Qantas vegan/vegetarian meals? I have searched and searched for current examples of vegetarian/vegan meals on international long-haul Qantas flights and can’t find much. Can anyone share examples of what they have been given? I’m flying premium economy submitted by /u/temasm21

Thoughts on taketours.com Hi all! I’m planning a trip to Cali and am debating on booking a 5 day tour with the TakeTours company. Has anyone used them? Can you share your experience? I’m traveling alone so the price is $1170 and I was debating on saving $ by renting a car and driving solo to tour Cali but the thought of sharing the experience with a professional tour gu…

What are some touristy things in your city that are actually fun or enjoyed by locals? I live in Washington DC, I enjoy the cherry blossoms in the Spring and I love visiting the Smithsonian museums all year long. They’re always doing new collections or events! submitted by /u/ghdawg6197

International flights and carryons Is there ever a case where carryons have to be checked due to space limitations on international flights? I know this happens often on domestics flights. I usually have to do plane side pickup. I’m flying solo internationally with only a carryon, so I’m trying to anticipate potential problems and hiccups. Thanks! If it helps, im flying United….

First-time international flyer – Is a 1hr layover enough in PHX? I’m returning from Mexico later this week and being the complete novice flyer that I am, I noticed my layover is only 1 hour in PHX. MTY > PHX lands at 9:00am PHX > SJC leaves at 10:00am (yikes) Now that I’ve gone through customs once in Mexico, I noticed that this is not a quick process and 1 hour is probably not enough to get out and run to my…

How do you decide if a travel destination is safe enough? Hey travelers, the older I get the more I am concerned about safety when traveling. I want to prepare as good as possible but it is difficult to find good data. You see a lot of posts in this sub where people ask if a destination is safe or not. The answers are usually of the same type: “dont worry, I was there last month an everything went well…

Which option is better for flights? Hello everyone, idk if this is the right sub where I’m supposed to ask this question but, I’m traveling from France to Korea then to Japan. Which option would be better for flights and less issues at the airports: A) take a round trip France-Korea then another round trip Korea-France (which I guess is cheaper but since these flights won’t be wit…

Am I crazy? Itinerary check for a breakneck 16 nights in Japan. This will be my first solo trip abroad, and while I’m considering just booking a month in an extended stay in Tokyo and spacing things out, it might be a long time to be alone. Instead I’ve come up with the below, and I will put points of interest on each, but this will be non-exhaustive and I will want to play things by ear in at least Tokyo. I…

How to book car transfers and excursions in India? Hey, Me and my boyfriend are going to India in December from the UK. We’re going to a variety of locations: Aurangabad, Kerala (Kochi, Munnar and Alleppey), Goa and Mumbai. We want to avoid public transport as much as possible because we will mostly have our luggage with us. Some of the drives that will be included in our trip: Airport transfe…

another reason to avoid kiwi air I booked my adult son a trip from Halifax-Toronto-Calgary. After he was already past security, Kiwi sent me text and email telling me that there was a delay with the first flight of 55 minutes and thus “There’s not enough time to transfer” along with a link to “check my options”. At this point there was no one at the gate to talk to for another…

Is two weeks enough to see Japan and South Korea? The plan is late October. My question is is two weeks enough time? I want to see a mix of city and country life in both. 16 days. Should I stay in one country instead? Thanks! submitted by /u/SnooHesitations8361

Girlfriend coming to US for the first time – should we be concerned with border control? My girlfriend is coming to the US next week on a Polish passport. We have flights booked both ways for her and are doing the ESTA in a couple of days. I’ll be paying for her and accommodating her while she’s here, and I was wondering if this might cause some issues at the border, though I’m probably overthinking. Though I don’t have time to send…

I’m a dual USA + NZ citizen; USA resident. I have travel planned for Albania, England, and Germany. Is there any reason /not/ to use my USA passport? I think it makes the most sense to be using the passport of my place of residence which I can imagine avoiding weirdness around my home address not matching my passport country, and honestly that the USA international apparatus (embassies etc.) is far more robust than NZ’s. That being said, am I missing any obvious reasons to use my NZ passport …

Lake Bohinj, Slovenia An easy get-away from the capital, just a bit past Lake Bled through a valley and flower filled meadows. Lake Bohinj gives you options of gentle hikes along dramatic river gorges, longer hikes switchbacking up to waterfalls and massive lake views, and, ofcourse, just grabbing some beer and salami and hanging out on the shores of the lake with yo…

Jordan Entry Question Has anyone traveled to Jordan recently? We were told we have to fill out a Jordan declaration form to get a QR code in order to get on the plane. When I tried to fill out the form a notification tells me it’s not a requirement. However everywhere online says it still is required. Does anyone on here know if getting a QR code to get on the plane …

Travelling in Mexico In Jan/Feb 2024 I’ll be going to Mexico with a friend. The 3 main places I want to visit are Mexico City, Yucatan and Puerta Vallarta. The options for getting to these places seem to be planes and buses, or we hire a car. We want to minimise the amount of air travel, but I want to get some opinions on the best way to do this. Car hire costs ~$40…
