Should we plan more days in Anaheim or San Diego? We have 9 days available for our family vacation. After Disneyland, we’ll probably skip Universal, because our 6 year old doesnt know the movies (I mean, she thinks Lion King is scary… she’s definitely not prepared for Jurrasic). We’ll probably go to Huntington botanical garden. Is there anything else in Anaheim? Then we’re going to go down to…

How to spot, and avoid, timeshare properties while shopping for a resort We are shopping for a vacation destination in the Caribbean… likely in Jamaica but that isn’t relevant to the question. We have traveled quite a bit over the past 35 years, but now it seems like timeshare resorts have started to spring up like crazy. Secrets, Divi, Hilton, Marriott… are just a few I have seen. I have less than zero interest in t…

As a US citizen, do you have to go through customs / immigration when flying from one EU country to another? Obviously you have to go through immigration when arriving at an EU country, so my question is more directed to what is flying like between EU nations, once already in the EU. We are interested in flying from Amsterdam to Prague and I’ve only ever traveled by train throughout Europe. Thanks in advance. submitted by /u/Quizchris …

Any hacks to get reimbursement on Delta and Air France flights? Hi all, My husband and I have had an international trip booked for a number of months. We recently found out we are expecting, and unfortunately I am too sick to travel that far. I am looking for any hacks/tips to get reimbursement for our flights. I believe we can get flight credit, but it’s doubtful we will be able to fly overseas anytime soon…

Protests in Guatemala affecting travel? Is anyone aware of the situation on the ground in Guatemala? Apparently protests have been going on for a week… I’m supposed to travel there on Thursday, and my Guatemalan friend just messaged me saying it might not be possible. He also sent me a picture of tourists sleeping on floor of airport without any provisions, and he said he is unable …

F25, Love hostelling, but have a couple of VERY bad experiences I have done lots of solo travelling and always stayed at hostels, I like the sense of community and of course, the price. However, I had a really bad experience a few years ago and almost the same thing happened last night. On both these occasions, I was sleeping in a mixed dorm and a man tried to get into my bed in the night while I was asleep…

Debate between going to Portugal or Switzerland for early April I would like to seek opinions. I’ve done research and am really enjoying the potential of going to either! This will be for 4 days and I am going with my family of all grown adults. No budget in mind but not many restrictions I imagine< -My interests include food, wine, hiking (once maybe twice), exploring and walking! Good weather is a plus b...

The unrest in Guatemala. What should I do from here? Of course, I have that cautionary tale of purchasing a non refundable ticket to Guatemala and with the protests and blockades happening all around the country, I’m not really in a position to be traveling and visiting around. Is buying a plane ticket to another country in Central American (Nicaragua, Costa Rica, etc) from Guatemala city the sam…

Egypt Visa for Canadians? I understand that Canadian nationals can no longer get an e-visa or visa on arrival to visit Egypt as of October 1st. As it seems we have to go into the consulate in Ottawa or Montreal, and as these consulates are seldom open and don’t really reply to calls or emails, it seems like Canadians across the country borderline cannot obtain tourist v…

Have you experienced anyone casually trying to invite themselves on your trip? This happened to me twice recently. I’m in the early stages of planning a riding holiday in Ireland. And I shared my intention and tentative dates with a couple friends. Two separate conversations, two separate friends. Both friends then casually tried to invite themselves on the trip after I told them it was a trip I was fully intending on doin…

Reviews on itinerary – Italy (21-ish days) Hi travelers! Me again, this time with an itinerary in… Italy! First of all, thanks again to those who took the time to read my previous post and answered my (many) questions. I’m still looking into the suggestions you made in other places (towns & countries), but I found something while digging in r/travel and thought it was a very interestin…

Over night layover at Warsaw Airport Hi I have a 14 hour 25 minute overnight layover at Warsaw Airport (WAW) 21:45 – 12:10. Does anyone know if I’ll have to pick up my checked luggage then re-check it for the next leg of the journey? Flights are with LOT Polish Airlines submitted by /u/doug147

Best area to stay in Zurich, Switzerland? Hi! For those of you who have been in Zurich, Switzerland before I am looking to book a hotel for my first stay in Zurich this weekend and I am hesitanting between hotels near Opernhaus Zürich or the ones near Zurich HB train (so more central)? What are your recommendations? I feel like both of these places are good but I fear that being near Op…

Repeat destinations Hey! When people talk about travel they often describe the wish to say as much of the world as they can. They find it a waste to spend money on repeat destinations. Don’t get me wrong: I love seeing a variety of places, but we also love repeat visits to our favorite destinations. We have a habit of going to London at least once a year. Some peo…

How to enjoy your trip after a bad experience? I’ve read several posts in this sub about bad experiences. From creepy individuals, scams, stolen items, lost flights, breakups, loneliness and much more. How do you enjoy your travel adventure after a bad/negative experience? How do you bounce back? Slight context: I’m flying out in 3 days for a longgg adventure across Asia (maybe >1 year). My …

Any place in the US you can get from airport to beach without needing to Uber/rent a car? Want to do a last minute beach getaway with a toddler, not having to bring the car seat would help a ton. submitted by /u/default5551

TSA PreCheck vs Clear My brother and I recently made a competition out of who can get through security faster and with what ticket add-on, TSA PreCheck or Clear. Besides the stupidity of my brother and I making it a weird competition, it brought up the question which is truthfully worth it or are both worth it? For the record, I got through faster with the TSA PreChe…

What’s a place that you are happy to get out of and then start missing it a short while later? Places like Thailand, Vietnam etc I love going to and almost instantly want to go back and plan a trip for, but I don’t ever want to leave the place to begin with. For me Istanbul is a place that I can only endure for a few days and then am very happy to leave. After a few weeks or sometimes days I start missing the place and start getting the …

Nintendo Switch vs Airport Tax I want to start off by stating that I have tried Googling but I can’t find an answer that helps me to understand. I am planning to go to Japan early 2024 and want to buy a Switch OLED from the Nintendo Store. I would prefer to keep it boxed until I get back home to the UK. It’s clear that putting it in the checked luggage isn’t a good idea. I wa…
