Brits can "come on down"!!

I just read this in the Dominican Review this morning. This is a great sign and hopefully things continue to improve in Haiti.

"Port-au-Prince.– The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has revised its travel advice for Haiti and no longer advises against all but essential travel to the Caribbean island.

Haiti has experienced a slump in visitors in recent years due to a combination of particularly violent weather conditions and political unrest. But the change in FCO advice means British travelers can now visit Haiti without having to buy special travel insurance.

However, despite the overall security situation improving, the FCO advice states that travellers should still ‘exercise a high degree of caution’ while travelling in the country."
