McDonald’s in the US is the worst version of McDonald’s. Hello y’all! Spain you can buy beer, espresso, pastries, chicken wings. Finland has espresso, pastries, amazing macaroons. Italy you can get pesto, chicken wings. Also it’s cheaper and better quality. I’m not saying McDonalds is good or you should consider it when you travel. But American McDonald’s is the worse version. submitted by …

Flying from US to Paris My family of 5 will be vacationing in Paris for a week in 2024, then traveling to Rome to board a Mediterranean cruise. Three ADHD kids will keep it interesting. None of us have ever traveled to Europe. First, are the main cabin or economy seats on a trans-Atlantic flight generally any more roomy than domestic flights? Is an upgrade worth it? Ch…

To our knowledge it’s just cons…

Any advice on an easy way – one stop way – through for a one time order valued at $39.97 with less than 1kg waste glass less than 1kg waste paper. No other waste. Traveling from the US to Germany. Could I go to the UPS store directly? Any…

UK to US: ESTA or Visa? Hoping someone here can help. I’m a UK citizen, living in the UK, and working for a UK company.

Has anyone imported products from China to a US 3PL, without being a US citizen themselves? How does it work? I need to import a fairly simple product from a manufacturer in China, to a 3PL in the US, but I live in Europe and have no idea where to start? How do I deal with customs, toll and all of that?

Any European shops selling to the US? Is there import VAT in the US? I’ve read that there is no import VAT when selling to the US, which would be amazing if true, can anyone confirm that? And is there usually any extra fees for handling? When I sell from the EU to the UK, customers have to pay VAT when it crosses the border, which really hurts conversions. submitted by /u/Flakowski

People can fly between countries on airlines like Easy Jet and Volotea for a fraction of what it costs to fly from one state to another in the US.
