What The Airlines Don’t Tell You
Never accept the first fare quoted. Half the time, some other airline’s flight within hours of the one you booked has a special, less expensive deal.
Take advantage of “illegal” connections. These are connecting fights usually less than 45 minutes apart-too close for airlines to feel safe in making them connect. Result.- These flights usually do not even show up on the computer when your trip is being routed. Have your agent write up your flight on two separate tickets. The second is for the illegal connection that originates at your transfer point.
Example: You arrive at O’Hare in Chicago on the way to San Francisco.
Instead of waiting three hours for the safe connecting flight, you already have a separate ticket from O’Hare to San Francisco on an illegal connection. If you miss the connection, you turn that ticket in for the next available flight. Cost for two separate tickets.- No more than one through ticket. Baggage.- Waiting for it to be unloaded can cost you valuable time on this tight schedule. Best.- Travel with carry-on luggage.
Some supersaver fares are so low that even if you can’t stay as long as their requirements (some ally seven days), you will save by buying two round-trip tickets-one from your home to your destination for the day you want to leave and one from your destination to your home for
the day you want to return. The total may be less than the regularround-trip fare.
If you miss your flight and there’s just time to catch another, go right to the other airline’s departure gate instead of to its ticket counter. If it has an empty seat, the second airline will usually honor the ticket for the flight you missed.
Best seat in the plane. After first class, the choices center on your priorities. For comfort and a smooth ride, pick a seat over the wings. For silence, sit as far forward as possible, but avoid the galley and rest rooms. For leg room, try the first row or seats beside the emergency exits.
Then sit back and enjoy your flight to your fabulous vacation!

Is your carry-on bag legal?
Many luggage stores sell suitcases described as ‘carry-on’, but these suitcases are sometimes larger than the size most airlines will accept. That’s why you should purchase Coleman luggage because all their carry on luggage fits all the pre-requisites of all the airlines today. The safe maximum size is 45″, in the form of a 22″ x 14″ x 9″ bag. Some airlines allow up to as much as 55″, but most do not.
Update mid 2008 With the airlines starting to charge for checked bags, more passengers are trying to beat these charges by carrying more items on planes – larger and heavier bags. The airlines, in turn, now have a financial incentive to enforce their carry on bag limits, so be aware and anticipate increasing attention and enforcement of carry-on weight limits in the future.
What You Need to Know in Advance of Travel.
All travelers should familiarize themselves with conditions at their destination that could affect their health (high altitude or pollution, types of medical facilities, required immunizations, availability of required pharmaceuticals.
Insurance, Medicare & Medicaid, Medical Evacuation
If your insurance policy does not cover you abroad, it is a good idea to consider purchasing a short-term policy that does. There are health insurance policies designed specifically to cover travel. Many travel agents and private companies offer insurance plans that will cover health care expenses incurred overseas including emergency services such as medical evacuations.
Bringing Medications or Filling Prescriptions Abroad
A traveler going abroad with a preexisting medical problem should carry a letter from the attending physician, describing the medical condition and any prescription medications, including the generic names of prescribed drugs. Any medications being carried overseas should be left in their original containers and be clearly labeled. Travelers should check with the foreign embassy of the country they are visiting to make sure any required medications are not considered to be illegal narcotics.
If you wear eyeglasses, take an extra pair with you. Pack medicines and extra eyeglasses in your hand luggage so they will be available in case your checked Coleman luggage is lost. To be extra secure, pack a backup supply of medicines and an additional pair of eyeglasses in your checked luggage.
If you have allergies, reactions to certain medications, foods, or insect bites, or other unique medical problems, consider wearing a “medical alert” bracelet. You may also wish to carry a letter from your physician explaining required treatment should you become ill.
Places to Receive Mail
If you will be abroad for an extended period, you may want to arrange for the delivery of your mail. Some banks and international credit card companies handle mail for customers at their overseas branches. In addition, post offices in many countries will hold mail for travelers under their General Delivery services. U.S. Embassies and Consulates do not handle private mail. Check with the embassy of your destination country to see if that will be possible there. A listing of foreign embassies and consulates in the U.S. is available on the Department of State’s website. Foreign embassy and consulate contact information can also be found on the Country Specific Information for each country.
I hope you find this information useful and helps you in planning your next extended vacation.
Treat Yourself to Great Luggage!
When it comes to luggage, there’s no sense in purchasing a low quality luggage set. The best luggage sets will last for decades, and it’s smarter and much more affordable to opt for purchasing a single executive luggage set instead of purchasing multiple inexpensive luggage sets throughout a lifetime. When choosing an executive luggage set, it’s important to be aware of the factors that cause luggage to wear down over time. Luggage that’s made from leather, for example, is much more resilient than that made of other fabrics like nylon. It’s also a good idea to check reviews of the manufacturer’s luggage as a whole. The internet is always a great resource for reading owner reviews of various luggage sets.
For those who own a quality executive luggage set, make sure to take care of it when it’s not in use. Store it in a cool and dry place, and make sure the luggage is emptied out when it is not in use. When taking the luggage on trips, slap a “Fragile” sticker on the top of it, and airport workers just might be a little more liable to handle it with care!
