 Hello and a Warm Welcome! Today is This is your Airline Travelers' Guide! Welcome to air travel guide, best travel tips, best travel destinations guide. So sorry about my countrymen who lost their lives - and those who lost their loved ones because of the flashfloods caused by Whim or "Sendong". So far, hundreds are declared dead and hundreds more unaccounted for. Lack of morgues and embalming chemicals made the situation worse. Just imagine hundreds of bodies decomposing - and some were even thrown in the garbage dumps by the mortuaries due to lack of coffins and embalming fluids. That must be so terrible for their relatives -- some are still trying to find their loved ones!... Flying with pets? See my page here about Flying with Pets. You will be flying with them these holiday season... Christmas and New Year came and left. My birthday also came and went so quietly. I celebrated a milestone in my life without a big party. It has become a tradition for me. Quiet celebration, no big parties, just a little gathering with the closest people in my life. I am way past middle-age. Hopefully my age does not show on my face. I have been noticing some wrinkles, though, and I think they are from too much exposure to the cold wintry air... Break from consulting right now. Ooopss just got another consulting job...thankfully it is local so I don't have to fly. Also, I accepted a part time employment from a local enterprise. My present employment started with problems - as usual - with fingerprinting. I always have a problem when I am being fingerprinted; my prints are unreadable by the high-tech Biometric machines. It happened when I worked for an airline and was trying to obtain a Customs and Immigration stamp. It happened about a month ago as well, when I was obtaining another license.... Have you returned Christmas gifts that you received? Multi million dollar returns every year - would you believe that? I usually don't return anything that I received as a gift - unless it does not fit me. I always exchange it for the right size. I will miss the perks that Mystic Lake Casino, our local casino, had given me all these years. I enjoyed a 7 days-free hotel stay - all year long - with an option to upgrade to a suite. I had free tickets, invitations to extravagant dinner and show events. Visit them at Mystic Lake. It is an unusually warm for a winter evening tonight. Cold cold here in the Twin Cities !We received a dusting of snow yesterday. I love white snow. It is when it becomes yellow that I don't care for it. But, we did not have a white Christmas here in Minnesota. But New Mexico and Texas got some... Ahhh...Winter - but only the third snow here...the first was a snowstormMy FB group is still monitoring the Japan tsunami aftermath. Months after the disaster, survivors are still living in temporary shelters. See updates here.. Tsunami in Japan , this May, caused by an 8.9 magnitude earthquake in Sendai, Japan, causing an apocalyptic devastation. Japan got lots of help in cooling off the overheated reactor.

Here is a travel situation you don't want to be in: Horror Cruising Immigration UpdatesLast Winter, the Argentine government announced that it will impose up to $131.00 in immigration entry fees to travelers who are citizens of U.S., Australia and Canada. Read more.... January 2011 Passport - Pages Addition Adding pages to your passports is no longer free. The change to this started June, 2010. To add pages to your passport, the fee is now $80.00. You need to add pages if you just have from 2 - 4 pages left. Also see Brazil has abolished its "90-Day Use it or Lose It" Visa which only causes inconvenience to travelers and travel agents. USA's WHTI The U.S. government implemented the full requirements of the land and sea phase of the New Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI). This requires most U.S. citizens entering the United States at sea or land ports of entry to have a passport, a passport card (for land only), or other travel documents approved by the Department of Homeland Security. For more information , visit the agency's website here My Professional Career Website Check out my professional career - human resources consulting. Here it is www.EditaLaurel.com. If you do not get it the first time, please click it again. It is one of those limited browsing capabilities. There are pros and cons to a consulting job. I met some of my associates from my h.r. review class at the University of Minnesota. Travel for Education I was in China for almost the whole month of April. Great chance to experience China. I did this kind of travel many years ago in London, England when I studied international business law. The weather in London was miserable and gray for the whole duration of our educational experience. This time, it was so different. The weather cooperated. I met new friends, new experiences. If you are offered a similar trip, take advantage of it! Non-Rev Travel Non-revs - you know who you are :-) - be sure you have a round-trip paper ticket from Hongkong to Manila if you were born in the Philippines. I told you about my last trip to Asia. From Minneapolis to Narita, Tokyo,the flight (on a 747!) was fine. However, from Tokyo to Hongkong was so bumpy for 4 hours. ....I had the opportunity to take a Cathay Pacific flight from Hongkong to Manila on a 777. Nice smooth flight. Cathay had plenty of food for non-revs on this flight. Every time I flew Philippine Airlines, the flight attendant politely informs me that "non-revs" are not included in the meal. That was just fine with me since it is a very short flight of 1-1/2. So, Cathay Pacific's providing the non-revs food is a very nice gesture.  .
Rude Airline Employees?Rude airline employees can really ruin your trip - but don't let them! . Soon here.>>>. But try to be calm and collected, and write down (discreetly) the name of the rude airline employee that you encountered, with the time, date, and everything you can report. Report the incident when you come back from your trip. I know how upsetting it is..I have seen some people who missed their flight, and it was not their fault. Been there.. Try to get a hold of the employee's supervisor or manager if you have an emergency. Reason, but not argue. The managers are supposed to fix the problem. But - that does not happen all the time - sometimes supervisors or managers exacerbate the situation! Airline employees are there to serve the flying public, and that includes non-revs (other airline employees ) as well. On my more than 10 years working at an airline, I KNOW very well that these things happen - more incidents than I can report for all my other places of employment combined!... Flights could not land at Dallas Fort Worth International airport due to gusty winds. Gusty winds also near Hesperia, California, and of course, the post-tsunami problems in Japan...Minneapolis is warming up....I can see some grass on my yard now. For latest weather updates, go to Weather.com .I helped a family of five go to Europe using my pass. They were not able to return on the day they wanted to. The reasons: the usual travel business in Europe during the summer months; and an aircraft "incident", caused them to be stranded in Amsterdam. Regardless, I am glad that I was able to share my benefits with people I care about, creating some beautiful memories for them and their loved ones!.. I am out of travel pass until April next year!

This January 16, will be my mom's 83rd birthday. At 83, she is still working full time - and loving it! Thanks God for the travel benefits that allows me to travel to see my beloved mother.

Quoting Peter Greenberg when he tells you what countries or cities you want to avoid. Our version: "Stay Away"!© - by Edita N. Laurel, Web Editor. coming soon here.... Irregular Operations" in Airline Travel "Irregular Operations" in airlines pertain to any disruption in airline flight due to weather, mechanical delays, or other reasons that causes delays in normal and regular flight operations. This month we saw several irregular operations; weather in the East Coast, snowstorm in the Midwest. Airlines, and airline employees are very adaptable, and always ready to deal with this kind of operations. Airlines are always ready and prepared for the "irregular operations" that any kind of weather brings.

So, we waited, and it happened! Normally that would have scared me, but because of the forewarn, and the people cheering when
it happened -- it became so celebratory. The passengers were
cheering the captain. Then, the captain also announced that
we were going to fly close to Mt. Rainier. And he did! When he did that, it was so amazing. The view was so amazing! Unbelievable.
The plane went very close to the mountain. You could almost touch the mountain! So beautiful. What a treat! Unfortunately, my camera did not work at that special moment, but I am pretty sure that everyone's camera worked. Amazingly Beautiful! I have lots of pictures to post here; visit me in the next few days. Wonderful! wonderful! wonderful! What a celebratory goodbye to one of the greatest airplanes to fly people worldwide. This particular
Boeing 747-299 rolled out of Boeing factory in 1979 and retired
last Sunday, October 4, 2009. It landed at MSP's Lindbergh terminal at 324pm at Gate F10. More information coming on this wonderful wonderful event that honored this great aircraft.

We all love our pets. We want their air travel to be comfortable like ours. Check out our pages on pet travel. Also, find out how your pet can fly for free, and the airlines' policies on pets. What are the temperature restrictions? We have the resources for you. Here is an example: 
In the Midwest, Delta Airlines are allowing passengers to change their flights before and/or after the storm without penalty. That is something good to remember. So, if you are traveling and you know that there is going to be a weather problem, call the airlines. The earlier you call, the better. Thousands of other callers will be asking the same thing from the airlines. Usually, the airlines will book you on any of their flights to keep the revenues within the airline. In some occasions, though, when there are no more flights available in that same airline, they would call the other airlines with the same destinations and they would put you on the other airlines' flights, using what they call in the airline lingo, "Rule 240.40". Airlines have agreement with others that they can put passengers on their flights for a set percentage of fare. Most airlines are very good at this. I was disappointed, however, that American Airlines is denying all requests from other airlines (OAL's) even if there were available seats showing on their schedules. When AA representative was called, the other airline was told they do not want to reconfirm "too many sales" due to "irregular operations". Ref: Japan Tsunami irregular weather operations: Contact your airline. I read that all the airline companies are giving waiver to change the date of your flight without penalty.
