E.O. 12958: N/A 
TAGS: CASC ASEC XB
SUBJECT: Travel Alert - South Pacific Cyclone Season 
 
1.  American citizens residing in or traveling to the 
South Pacific region are alerted that the South Pacific 
cyclone season runs from November 1, 2008, through April 
30, 2009.  Countries in the South Pacific region covered 
by this alert include Australia, Fiji, Kiribati, the 
Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, New Zealand, Palau, 
Papua, New Guinea, Samoa, the Solomon Islands, Tonga, 
Tuvalu, and Vanuatu, as well as the territories of French 
Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna islands. 
American citizens in this region during the cyclone 
season should monitor local weather reports and take 
other appropriate action as further discussed below. 
This travel alert expires on April 30, 2009. 
 
2.  Each season, the South Pacific region experiences 
approximately nine tropical cyclones, about half of which 
reach Category 3 intensity or above and have the 
potential to cause severe destruction. 
 
3.  American citizens have often encountered 
uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous conditions after 
storms have passed while they awaited transportation back 
to the United States.  Many U.S. citizens traveling 
abroad in affected regions have been forced to delay 
their returns to the United States because of 
infrastructure damage to airports and limited flight 
availability.  Damage to roads can limit access to 
airports and land routes out of affected areas. Flights 
can be suspended and passengers may face long delays 
before normal airport operations and flight schedules 
resume. U.S. embassies and consulates may be required to 
limit hours or temporarily suspend non-emergency 
services.  Looting and sporadic violence have occurred 
after natural disasters.  Security personnel may not be 
readily available to assist at all times. 
 
4.  Should a situation require an evacuation from an 
overseas location, the State Department will work with 
commercial airlines to ensure that U.S. citizens are 
repatriated as safely and efficiently as possible. 
Commercial airlines are the Department's primary source 
of transportation in an evacuation and evacuees are 
responsible for the cost of these flights.  Other means 
of transport are used only as a last resort. 
 
5.  The Department of State does not provide no-cost 
transportation, but it has the authority to provide 
repatriation loans to those in financial need.  U.S. 
citizens should always obtain travel insurance to cover 
unexpected expenses during an emergency. 
 
6.  U.S. citizens living in or traveling to storm-prone 
regions should prepare an emergency kit containing a 
supply of bottled water, non-perishable food items, a 
battery-powered or hand-crank radio, and vital documents 
(especially passport and identification) in a waterproof 
container.  Emergency shelters often have access only to 
basic resources and limited medical and food supplies. 
 
7.  U.S. citizens should monitor local media to stay 
aware of any weather developments.  For further 
information on cyclone warnings in the South Pacific 
region, please consult the Joint Typhoon Warning Center 
(US military site) in Honolulu at 
http://metocph.nmci.navy.mil/jtwc.php, as well as Fiji's 
regional meteorological center responsible for cyclone 
warnings in the South Pacific region at 
http://www.met.gov.fj .  Minor tropical 
storms can develop into cyclones very quickly, limiting 
the time available for a safe evacuation.  Travelers 
should apprise family and friends in the United States of 
 
STATE 00129761  002 OF 002 
 
 
their whereabouts, and keep in close contact with their 
tour operator, hotel staff, and local officials for 
evacuation instructions in the event of a weather 
emergency.  Travelers should protect their travel and 
identity documents against loss or damage, as the need to 
replace lost documentation could hamper or delay return 
to the United States. 
 
8.  U.S. citizens are strongly encouraged to register 
with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate through the 
Department of State's travel registration website at 
https://travelregistration.state.gov.  By registering, 
American citizens can receive the Embassy's most recent 
security and safety updates during their trip. 
Registration also ensures that U.S. citizens can be 
reached should an emergency arise either abroad or at 
home.  While consular officers will do their utmost to 
assist Americans in a crisis, travelers should always be 
aware that local authorities bear primary responsibility 
for the welfare of people living or traveling in their 
jurisdictions. 
 
9.  Additional information on cyclones and storm 
preparedness may be found on the Cyclone Season 2008-2009 
page of the Bureau of Consular Affairs' website at: 
http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cycl one_season/c 
yclone_season_4395.html.  Updated information on travel 
in cyclone-prone regions may be obtained from the 
Department of State by calling 1-888-407-4747 within the 
United States and Canada, or from other areas, 1-202-501- 
4444.  Travelers to the region are encouraged to check 
the internet site of the U.S. Embassy or Consulate with 
consular responsibilities for the territory they will be 
visiting (accessible at http://usembassy.state.gov).  For 
further information please consult the Country Specific 
Information web page for the country or territory in 
question, available at http://travel.state.gov. 
 
10.  Minimize considered.
