June 10 - Guatemala suffered two natural disasters recently both relatively close together.
Firstly the eruption of the Pacaya Volcano which spouted out rocks and ash and closed the main airport in Guatemala City. There was thankfully only one fatality but more than 2,000 locals were evacuated as homes were destroyed.
Pacaya is the most active of Guatemala's 32 volcanoes and has been intermittently erupting since 1966. Tourists often visit the lava flows it has produced since its explosions of 1989 and 1991
Next came Tropical Storm Agatha, the first storm of the 2010 Pacific hurricane season, which was much more destructive, killing 172 and leaving more than 7000 homeless. It made landfall on the Guatemalan Mexican border and most of the deaths were a result of landslides and flash floods caused by the extremely heavy rains.
If you operate programmes to areas where natural disasters such as Volcanoes and Cyclones/Hurricanes can occur, then you need to be prepared should any of your customers be affected.
tranquilico.com specialises in helping small to medium sized tour operators get their plans and procedures in order, plus training and desktop simulations to help you be prepared.
