Alaska hotel bars SARS travel for Vancouver guests
An Anchorage hotel refused a guest with travel from Singapore and Hong Kong as part of a SARS screening policy by 12 Westmark hotels in Alaska and Canada. The Holland America line extended the policy to its hotels to protect travelers and crews amid the outbreak that has killed hundreds and sickened thousands worldwide. Officials say the measure aims for community safety despite pushback from travelers and industry groups.
