On 6 April 2009, an earthquake measuring 6.3 magnitude, occurred near L'Aquila. Many people were injured or killed and thousands have been made homeless. Access to some areas in L’Aquila is still restricted. If you are travelling to the Abruzzo region, you should contact your tour operator to check whether services at your planned destination have been affected.

The Australian government and Smart Traveller recommend that if you are travelling overseas that you ensure that you are properly covered with comprehensive travel insurance. The cost of medical, dental and let alone the inconvenience of the loss of luggage can ruin your holiday.
