Tourists staying in affected areas may experience temporary loss of power to accommodation, restaurants, and shops. If you are unsure whether your area is affected, ask your hotel or host for the specific outage schedule and hours. It is advisable to charge devices in advance, carry cash in case card terminals go offline, and plan any essential activities requiring power around the outage windows.
