Typhoon Mawa hit Guam the other day. Hotels, restaurants and activities are open as usual in Marianas without major damage.
If you are planning to travel to Saipan next month, please do not worry!

However, it is very important to be prepared for emergencies, as the old saying goes, "If you are prepared, you will not have to worry."
During this typhoon, flights were disrupted, and many people were stranded at the site because their return flights were canceled. In such a case, we recommend that you add compensation for flight delay costs to your overseas travel insurance as an option. Before departure, if the time of travel is likely to be hit by a typhoon, it is a good idea to enter just in case. Especially from now until September, it will be the typhoon season, so it is not to be underestimated.
Please take a moment to think about how to reduce unexpected expenses.
