnival and NCL have canceled stops this week. There were no warnings on the state department site that I could readily find.
Honduras: Residents of Roatan, the most popular of Honduras' Bay Islands, are in an uproar over a significant increase in the price of electricity provided by the island's utility company and have been demonstrating widely, blocking roads, including the roads to the airport, cruise ship port, downtown and other areas. Protesters set up road checkpoints and threatened at least one U.S. citizen with violence. The U.S. Embassy advises Americans not to try to pass through roadblocks because violent incidents have occurred in the past.
For updates and further advisories, call the State Department at (888) 407-4747 or visit Welcome to Travel.State.Gov.
