Is December a bad time to visit Mexico City?

( www.reddit.com )

Is December a bad time to visit Mexico City? Hi everyone! I was looking into visiting Mexico City in December, but I’ve been reading online that it’s actually one of the worst months to visit due to increased numbers of tourists, traffic, etc. This was a bit surprising for me as I would’ve expected it to be a quieter month, but it makes sense that people are coming from all over Mexico to …

Got a traffic ticket from Italy 9 months later. Is it legit?

( www.reddit.com )

Got a traffic ticket from Italy 9 months later. Is it legit? I drove around Amalfi Coast last January in a rented car. The other day, I got a ticket in the mail (in USA). Not 100% sure that it’s legit, or someone is trying to scam me. But the dates mentioned do match up with when I was there. The ticket says I drove on the road without authorization. Which is possible, though I wasn’t aware that one need…

Is a first class upgrade worth the price to avoid the soreness? Hey there! Traveled to Japan earlier this year and in the process of planning my next one. Had a question though about seating on the flight itself. I flew United and went with economy to save money. The amount of physical pain I was in though was nutty. Those seats had to have had like negative support or something because that was the first ti…

Those with iPhone 14- how has ESIM been when traveling internationally?

( www.reddit.com )

Those with iPhone 14- how has ESIM been when traveling internationally? Every time I travel I usually end up spending $10-$20 on a local SIM with plenty of data. The same Verizon charges me for 1-2 days. Considering a jump to the iPhone 15 but really hesitant because the US version is ESIM only. I haven’t travelled a lot in the past 12 months, but I am not sure if I’ve ever been to a country where a local ESIM was …

Snowy luxury hotels for a cozy, introverted trip? I’m dreaming of a trip somewhere I can sit in a hot tub, read a book and look out over a snowy landscape. Can anyone recommend a hotel in the alps or similar that’s well-equipped (modern facilities, good food or access to restaurants) and ideally not extremely difficult to get to? I don’t ski but I’m not opposed to a ski resort. Mostly care abou…

Small Town to Relax in France I’d love to fly into Paris and take a train to a small French town where I can relax, unwind, sit at cafes, ride a bike, and get away from it all. Reims is too large of a city. Colmar is a possibility, though a bit far. Any suggestions? submitted by /u/whereisgirlfriday

Would you consider a one day airplane trip via Frontier or Spirit Airlines to another city to just bum around town? In my hometown, you can take Spirit, Frontier and a couple of other low cost airlines to a number of cities for under $100 Round Trip. I can fly to Fort Lauderdale for under $50 RT. This is true only if I don’t bring a bag or reserve a seat. One weekend I was bored and decided to fly to Fort Lauderdale Florida for the day. I left early in the mo…

Morning means less delays and you have the whole day in your new destination. But it means you can’t sleep in and get the most of your acco…
