How can I give my Mileage Plus miles to a friend?

Filed under Top Travel Questions
I checked the UA site and they charge a cent for every mile I want to give to my friend plus a 35 dollar processing fee. I can manage the 35 dollars but 130 dollars for giving 13,000 miles to my friend who really needs them to travel to adopt a daughter in a foreign country this fall is a little (a lot) more than I can handle now as I’m on a very tight budget due to medical reasons.

What type of compensation/upgrades can I expect from Apple vacations?
July 25, 2009 by admin
Filed under Top Travel Questions
I recently booked a trip for my family through Apple Vacations. We booked five people and three room. When booking, the flights were listed as “nonstop.” Upon inspecting our confirmation emails, I noticed our return flight in fact has one stop. I’m agitated that we will have this stop on our return flight and am planning on calling Apple to complain. What type of compensation can I expect for what I deem false advertising of the return flight? Is a room upgrade out of reach? thanks.

Vacations for families with a handicap child?
July 22, 2009 by admin
Filed under Top Travel Questions
my family and I always go to the same places for vacation because i have a brother who is in a wheel chair. We wanted to go some place different like Hawaii or something fun like that but it is hard because of my brother. Does anyone have any ideas or know of any travel places that specialize in planning vacations for people who have disabilities? All different types of places including other countries are options for us.
A little info about him: he is 17 , in a wheel chair and has cerebral palsy.
so if anyone has any ideas or knows of a website or a travel place that specializes or can help us plan a trip for next year that would be great.

Places to go on a gap year with a VERY limited budget?
July 15, 2009 by admin
Filed under Top Travel Questions
hello…
I have one year left of school and after this i am planing to go on a gap year to various places with my friend.
However, there are a few problems- we have very little money (job-wise the money we earn is not really enough) and she seems to think that we will be able to travel the whole world with a budget of £1000! Im kind of skeptical about this…
So really I was just wondering what are the best places to go with such a small budget? We are keen to go to Asia (Japan, China, Thailand- par Thailand- quite expensive?) and also a roadtrip around America! Not only this, but also possibly Australia + New Zealand…and Europe! I realise they are such unrealistic and ambitious plans for first time travellers-so which places are the best and cheapest??
We want to get work abroad but also we want to give something back and do some charity work….if that helps?
Whew! Sorry for such a long drivelling question! Please reply!

After our baby reaches 1-2 months old, we’d love to take a week’s vacation as a family to Hawaii. We’re hoping to find somewhere private, out of the way and quiet. These factors are more important than cost. Any ideas?

What is a good digital/film camera for me?

Filed under Top Travel Questions
I travel a lot and LOVE to take pictures. I would really love to have the ability to take high quality pictures (the same quality you can buy in the store).
I have a Kodak Easy share (5 megapixels) camera. I really liked this camera and it took good photos for a beginner model.
However I feel like there was a lot I couldnt do.
I was on a midnight train from Budapest to Serbia and tried to take some pictures from it with the window open. The pictures couldnt turn out. It was an unbelievable shot that I missed.
I would really love a camera that would be able to take quality pictures from moving trains and other things. I dont want to spend a fortune (nothing over $500).
I am a beginner with cameras, but photography is something I would love to learn.
Any Ideas on a good camera that would fit my budget?

When Germans took Strength through Joy vacations during the Third Reich, did they have to pay for them?
July 6, 2009 by admin
Filed under Top Travel Questions
I know that the Third Reich had a program called Strength through Joy, which provided holidays (both domestic and international), concerts, plays, and other events to entertain the German people. However, I was wondering if the vacations were free to the people who took them or if they just got discounts that enabled them to go. Does anyone here know?
