Need advice choosing stops in Europe At the end of summer, I’m backpacking Europe for 7 weeks and will spend the following days in the cities/countries listed below. I need help deciding whether or not one of these cities is worth going to, or should I remove them and add more days to other places? The cities in question are Amsterdam (2 days), Prague (2 days), or Vienna (not on it…

Spiti Valley, India. Road trip’d through Lahaul and Spiti district in Himachal pradesh in North India. We took off from Delhi in our car in April. We drove up until zing zing bar(4500m). Most of the higher passes were blocked due to avalanches. North of India had a lot of snowfall late march/early april this year. There are two lakes in these pictures buried under s…

Delayed Luggage with Lufthansa My husband and I flew from SLC to Athens, Greece. Our itinerary was SLC to Seattle to Frankfurt to Athens. We received a text notifying us that our checked bag from SLC has been delayed and didn’t make it on our flight. I immediately submitted the claim and gave them our hotel address for delivery. I checked back this morning (we flew in yesterd…

China travel. Where to get tickets to attractions online? Hey all! Trying to figure out China itinerary and finding it tough to find somehwere to buy attraction tickets and trains online. For attractions, I’m particularly interested in the Terracotta warriors in Xi’an, Forbidden City and Great Wall in China (not sure if you have to pay to get into the Great Wall).

Airline lost bag and won’t send it back unless we pay for shipping. Do we have any recourse? We flew French Bee from Orly to Newark and when we got to the baggage claim our bag was not there. We talked to a representative and filed a claim. Today we got an alert that our bag was found, but in order to get it back we would have to drive to the airport and get it (~4 hours round trip) or we would have to pay for them to FedEx it back to o…

Air transit won’t refund travel credit or let me book with it? Hey I just wanted to get some advice because I don’t know what to do anymore. I was scheduled for a trip for $1,200 in 2020 which obviously got canceled because of Covid. Air transit didn’t refund my money and just said they will keep it as a credit for a future trip but I have to use it in 2 years. I called and spoke with them around the 2 year…

eDreams offering a refund of 30% face value? Before I go into detail, YES, I have unfortunately learnt my lesson to never go through third party sites. Duly noted. It was my poor dad that booked this for me anyway. Anyway, I booked a flight from London to Melbourne through edreams, worth around £1000 GBP, and my flight is through Emirates. I need to cancel my flight, yet they are only off…

Has anyone else noticed if airfare is more expensive? I’ve been planning some trips recently and noticed that airfare seems to be a lot higher than I remember. Is anyone else experiencing this? I’m curious if this is a widespread trend or if it might just be specific to the destinations I’m looking at. I am trying to fly out ofJFK to anywhere international. Thanks in advance for your input! su…

Does having a Schengen Visa refusal puts your name on list of prohibited persons or any other list? Long story short, I live in an EU country that joined Schengen months ago. I applied to a Schengen Visa to visit Italy 5 years ago. However the visa was rejected on the basis that I did not provide sufficient information about my stay and the fact that they had doubts that I will come back. Now, Im traveling with my girlfriend in two weeks to It…

Best stroller/wagon friendly cities in Europe? I recently moved to Switzerland for a two year work assignment with my wife and three kids (twin 3 year olds and a 3 month old) and we are looking to take a holiday soon. My wife and I traveled throughout Europe extensively before kids and just looking back on our trips a lot of the places we went just do not seem feasible if you are pushing kid…

Thinking of an East Coast vacation in early October- is Boston a good fit for me or where else should I look? I’ve only ever been to NYC on the (North)East coast, not counting DC when I was little and I don’t remember it well. I love fall and fall foliage and cozy towns. I saw the thread earlier and looked at Newburyport and it looks amazing. But it’s just pretty expensive. I’m open to Hotels or Airbnbs but Hotels have been cheaper lately in my experien…

China Eastern Corrupted Boarding Pass Hi all, I have a flight with China Eastern tomorrow. I tried to check in online but after I chose my seat, the website crashed. It then said “this person has already checked in” and when I try to click the boarding pass, it’s a blank document. This has me a bit worried. I will get to the airport in plenty of time, but are airlines usually OK to …
