  • Videos of Unruly Passengers, we like these like Candy

    Videos of Unruly Passengers, we like these like Candy

    Are you watching videos of people out of control on airplanes? There is something addictive and I admit I love watching them. 

    Not wearing a mask? Using profanity at staff? Refusing to sit down? Being an obnoxious copycat with a political agenda?  Since February 2021, airlines reported 1300 incidents to the FAA. This is a huge increase but still rare.  Just be aware of the trend; maybe be more sympathetic to airline staff? 

    Since April mask wearing in airports and on airplanes has been federal law.

    Let me start by saying these  thoughts come from talking to you out there and from my friends.

    Planning a trip as a solo is a different exercise.…

  • Travel Brochure Turn Off’s for Women

    We love them but we hate them. Travel brochure photos tell a story about who is welcomed on the trip and who is not. A look at many brochure photos says this to women:

    Don’t come alone. Dining photos show either couples, families or groupings of people who seem to know each other: toasting together or looking familiarly at one another. You don’t ever see a captain’s table with an empty seat not yet taken? In fact, you don’t see travelers shaking hands and meeting each other either.…

     
  • Do Not’s on Planes in Cold Weather

    Here are some Do Not’s on Planes in Cold Weather. We suggest more comfort on planes in cold weather.

    1–Do not sit next to the airplane window, unless you are wearing heavy socks. And if a long flight, consider compression socks.
    2–Do not overdress, but layer with room in your carry on for the second layer you will take off (too easy to forget!) Note: you are more likely to lose clothing you take off if it is dark. Lighter and brighter items will show up on the seat or floor near your seat.…

  • Why Not Give Yourself a unique Birthday Gift?

    Why Not Give Yourself a unique Birthday Gift?

    Most of us don’t want more stuff. We want excitement and experiences to think over in quiet moments. Most of us don’t want another apply cinnamon candle or herbal soap selection for birthdays.

    The solution: go away for your special day.

    Here is why in 5 short reasons:

    You get what you really want: a trip just for you, un-compromised by friends who cannot decide. Or by friends who impose their schedule on your needs.
