Travel to the US - At your risk

Would you want to holiday in North Korea, Russia, China?
Why would you want to travel in gun toting US, also a totalitarian state now. 
As a result of Trump's immigrant purge, people are being detained, sometimes for weeks. The UK and Germany are being joined by other countries with travel advisories to the US. Fancy spending your holiday in a detention centre. Go for it!
Why would you want to travel to a country where 3,900 people die EVERY MONTH as a result of gun violence?


Go somewhere else.

Thinking of a cruise

There are a lot of cruise companies and you might think going on a cruise outside of the US will avoid helping the US. Its more complicated unfortunately. There are a number of major cruise companies globally and each may have a number of subsidiaries.
Here's the situation:

Carnival Corporation and Plc
Carnival Corporation is incorporated in Panama and dual listed in the US and UK. Carnival Corporation is headquartered in the US and Carnival Plc is headquartered in Southampton, UK.
Carnival Corp and Plc consists of the following brands: 
Carnival Cruise Line, Costa Cruises, Princess Cruises, AIDA Cruises, Holland America Line, P&O Cruises, P&O Cruises Australia, Cunard Line, Seabourne Cruise Line.
Its not possible to separate them out so perhaps best to avoid them and use one of the alternatives.


 

Ride hailing

Its easy to get a ride in some places using app based ride hailing services. Here's a list and the considerations. If you were to switch out of Uber or Via and use other services as demand rises the drivers from one would go to the other. Of course, the coverage dependent on the app and you need to check whats available in your area.


Uber, Via,  - US based


Alternatives:
Taxiapp UK - UK
