For some reason I find it too cramped to use a laptop in flight. This is suprirsing since my laptop is relatively small and compact, with only a 11.6" screen. I find the seat space (extent and width) too cramped to type. Does anyone else have this...

Hell, What is the best travel vacation package for Puerto Rico?

When pricing flights from Germany to the USA, I found 3 sites that were within a few dollars of each other for the same flight. I went with Cheapoair because at the top of their webpage they advertised "$15 off service fees". Not to be fooled I...

If you've flown more than once, chances are it's happened to you -- an airline losing your luggage. Have you had to buy a whole new wardrobe in Italy after four days without your suitcase? Have you been told that the airline has found your bag,...

I recently made a booking on hostelbookers.com and after reading so many negative reviews of the place decided to cancel my booking. When I went to their website there was a message saying only the hotel would cancel the booking. When i called the...

In my opinion Lufthansa is the worst Airline in the world. They fly on outdated planes and their staff were really unhelpful. It was the worst flight of my life . i think the hostesses were told to ignore me cause i complained. The food was crap...

Gray Line Tours in Las Vegas are horrible. There customer service and shuttle drivers everything is absolutly horrible. Do not pay in advance for any service because they will not come and pick you up when they are supposed to.

What did you find you had to be concerned with versus Domestic travel? Was it something that caused you to not go on your trip. Or how did you get yourself to come to terms with it and go on your trip. Thanks

My brothers girlfriend was coming over from America with their 5 month old daughter. She started off in Ohio and had 2 suitcases checked in as normal and another bag which should have been checked in as well but after being told this was not...

They are and have always been the biggest scam in the travel industry. I suppose the only ones to blame are the idiots (myself included) who keep on coming back hoping that this time it really will be cheaper. It will never be. DONT DONT DONT ever...

We flew from Manchester UK to Burlington Vermont via JFK with Delta. On the return leg we broke the journey for a three day stay in NY. On checking in at Burlington Delta told us that as it was a domestic flight we would have to pay for our...

I retired as a road warrior a few years ago when "safe" travel became destroyed because of terrorist actions. My first experience on a cruise trip happened when we were told that an attack in England required that we fly from Vancouver to PIT w/o...

A thought occured to me, recently: What if the hotels "unbundled" their services the way the airlines do, nowadays? OK, let's say you're staying in a major hotel in New York. The basic fee is $100 per night. However, there are these extra...
