Any insights on my problem? Please excuse me if this is the wrong subreddit to be posting in I purchased a 遠傳FET simcard from the airport upon landing in Taipei, Taiwan last October 27. I got the unli data sim and put it into my spare Android phone (POCO F3). I used it for hotspot and it worked flawlessly until this morning. This morning, data was on, hotspot is on, but…

Denied boarding – what now? I’m writing this at 3am after spending the last 7 hours trying to get on my flight. This happened on an easyjet flight, Porto-Bristol, flight EZY2876, scheduled the 28/10/23. The flight was originally scheduled for 9pm. Due to unforseen circumstances, the flight got delayed 1h (as all flights of that day from that airport got pushed back 1h due …

Finally done with Airbnb after a decade of amazing experiences

( www.reddit.com )

Finally done with Airbnb after a decade of amazing experiences I booked an Airbnb for my girlfriend and I for a month, four days in advance. I accidentally put in 1 guest instead of 2 as 99% of the time there is no difference in charge. As I go to add a guest after I booked, I find that an additional guest is $2000 more a month. Mind you, this is to literally share a double bed. The initial price was $3000,…

In the Caribbean, is it true that the water is calmer on the south sides of the islands that face the gulf?

( www.reddit.com )

In the Caribbean, is it true that the water is calmer on the south sides of the islands that face the gulf? I’m looking for the calmest waters in the Caribbean, and friends are telling me the sides of the islands that face the gulf have calm water because the it’s not the full tide of the Atlantic Ocean slamming up against the island. Instead the water is a little still because it’s only bouncing off of Latin America and back. When I was young I woul…

Places that had a depressing vibe?

Places that had a depressing vibe? I honestly don’t know how to explain the feeling but it’s just a vibe that something’s off and sometimes you see it in people’s faces. Sadness, hopelessness… Example of personal experiences: 1. Czech Republic/ Poland border (for obvious reasons related to WWII) 2. Armenia (for historical and present situation too). submitted by /u/Ok-Jo…

What’s your preferred travel routine?

What’s your preferred travel routine? I have an upcoming solo trip to a touristy destination with a nice spa, pool, shopping, etc. Normally, I prefer to land around hotel check-in time so I can drop my bags and settle in, freshen up (I like to take a shower after I fly), then go about my afternoon. I have had to wait hours for my bags from the bell desk when checking in after noon, …

What’s the dumbest thing you did while traveling where things went fine anyway? Mine is probably flying to Athens at midnight with no hotel and not knowing how the buses worked (in the pre cellphone and Internet days). Thanks to a kind airport worker, bus attendant and random tourist along the way we found a hotel we could afford and also didn’t accidentally pay over $100 to the city bus (who laughed as he pushed the money …

Tip: You can cancel non-refundable flights for a full refund if the schedule changes significantly In August, I booked a cruise and non-refundable flight to Turkey, Greece, Egypt, and Israel for summer 2024. Then the horror in Israel happened a few weeks ago. I thought I was stuck on this cruise because of the non-refundable flight. Sure, I would have been safe because cruise lines are canceling Israel (and Egypt) ports. But I didn’t want to …
