Nature can hit you left, right and center. The latest disaster is the Iceland volcano eruption. It was a shock to all the air travel passengers. After a holiday who ever planned to return home would have been puzzled by looking at the airport flickering boards showing one word "CANCELLED".
The Iceland volcanic eruption and the subsequent ashes got spread for over 1000KM in just 2 days. It will be a surprise to know that Iceland has around 130 volcanoes (sitting within glaciers).
In 1821, the same volcano erupted for 2 years. It was also believed that it has taken a fifth of life on the Island.
The Airline carriers are expected to have incurred a loss of $200 million on each day.
So if you go on a holiday in future, make sure that you have a Plan B for contingency.
