Help with Virgin Travel Points!

Is there actually any way you can use your points to get a good deal? I am from the UK so US connecting flights wouldn’t be of use to me. TIA submitted by /…

Travel insurance when using points I am doing a big trip with my family of 5 in April. I am paying for the entire hotel with points transferred to Marriott (no additional booking fee) and the flights with points transferred to airline partners (some additional booking fees). I plan to pay the airline booking fees with my chase sapphire reserve, which I believe will activate the t…

Travel Backpacks, What’s The Go-To? Hi all, hope you’re having a great weekend. I’m 20 years old, and not necessarily new to travel by any means, but I’m not exactly a top-tier pro either. I’ve always travelled using a small backpack or just a bag as I usually only travel for weekends. However, I’m looking to not only travel a lot more this coming year but also for longer term. Du…

Taiwan, Yilan Travel Sharing Wasn’t able to find a great deal of Yilan travel on Reddit so now that I have finished my trip I thought I will do some sharing. Day 1 We flew in to Taoyuan Airport then took the express train to Taipei station then took the bus from 台北轉運站. The bus leaves every half hour and the journey was about an hour to Jiaoxi.

US Southern Travel In Winter We were looking at traveling from South Carolina along the bottom of Mississippi and over to Arkansas in February, and we wanted to know how the weather would be. We’re pretty used to driving in snow, and such, but if it’s too cold out to enjoy ourselves, we might want to reconsider. We looked at average temps, and such and they weren’t too bad….

Midwest Travel Ideas? Hey! My high school friends and I take girls trips to new locations across the midwest United States every year. We rotate what direction we go since we’re living all over the place (Rochester, MN, Kansas City, Southern WI, etc.). This year, we’re going up towards Rochester, but we are all willing to travel! We normally look for camping, histori…

What do you reminisce about after years of travel? Do you feel nostalgia or miss a particular person you’d met or a place? For me I lost contact of lots of people I met along the road in this 10 year period of travel + temporary relocation. Keep in mind my, a lot happens in this timeline, you part ways, inadvertently lose your number or have your phone stolen, lose touch with one another, etc. b…

Am I being realistic with my travel plans? I recently decided to quit my job in January and travel through SEA with one backpack. This has been a longtime dream, and I’ve finally saved enough for both the trip and a cushion to return home and job hunt afterward.

What does travel in a city mean to you? I’m traveling to London soon, and I find myself wondering how to approach exploring a big city. Everywhere I look, recommendations seem to revolve around buildings, museums, statues, or restaurants. Is that all there is to it?

Belize travel questions Planning a trip to Belize for my two daughters (10 and 12) and I. Planning to land and go to San Ignacio to check out ATM. I want to see ruins – so does it make sense to do a day trip to Guatemala for that? Then want to head to the coast for beach/snorkeling. Where should we go? Should I rent a car or use yours? TIA! submitted by /u/E…

Travel camera? Hello! I’m planning a multi-week trip to Africa & later in the year, Eastern Europe. I would love to find a smaller, easy to travel with & cheap camera to capture my travels.

Final Contenders: AER Travel Pack 3 35l vs Osprey Fairpoint 40l vs Eagle Creek Travel Pack 40l Hello, I’m doing my first out-of-country solo trip to Europe in the summer of 2025. I have narrowed my list to these 3 backpacks mainly because they all fit as carry-ons for most airlines. They are all fairly similar in price and looking at reviews on all of them, I don’t see a huge upside or downside to any of these. If you all could help me an…

Trip-spanning travel games? When I was young, I went on this summer camp and there was this game where someone would be wearing a clip called the “yes-clip”. Any time that person would ask you a question and you responded with “yes” you would have to take over the clip and had to get rid of it by asking people questions. The goal was to not have it at the end of the day an…
