Singapore Airlines wants $24K for oxygen tanks My husband uses supplementary oxygen due to COPD. We are flying to Thailand for my son’s wedding in January (his wife to be is Thai). We paid $4999 per person for round trip business class tickets. We were told the airlines can/will supply tanks of oxygen, but there will be a fee to reserve seats where they can strap in the oxygen tanks. They to…

DO NOT BOOK A ROOM WITH IHG HOTEL TONIGHT Not sure where to post this, but this r/ felt like the best place. I work as front desk at an IHG hotel in Seattle, and currently we have no way to pull reservations from our cloud. We are able to see new reservations made, but cannot download them into our operating system, meaning we have no way to check them in or even remake the reservation…

Great cities to wander around in? I’m looking for a recommendation for our next vacation destination! A while back, we took a trip to San Miguel de Allende and loved it. We spent most of our time walking around, eating delicious food, people-watching, and drinking on various rooftops. I’m looking for another vacation with a similar vibe, where the main attraction is the city its…

Am I able to get back into the airport after picking up my checked bag? So I am flying to Atlanta soon and I am going to have to check a bag. However, I am going to wait for my friend who is also flying to Atlanta before leaving the airport. I get in at about 8:00am and she gets in at around 12:00pm. I was planning on just chilling in the airport to wait for her and getting some food there. But when you get your che…

Flying with two passports with different names?? Hi all, basically what the title says. I am a Hong Kong citizen and recently became a naturalized American citizen this year so now I have two passports. I changed both my first and last name when I naturalized so the names are entirely different on my two passports. I will be traveling back to mainland China(not Hong Kong) later this year – a l…

Choosing Travel Destinations My boyfriend and I are in a situation where we have recently decided to make international traveling somewhat of a priority. In doing this, we have the problem of trying to decide where to travel. While I realize this is a very fortunate problem to have, it can still feel difficult! In the past I have visited Australia, Thailand, Mexico, the Dom…

Honestly the building itself, all the incredible paintings of Michelangelo, Raphael & Da vinci. The statues. My god its honestly the best museum to spend your day, I can’t wait to…

Best beach towns in Europe My husband and I are trying to branch out in 2024 and do a trip to Europe. We are total beach bums and really love the stress-free vibe of the sea but I’d love to step it up next year and do something familiar while also outside of our comfort zones. Interested in where we should go that’s not a total pain to get to/travel around. We don’t dri…

Do you have one country where travelling there goes wrong Genuine question but also slightly self pitying one. Second attempt this year at Croatia and my wife and I have had vomit bugs on 3 of the 4 days we’ve been here and its potentially going to derail our plans for the next leg. Croatia is somewhere I’ve wanted to visit for years and it’s been a disaster both times so far so pretty bummed out. So w…

First couples trip I’m trying to plan my girlfriend and I’s first trip together and we’re debating between Hawaii and Savannah Georgia. We’ve been together for about 1.5 years and would be going on this trip in late May/early June. We’re both in our mid 20s and are looking for fun nights, good food, and walking around and exploring in the day. Any advice on which …

Can I travel to the United States from my country Mexico if in 2021 I left Europe irregularly for exceeding the 90-day tourist permit by one day? In 2021, my 90 days of traveling through Europe ran out and I was detained when I tried to return to Mexico but through Colombia, which was cheaper than direct. I was detained by border authorities who also found it strange that I wanted to go to Colombia and not return directly to Mexico. They held me for a few hours until they sent me the mone…

Travel in 2024. What this past year has taught us and what you expect for the next adventure It’s my busy season for work and will spend the winter in Florida planning some adventures for next year. Typically, I’ll begin travel in May expecting the weather to be fair and the peak crowds a few weeks away. Then avoid the summer crowds, and take another trip late September. Current wish list is Euro centric as I’d like to visit Portugal an…

From all my travels, I encountered more bed bugs in the west than in Asia somehow? With all the Paris bed bugs news going around, I got into thinking that: out of all the countries I’ve been to, I almost always encounter bedbugs in US & Europe. My mother has been a flight attendant for almost 20 years so my family is well-travelled. We’ve been to 80+ countries. The countries where I saw/got bitten by bed bugs were: USA, Canada…

Traveling as a fearful flier is exhausting. Im very fortunate in that I have the means and flexibility to travel very often. This year I decided to take a one week trip every month, and it’s been wonderful; except for one thing. I’m absolutely terrified of flying. I’m talking to the degree that I will wake up having panic attacks in the middle of the night leading up to a trip, I’ve board…

What song instantly takes you back to a moment in your Travels? I love how certain songs unlock traveling memories. Directly take you back to a specific time and place. There are so many songs that remind me of moments traveling. I’ll pick just one for myself: Anytime I listen to the Justin Bieber album Purpose (songs: Sorry, What Do you Mean, Where are Ü Now) will always make me think of my January 2016 Tha…

Feeling depressed/weird after returning from vacation I’m from Northern Europe and recently travelled to a country in Southern Europe with a good friend who is from there. My friend is from a small village in said country, and we visited for a weekend full of festivities and fun with the locals. I was introduced to his family and all his friends from there, and it was some of the most inviting, war…
