I was hoping people could give me some advice on other countries to go as I am hoping to travel for a year. So far I have China, Japan, Fiji, Thailand, New Zealand and Australia. I would quite like to go to south america as well as maybe madagascar. Also tips about getting work while out there would be very much appreciated. Thanks!!

I’m about to move from the UK to Portugal and I would like to take some of my belongings with me. But I’m afraid that this will cost me a lot so I’m viewing my options to decide if it is in fact the best thing to do or sell them. I really think that the amount I would like to transport, fill a cargo van.

Weighing luggage on the bathroom scales is not very accurate. How fussy are they at check-in?

I printed a shipping label and paid for postage online. Do I just hand the box w/ the pre-paid label to the USPS counter people or is there some drop off container in which I can just leave it?

I estimated the weight of my package to be 3 pounds, but it may be more...

Thanks for the help

My wife and her mate are taking all the kids to Disney Paris for the weekend on the Eurostar and the ticket says 20kg max per person luggage allowance. As they are only going for the weekend, she has got all the luggage (her and our 2 kids) in one large case which weighs 23kg. She doesn't want to take 2 cases but she is worried that the single case weight will be too much and she may be turned away at the check-in. Can anyone advise??

Are those quart sized plastic bags for carrying on board (i.e. tooth paste, hand lotion, lip gloss, etc) or are they required for your luggage that goes down to the cargo of the plane? It's been like 7 years since the last time I flew overseas so I'm just asking around.

I'm curious cause sometimes I get these sharp toe nails (corner's usually) out of the blue and they bug me and if I'm allowed to bring one with me I'm able to clip them off without trying to pry them off with a pen or other things plus bleeding and etc. Is there a site that I can find out what I can bring and not bring on board?

My husband and I are planning a getaway this fall to celebrate our anniversary. We just want a quick getaway - 3-5 days(ish), and nothing terribly expensive. We've already done the all-inclusive carribean thing. We're thinking a cruise, or something like that, but we need some ideas. Where is your favorite place to go for a quick getaway?

I applied for a passport on Feb 1st, it has been 19 days. The Clerk of Court took the check out of my bank but the passport agency has not taken the passport charges. My fiance and I are both not in the system on the Dept of State website "check your status" link. I have been trying 1 day last week, and then again today at 10:40,11:10, 12:35, 1:47, and then again at 2:15 to call the agency to get the status...No answer. Infact it goes through a thing"we are experiences high call volume...please call back or go online...thank you ...click". I need it by April 25th, and that is exactly 10 weeks from when I turned it in (10 wks is the longest it will take) but the website says it is available to track after 9 days and it has been 19! Help! Anyone have the problem and resovled it? any clues? I need the birth certificate I turned in with it to get on the cruise, or else I have to buy another one!
