The Innovative Democratic Alliance (IDA) has issued a strong call for immediate action to protect Tobago’s tourism industry following the U.S. State Department’s Level 3 travel advisory issued on May 7, 2025.
The advisory warns travellers to “reconsider travel” to Trinidad and Tobago due to serious risks from crime, as well as heightened risks of terrorism and kidnapping.
The IDA expressed deep concern over the disproportionate impact such advisories have on Tobago’s economy, which heavily relies on tourism. They argue that Tobago is often unfairly affected by security issues primarily associated with Trinidad.
