Air Travel: What's Hot Now: Types of Airfares

Air Travel: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week

Types of Airfares Jul 31st 2011, 10:00 With airline tickets every person on a flight may have paid a different price to fly. The airlines have a seemingly secretive formula to constructing airfares. Knowing types of airfares and how they apply may not mean that airfares make sense, but you can make sense of them. 1. What is a Fare? Airfares are most often based on one-way or round-trip travel. Fares may be published, unpublished and/or negotiated fares (corporations, or government agencies/organizations may have fares negotiated with an airline at a lower rate). Unpublished fares are also known as consolidated fares and are offered by consolidators and bucket shops. A published fare is one that is available for purchase by anyone. An unpublished fare works a bit differently. When booking a ticket, regardless of whether it is using a published or unpublished fare, there are letters that are assigned to different fares. These letters indicate the class of service, not simply indicating economy or business class, but rather the type of fare that was purchased. Explanations for the different types of airfares such as APEX and full fares.

Air Travel: What's Hot Now: My Packing List - Carry On

Air Travel: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week

My Packing List - Carry On Jul 30th 2011, 10:00 I really hate packing more than carry on luggage when I travel. On most airlines you are allowed to bring 2 pieces of carry on luggage, and instead of checking in luggage, I make sure I pack light. That way the horror stories of lost luggage don't really apply. Now you may prefer to pack differently, but I've written up a list of what I bring with me for travel to warmer climates (and have had a similar list for travels of up to almost 2 months at one time). This is my packing list for my most recent, 2 week, Caribbean vacation: Passport, Wallet and Travel Insurance Guidebook and Phrase book Vitamins / Medications List of Emergency Contacts List of Ailments / Known Conditions / Blood Type List of phone numbers for hotels / airlines Clear Plastic Baggies Clear Plastic Baggy for toiletries including sunblock, bug repellant, toothpaste, moisturizer, antiseptic ointment, antiseptic wipes, bandaids, deodorant, shampoo samples, hair gel, etc. razors, comb/brush 2 wrinkle free dresses (substitute dress pants and shirt for a man) pair of sandals pair of flip flops pair of sneakers pair of aqua shoes (this is me, I don't like touching the sand when I am swimming and can't see what may be on the sand!) swimsuit sunglasses / visor (or ball cap) a warm cardigan or hooded sweatshirt (I wear this on flights so it doesn't take up space, could be substituted for a light jacket) 3 t-shirts 3 tank tops 2 light, see through tops to cover arms 1 pair of sweatpants and t-shirt to sleep in 2 pairs of capris (could be substituted for shorts) 2 light skirts (1 pair of khakis for a man) 8 pairs of underwear, 3 bras 4 pairs of socks 2 pairs of pantyhose (more socks for a man) camera rechargeable batteries and charger travel alarm clock mp3 player Then I still have room for a second carry-on with a few magazines and books and any other etc.s that I may need.

Air Travel: What's Hot Now: Paper Vs. Electronic Tickets

Air Travel: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week

Paper Vs. Electronic Tickets Jul 29th 2011, 10:00 There are two types of tickets that you'll encounter when using an airline, namely the paper ticket and the electronic ticket (also known as ticket-less travel). Paper tickets are quickly being painted with dinosaur strokes - they somehow seem less current. Before weighing in on such perceptions, it is important to look at the advantages and disadvantages of these two types of tickets. Paper tickets are so named because the flight coupons (the pieces of paper that contain the exact flight information and are labeled as flight coupons) are in paper form. With an electronic ticket, this information is held within the airline's reservation system, and is indicated as electronic tickets when you check in. The passenger traveling on an electronic ticket is given a copy of the itinerary, and the contract of carriage. These documents are not a ticket but serve as an indication that you have an electronic one. With an electronic ticket, you do not have the physical ticket in hand. Knowing that paper and electronic tickets are different isn't really enough though; it is important to know what the positives and negatives are as well. Paper tickets are particularly useful if your flight is canceled because of a mechanical or another airline-related problem as opposed to a weather issue. Certainly if a cancellation is weather related, you are stuck. However, if it isn't and you have a paper ticket, you may have a world of options that you possibly haven't considered. If you have a paper ticket on a major airline and are flying out of an airport where another major airline also flies to your destination, having a paper ticket can serve to your advantage. If your flight is canceled, you can ask an agent at another airline whether they will accept your ticket (more difficult to do if there is more than one terminal that airlines fly from to your destination). Often the other airline will, and you are now ahead of those on electronic tickets. You see, with an electronic ticket, because you do not have a physical ticket, you are more at the mercy of the airline you are booked on. And in the case of a non-weather related cancellation, you will be put on the next available flight on that same airline, even if it is hours later. Paper tickets can also be advantageous in situations that don't involve cancellations. Let's say that you are checking the schedules to your destination and discover a more convenient time on another airline. With a paper ticket, you may just be able to switch airlines, particularly if it is a domestic ticket (and not on a charter airline). If it is an international destination, don't bother, as the rules of international tickets vary a great deal, whereas domestic ones are often incredibly similar. I'll demonstrate by example. A very unspoken rule at a major airline was to accept tickets from other airlines if the passengers showed up at check in. It was a large airport with numerous terminals, and a number of airlines served the exact same route. So agents were instructed to scoop the passenger, which meant accepting the passenger's ticket from another airline and taking (scooping) some of the other airline's profit. This does not occur on a consistent level at every airport, but it does happen and could serve to your benefit if you have a paper ticket.

Air Travel: What's Hot Now: Naked Skies - Air Travel in th

Air Travel: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week

Naked Skies - Air Travel in th Jul 27th 2011, 10:00 It isn't the first time that passengers have been invited to fly naked, but it has been a while since the last clothes-optional flight took place a few years ago. This time around, it is a charter flight that is set to operate in July 2008. A German travel agency - OssiUrlaub is currently taking bookings for a same-day roundtrip flight to Usedom in the north of Germany along the German - Polish border. Naturism - or Freikorperkultur (FKK) is German for Free Body Culture, and nudism is not seen as all that unusual in Germany. In fact, the Guide to Germany Travel has a great cultural primer on nudism in Germany, and links to beaches and spas that are all about a clothing-optional vacation experience. So what is a naturist to do who wants to fly in the buff? First, be prepared to dole out a pretty penny for the experience. From Erfurt to to Usedom on the Baltic Sea you'll be looking at 499 euro roundtrip. The date of the flight is set as July 5, 2008. Bookings can be made through OssiUrlaub - in German. A previous venture into a clothing-optional flight was offered by Naked Air to Cancun, Mexico. But that was several years ago. The German experience will allow bookings for up to 55 passengers in total, where one will be able to strip down when at cruising altitude after take-off. No nudity for the staff on board, though- crew will remain fully clothed. Naked Air still has images up, and the story of its clothing optional flight. Just to note - there are no black lines covering up body parts.

Air Travel: What's Hot Now: When Flights Cancel due to Wea

Air Travel: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week

When Flights Cancel due to Wea Jul 27th 2011, 10:00 Hurricanes, blizzards, fog and floods. Just a few of the weather elements that can lead to your flight being canceled. When flights cancel due to adverse weather, airlines usually have a policy set up for passengers. When you see that weather is going to affect your travels, what can you expect? Many of the airlines invoke similar policies for dealing with cancellations or delays due to inclement weather. Similar, not always universal, and you may or may not be protected on another flight. Here is a primer on what your airline policy may look like if your flight is cancelled due to weather (check with the airline you are flying with as not all of these possibilities will necessarily apply): Flexible changes to tickets - may be worded along the lines of being able to move your entire itinerary up to seven days before or after the originally scheduled date. Changing your ticket completely - you may be able to apply the full value of your unused ticket toward the purchase of a ticket to a different destination. Change ticket without penalties - usually at least a one time change without fees is permitted, following the same itinerary. Refunds and partial refunds - with really bad weather, where flight schedules are affected by days rather than hours, airlines may offer to refund your unused ticket and sometimes even the unused portion of your ticket if you have begun travel. No hotel or transport - weather related cancellations exempt the airline from compensating passengers. Inclement weather is considered a force majeure or an act of god, and airlines are not required to pay for food / transport / lodging. Exceptions are sometimes made, but should not be expected. A few tips for dealing with weather related cancellations: Call ahead or check online before you go to the airport. If the roads are treacherous, the runways will be too. If you are at the airport when your flight cancels, you can line up to see a gate agent or at the ticket counter, but this may take a really long time. The gate agent may send you to the ticket counter anyhow, or may be required to leave and go to the next flight. If you are at the airport when your flight cancels call the reservations department immediately. They are the best chance at getting something rebooked for you. If you are at the airport when your flight cancels check both departure and arrival screens. Chances are if flights later than yours are not operating, a later rebooked flight on the same day may end up cancelling. Checking the arrival board will give you an idea of whether enough airplanes are coming in to actually turn around and operate as another flight. If you are at the airport when your flight cancels, and you are a connecting passenger, ask the gate agent if you should head to the ticket counter or if there is a desk for connecting passengers. Although not obligated, many airlines will take care of passengers who are in transit, particularly if the weather delays/cancellations were not foreseen or advised of when you began your journey. Checking the weather at your destination may give you an indication of whether a flight can even fly.

Air Travel: What's Hot Now: Airport and Airplane movies...

Air Travel: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week

Airport and Airplane movies... Jul 26th 2011, 10:00 According to many movies made about airports and airplanes, a disaster is always waiting in the wings. Thankfully, day to day workings in the airlines are far less dramatic. Here are a few of the cinematic interpretations of airports and airplanes for those interested in the drama or thriller genres. The original (or if not, the widely watched!) air disaster movie. This is the movie that helped spawn a generation of spoofs, namely the 'Airplane' series. Dean Martin stars as a pilot. This often overlooked movie with Jimmy Stewart has him star as an engineer who is sent to examine the wreckage of a new airplane designed by the company he works for. Halle Berry and Kurt Russell star in this film involving an airplane being hijacked and the ensuing plan to overcome the terrorist threat in the air. An executive's flight is delayed. During the course of the delay he encounters a man who is trying to return home to attend an important event for his son. The executive (Ben Affleck) switches his ticket with him when flights start up again, so that the man may be there for his son. The plane crashes, and a guilt-ridden Ben Affleck seeks out the widow of the man, and falls in love. After surviving a horrific plane crash Max Klein is changed. The journey to his recovery from the trauma and aftermath of surviving is shared when he meets another survivor of the same air disaster.
