Portland, OR – January 31, 2011 – Ya’lla Tours USA had a security plan in place long before it was ever needed and has confirmed that all its passengers in Egypt are safe. “We were able to instantly transfer our telecommunications to land lines, we have support staff working from alternative offices as needed and have been in touch with key staff in Egypt to confirm that all our travelers are safe,” said Ronen Paldi, president of Ya’lla Tours USA. “Safety and experience are our greatest assets and we have taken measures to ensure the well being of our travelers.
Ya’lla has postponed any future departures until February 13 and will reassess the situation at that time. Ya’lla is in touch with its suppliers to determine how to handle potential credits or refunds and future announcements will cover that in more detail. April and May departures have had its final payment deadlines shortened from 60 days to 45 days to allow for additional assessment of the situation.
