How do airlines get away with over-selling flights?
As I understand it they do it because they dont want to lose money from people not turning up. Fine, I can see their point of view. But why dont they just not give refunds to those that do not turn up.
They should leave home in plenty of time to get there.
How can they justify leaving people stranded when they reasonably expected that because they have a ticket they would get on the flight?

I need to go from England to Hangzhou in China in September and I don't know the best (cheapest, safest) way to do it. I'm female and I'll be travelling alone with my six month old son.

It seems like it might be easier to get a flight to Hong Kong and then travel to Hangzhou from Hong Kong but I'd welcome any advice anyone has on this?
thanks

I have a few questions that needs to be answered on the topic of Avenue Q in London!

1) I really want to meet the cast of Avenue Q and get their autographs. I will be going to the 5:30pm show on a Friday (ends around 7:45pm).
The question is - Will I be able to meet the cast? Because as soon as the first show finishes, they will need to get ready for the next show which starts at 8:30pm.

2) Where are the best seats in the theatre?

3) Are the any other places where you can buy Avenue Q tickets APART from the internet?

Much help appreciated.

And if any of the questions do not make any sense at all, please tell me.

My husband and I are tired of living in the northeast because of the cold season. We are planning to move to Las Vegas to be close to his brother for a future collaboration of a project and at the same time relocate there. I am just curious, because I've heard that the school system in Las Vegas sucks? How really bad it is? How come the residents themselves are discouraging us to move. My husband is a schoolteacher and we need to know how is the education system there? What are the other "bad things" that residents talk about their own Las Vegas. I used to live in NYC but I never dread living there. Currently, we live in CT, although we don't think we dislike it here other than the "too expensive real estate and too high electricity rates , and the extreme cold weather " we still think it's best for us to relocate to Las Vegas--urbane, lower taxes, no winters, and its opportunities. What do you think? Is Las Vegas a really a "hateful" place that even its own residents dread living?

Ok, my friends and I are planning a trip to Times Square, New York, to see the ball drop this year. It will take us four hours to drive and the price of gas. Or we can fly and take us and hour and $800. I know that flying would be quicker, but money wise we are not sure. Plus, we will have to get a hotel room. But my question is if we drive how much gas would be needed for a 20 gallon tank to get us all the way to New York? Say he drives 65 miles an hour the whole way, which he will probably either go slower or faster but that is the average. How much gas would be needed then. Sorry I am not a math person. Anyone who has been to NY, give me some ideas on the Hotel, Gas prices, I know they will rise or fall, the cost of things, Ect. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Also we are planning to leave on the 28th of Dec. and Return the 2nd of Jan. Anyone's answers are welcome. Thanks soo much to anyone who answers. Also, we live near D.C. if that helps anyone out. Thanks.

I am planning on traveling to Tuscon, AZ from Los Angeles, CA. I have to take the train to LA, a shuttle to LAX, and then board the flight.

The thing is, the train arrives at 9:25am, the shuttle to LAX leaves at 9:30, promising a commute of 45 minutes or less. So that means that I will get there at 10:15 give or take. There is a flight to AZ that departs at 10:40. I will only have one carry-on, like a large school backpack so I don't think I will have to check any luggage. Should I book the 10:40 flight or wait until the next one and book the one at 1:45?

Okay, I bought the medieval vacation package, and the idiots messed up my order with some other family and we were sent to the roaring twenties. We told them about this and they said they would bring us back to the present before they got this all straightened out, they were off by a couple of millennium and we got stuck here. Our transmitter is broken and we have no Idea what they're doing about this, I'm just wondering if there are any other vacationers in this time that know what to do. Everybody else, you're going to forget you ever read this.
