And, when the Festival dies resume - return visitors will find that the rules for domestic air travel have changed.

Following the hijacking that occurred in April, some travelers are complaining that the new regulations and security screenings are a bit of an inconvenience to tourists. But the minister of tourism says he welcomes it:
