Can someone explain to me the Emirates hype? I just saw two separate comments saying that Emirates economy is superior than others. I’ve always heard about the great value of business class but was never tempted, especially since I’ve been a long time Star Alliance Gold as a carryover from my business travel days and covid status extensions. I finally lost status after a good run and have…

What do you use to plan what to do and visit in a country / region / city / continent? Do you generally just google / youtube top things to do? Do you have places you use for food / restaurants vs nature vs museums vs buildings? Do you go by UNESCO (maybe there is a nice formatted site for this, have had a hard time navigating their site or maybe I have the wrong one. It would be ideal to have a map view, especially to see what’s …

More reasonable week trip from the East Coast: Africa or Asia? Title pretty much says it all but I’m only have a week off of work this winter to take a trip. I took trips to Portugal and Brazil last year so was hoping to try a new continent. When you factor in weekends I’ll basically have nine days total to travel for. Considering the length and cost of flights as well as how much can be done in a week woul…

New Orleans was amazing! New Orleans is always a fun time. Here’s all the places I visited. 📍Royal House: I got the Shrimp and Grits. They were delicious! I give them an 8.5/10. I ate them later as leftovers without warming them up and they still hit. 📍Cafe Du Monde (800 Decatur St): Ofc I got the beignets. They were piled with powdered sugar. I’ve had them fresh before…

Departing flight on day 31 of 30 day visa So I’ve booked a flight to Sri Lanka on 17 Aug, arriving at 10.30pm. I have a 30 day visa.

Will this be an issue? Am i better off just booking a ticket on 15 Sept, (…

TSA agent didn’t believe my drivers license was me Was flying home from Newark last month and got to the TSA agent, gave her my ID. She took a quick look at it, then me, and says “hmm. You look different.” I took my hat and glasses off to see if that would help her. No luck. Mind you, I had not lost/gained weight or had plastic surgery or something like that. I had gotten highlights in my hair t…

Decisions Decisions | Justify Paying $1800 to Fly Emirates from JFK to BKK I m planning my first ever solo traveling trip for my 30th birthday to Thailand in January. I m hoping either someone could talk some sense into me or give me the green light to just say “f%*k it” I’d like to go from January 10th-January 21st. Emirates has a flight that’ll cost me $1,800. The flight duration is shorter because the layover in Dub…

Trans Mongolian Express after Backpacking Asia I’ll start by kindly asking if this post could remain about travel and not politics. I’m really struggling to find up to date information on this topic, and despite the controversy of wanting to visit Russia, I will just own it and say I still want to visit in my lifetime. My plan is to do a working tourist Visa in Australia for one year, trave…

TSA Precheck about to lapse. Does Global Entry automatically kick in? I have TSA PreCheck that is about to lapse early next year. However, I also have Global Entry that will still be good for several years. Once my TSA PreCheck lapse, do I just switch to giving my PassID number when the airliner webpage asks for my KTN when booking flights? Do I have to notify anyone that I’m switching to using Global Entry? All m…

Is 9 days enough time for Seattle to San Diego and back by car? Thinking about driving from Seattle to San Diego somewhat spontaneously down the pacific coast highway (had a tropical vacation booked but there was a natural disaster). My SO’s priority is forests and mountains, and we’re from Washington and I’ve done Northern California a lot (he hasn’t). I loved Glacier and I do like going to Olympic, but I’m…
