How is Mallorca really? Scheduled to go in September however I keep seeing news about protests and a general contempt towards tourists. For any of you who have been recently, would you recommend changing our plans? We are going for a few days and staying at a hotel in Deia. submitted by /u/CarelessAbalone6564

Weird story about Rio de Janeiro. About 6 years ago when I was 19, I flew into Rio, excited but clueless about what awaited me. But man, did I get a wild welcome. it’s midnight when I arrived, and I find out my bags are stuck in Panama. So there I am, alone in this dead quiet baggage claim, trying to fill out a lost luggage form with google translate. It took forever. Then, ju…

Weird Occurrence in Muscat Aerotel I and my family were flying abroad and we had lay-over in Oman International Airport for a couple of hours. When we arrived, we booked two suites, one for I and my cousin (both 20F) and one for my uncle and aunt (60M and 49F). As soon as we walked into the hotel lounge, it was eerily quiet but the staff were professional and welcoming, so nothin…

Edelweiss Air – YYC to ZUR I’m flying to Zurich from Calgary and my beloved Edmonton oilers are in the Stanley cup finals. I’ll be in the air for game 5. Do they have wifi? I know they have a wifi in flight entertainment system but I can’t figure out if they have actual wifi. Their website is less than helpful. submitted by /u/DELILAHBELLE2605

Is it worth doing a long layover in Frankfurt? I’m flying to Asia from the US and have the option of either a 1 hour or 11 hour layover in Frankfurt. I was wondering if it would be worth taking the longer one to explore the city (or some of the nearby towns like Mainz). submitted by /u/Chemical-Height8888

5 days – Interlaken or Cinque Terre? Please don’t flame for the overly broad question. We’ve really not been to any European country other than the UK (yes, yes, I know). Have 10-11 days at the beginning of July and are planning 5 in Paris. Looking for one other place to go and are deciding between Interlaken and Cinque Terre/Florence. Would love opinions. We’re very chill vacatio…

How do I find a travel group online? Hi, I am 24f and I wanted to visit some countries, but I don’t feel safe enough to travel solo. I’d like to find a group of people around my age (20-30), in my country, to plan some trips together. How would one do that? I mainly want to avoid: 1. Agencies that ask for thousands for a planned/all inclusive trip 2. Anonymous groups or reddit sub…

2 Weeks from Tokyo – need suggestions Hi, so some friends and I are heading to Japan in July – August. The original trip is already pretty much sealed: ~1 week Tokyo/ Fuji, ~1 week Kyoto, 3-4 days Osaka, 4-5 days Tottori (one of the friends is Japanese and has family friends there). Then back to Tokyo. This is where my question really begins. My friends are leaving after the 3 weeks…

Zanzibar trip Hi my hubby and I are both 60 next year so decided to treat ourselves to a special holiday. We are looking at Zanzibar but also want to include a Serengeti safari. Not sure on our best route from uk – do we fly direct to Nairobi – do safari and then fly to Zanzibar. Or is it better to fly to/from Zanzibar with an additional flight just to do the…

Staying fit while backpacking through Europe This summer, I will be backpacking through Europe, staying for 2-4 days in one place in a hostel. The whole trip will take 1.5 months, so I’m wondering what’s the best way to stay fit and at least preserve muscles (I don’t have to build them, but I don’t want to lose them or gain fat) during this period. I will visit many cities and countries fr…

8 hour layover in Tokyo between HND and NRT- made a mini trip of it! I had 8 hours to get between Haneda and Narita airports in Tokyo for my connecting flight. Instead of just taking the limousine bus between the two and spending half a day in the airport, decided to explore Tokyo for a few hours instead and transfer by going through downtown. Left my things in a locker at Shinjuku station, had a $4 traditional J…

Does China Southern Airlines allow mobile phones? I have some flights (AUS-LND) return coming up, i remember years ago when flying CSA they didn’t allow me to use my phone during the flight at all. Is this something they still in force? I just remembered after pre downloading a bunch of entertainment on my phone lol. Also, pretty niche but has anyone received meals for their dietary restriction…

Architecture in Barcelona was gorgeous. I love the Gothic quarter especially at night. Although my friend got his iPhone pickpocketed almost immediately after landing in Barcelona. Be wary of thieves while you are there. submitted by /u/Opposite_Possible_21
