LuggageLimits.com Untangles The Absurd Web Of Baggage Fees
Posted on
Even by the airline industry’s new "charge for everything as many times as you can" standard, checked baggage fees are still absurdly complicated and expensive. Things have gotten to the point where airlines like United are letting passengers pay hundreds of dollars before they fly so they don’t have to pay hundred of dollars when they fly, as if that makes sense. That’s in between dozens of upgrades and conditions and levels that all affect fees in different tangled ways. Passengers today can be excused, then, for not having the first clue what’s going on with luggage—something that new website LuggageLimits.com is set to change.

7 Ways to Explore the World Without Leaving Home
Posted on
Travel can be an escape – a chance to get away from the stress of our daily lives – but it can also be much more. Travel is about exploring a destination (new or familiar), understanding and connecting with the local culture, and seeing how people in a different place live.

IT’S a quarter to five in the morning, and I have a plane to catch in two hours. But why rush out the door if my flight is already delayed? To check its status, I turn to my iPhone, tap on an application called FlightTrack and pull up my flight. It’s on time. Better get out of bed. At the airport, I check for Wi-Fi and update all my newspaper apps (NYTimes, WSJ, USA Today and so on) so I have something to read onboard. And when I arrive at my destination, I use the iPhone to pull up the Yelp app, and its built-in mapping feature, to find the most highly user-rated bars and restaurants.

The JiaYuan matchmaking service in China is hosting a modern-day Cinderella ball. And friends, it’s a juicy one.

Napa Valley’s Top Secrets
Posted on
You don’t need us to tell you that Napa Valley is a nice place to visit. What you do need is a way to lose the masses.
1. There aren’t that many vineyards
Although it has casually been dubbed California’s wine country, Napa Valley is hardly the state’s largest wine-producing region (that honor goes to San Joaquin Valley, 80 miles southeast). Napa’s 400 wineries produce only 4 percent of the state’s wine. The focus here is quality, not quantity.
2. A kitchen shop with character
Hawaiian Airlines Offers Free Flights to the Mainland
Posted on
Hawaii seems like a beautiful place to live – great coffee, awesome surf conditions, nearly perfect weather at all times. But, hundreds of miles out in the Pacific, I imagine it starts to feel a bit isolated, especially with the high cost of flights from the islands back to the mainland US. But for those Hawaiian islanders looking to get away to the rest of the US for a while, Hawaiian airlines, has a pretty great deal.
