17″ airline seats – just how awful are they? This is a bit of a first-world-problems post, but I’ve always opted for airlines that use 18″+ wide seats in economy as I can get a little claustrophobic when crammed in. When booking LHR-BKK flights a little while ago, I chose EVA Airways precisely because they boasted 18.5″ seats in the economy cabin, in a 3×3 configuration. However, a while a…

Traveling to Nepal mid November for EBC trek but rethinking due to recent plane and helicopter crashes So my initial plan was to catch the flight from Kathmandu to lukla then get a helicopter back down to lukla from gorekshep.

Will Italy be the determining authority on this since it’s where we initially fly out of or will…

Help me not embarrass myself while making reservations. In countries that use the 24h clock, how do I say the time aloud? In the US, the 24h clock is most often used by the military, who would say something like “eighteen-hundred hours” for 18:00 or 6pm. Will most people know what I mean if I saw 6pm? 18 o’clock seems not right. Help me. submitted by /u/SaltyMargaritta

HELP- TAP Portugal moved my 3 year old randomly to his own seat in a completely different section without notifying us- what can I do? Hi Reddit fam.

My son cannot hear or speak…

Question for flight attendants Yesterday I was on a BA PHL-LHR flight, in an exit row. About an hour in I woke up from an odd smell, and found myself and the person next to me wreathed in acrid smoke, seemingly coming from under our seats. We hopped up and got the flight attendants of course, and they did an awesome job moving people away from the potential fire, getting an e…

Why is there an age restriction in hostels? Something I never understood is age restriction, is it to keep the vibes young? Are older guys (40 to 55) not that fun or enjoyable? I’m asking cause I often enjoy the company of older guys and they seem to be easygoing. submitted by /u/Mountain_Refuse5567
