A 5-star hotel in a ‘volatile’ region of the world may increase your odds, but still remain extremely small.

I respect your trying to predict what will happen down the path, this is the characteristic of a true pro traveler, keep up the good work. To be involved in a terrorist attack is tantamount to being hit by lighting. However living in Five Star Hotels in Terrorst countries is for sure being a volunteer.

I hope the world becomes a better place.

Hopefully the trend continues into 2009.

That’s better than I did. I thought terrorist attacks would be higher and 3rd World would see a decline in tourists.
