If the plane ticket is made under my maiden name and my passport still has my maiden name, how will anyone know that is no longer my legal name?

I don't believe the media. Did the Twin Towers really fall? If they did, why are we still being searched at the airports?

If your passport has expired over a year would you have to pay a fine?

I have been a travel agent for 3 years and before I became an agent, I ALWAYS booked my leisure travel through an agent. I cross my eyes sometimes with some of the outragous questions I see on here. If people just picked up the phone and spoke to someone that knows the industry and what they were talking about they would be much better off. I'm not talking about transportation. Meaning if you are going from LA to NYC and staying with your aunt, purchasae your ticket online. But if you need a package or leisure vacation you're robbing yourself of value. I don't know of an agent that adds service fees unless it's only airline tickets. Airlines don't pay commission to agents so they must add on a service fee. But for packages we're compensated once the client travels. We're also educated by product seminars and have relationships with vendors that can add value. I just don't understand why people rob themselves of service. The internet is a great resourse tool and so is a travel agent

I am wanting to travel the world at cheap costs but still be able to see and do wonderful things. I am not sure how to even begin my planning. I want to go to multiple countries so what would I need or need to do? Is there a website that could state specifics? How much money should I take as spendings?

Could someone help me out?

I'm travelling to NYC the first week of July. Should I get my ticket now (The cheapest one I found was $428) or should I wait to see if I can get a better deal?

I'm just worried if I wait I won't be able to get good times and the correct days and such...

What do you think?

thanks so much

Over spring break i stayed in a hotel all week and I cant help but notice that regardless of the quality of the hotel, the beds are always so soft. Is it just the mattresses they use or what?? and how can i make my bed that comfortable?

USPS advertises its PRIORITY mail as 3-4 days.
However, on average does this holds true to Guam?

thanks

I'm staying in a hotel, long-term due to some house damage brought on by a deep freeze in the Midwest.. The stay so far has been about 6 weeks.
Actually 2 questions;
1 - Is it customary to tip hotel maids?
2- How does one determine the tip?

We are trying to move the entire library of a very poor organization across several states to the new librarian.

Even using the cheap book postal rate it's going to be more expensive than we can manage.

We also thought of making a caravan of organization members to bring it to us, one section of the country at a time. But that would take a lot of doing, finding all the right members and convincing them to do all that driving. That's kind of the plan that we have currently settled on right now unless you can think of something better.

It's going to consist of about 2,000 magazines, maybe 3,000 books (even though some of the books may not be much thicker than magazines) and a few videos and some pamphlets.

Any ideas at all?

How are the roads, does it involve mountain drive, good hotels on the way, cares to be taken before and on the way. Is it a safe drive? How should it be planned. Which are the halting points on the way.
