She is wanting to go on a lay over this month and my only layover is down there. My only worry is the one flight out and having to leave her behind. Ideas? Thanks

- ALPA: "Security Issues
Venezuela is considered one of the most dangerous countries in the world. Incidents of murder, kidnapping, carjacking and other violent crimes have increased dramatically across Venezuela in recent years due to the country's skyrocketing inflation rate, high unemployment, widespread poverty and corrupt police and judicial system.
Kidnappings are the fastest growing crime in Venezuela and have increased by 300 percent since 2009. A high percentage of kidnappings involve police officers and soldiers, and kidnappers are now demanding U.S. dollars and euros in payment, as both currencies are in high demand in the country."

Trust me. Don't even think about it. Been to every major city in VEnezuela. Avoid that place.

She was wanting to go but has since changed her mind after more research. I don't even like going down there. Thanks for the replies

BOG is a much nicer place down there.

Take her to Punta Cana, or even PVR(AUA is nice too). Just watch out for 'Zeka'. She may get stuck, she may not, have a few backup plans.

Whisper some words in the gate agent's ear as you check in.
