Don’t Get Caught Without Adequate Travel Insurance

November 30th, 2009 . by admin

My son got to travel abroad for a class trip to take part in a sports camp, and he was so excited to go. I received a phone call on the second day of his trip, and it was his coach telling me that he was fairly sure my son had broken his arm during a game. At that moment, I was so relieved that I had purchased travel insurance for him. He had to go to the hospital and get x-rays and also a splint put on his arm. He has since recovered, but I am so glad that we were able to utilize that policy.

November 22nd, 2009 . by admin

We missed our flight and tried to get another one. It wasn’t a holiday but for some reason all the airlines were over booked. We decided to fly stand-by. We waited and waited, still no seats were available. We were able to get a seat one at a time but not 3 together so we decided to wait. The later it got, the more tired we became. Finally we asked about nearby hotels. An airline personnel told us about hotels wellington. She said that it was where she suggested most people to stay because she had stayed at one of the hotels and she really liked it. So did we.

Check For Availability of Amenities When Booking Singapore Accommodation

November 17th, 2009 . by admin

Because it is one of the most popular travel destinations in Asia you will find that there are several Singapore accommodation choices for you to decide from when booking travel.  Many of these choices will offer a wide variety of amenities such as air conditioning, and cable television.  If these are options that you think that you would like to have in the room you will be renting then you should check with the establishment to make sure that they offer these things.  Never expect that they are included, especially if the advertisement for the lodging does not say that they do.  Making sure that these types of things are available will ensure that you are not unpleasantly surprised upon your arrival.


Where Do They Put the Contraband?

November 17th, 2009 . by admin

When we got to the airport, it seemed to take forever getting through the security check points. While we bothered to check the Flight FAQ’s and procedures before we left home, it seems we were about the only ones. Almost every person in front of us had something illegal or labeled contraband in their luggage.  I know that the airlines have to be careful these days, but the things they tossed out seemed silly to me.  I also worry about the cost of all of those things and where they go when they’re tossed out of the luggage. Inquiring minds just want to know.

Red Sox

November 16th, 2009 . by admin

I was off to Boston for a week to visit some friends. I figured I should really try and get myself a vehicle so that I could drive myself around town and also do a day trip that I was keen on. I thought there must be a company at or near the airport that does car rental so I should be able to just sort one out when I get there. Fortunately I did get a car, the difficult part was trying to find my way around Boston, I had never been there before so it was tricky to say the least.

Treat for the Family

November 13th, 2009 . by admin

My family has been through a lot of stress lately. Our precious Golden Retriever that my kids grew up with as babies just passed away. No one at my household can get out of the funk that we are in. So, I had a great idea. I decided to book us on a flight using Private Air Charters. We have never been to Arizona and the Grand Canyon so that is where we are going to go, and we will be going in style. I know that this trip will never replace our beloved dog, but it will be something special.
