Don’t have any fancy dinners booked. They should work everywhere I believe. We will be staying with family for part of the trip. They generally take shoes off at the door, so no problem there. Staying in hotels most of the trip.
Yes, they are pretty comfortable.
I hate taking a second pair of shoes so avoid doing so if at all possible.
I rarely being more than one pair of shoes when traveling. I pretty much only do it for dance events or camping, where i might have to do a lot of walking in wet conditions.
I’m about to board my first ever flight on Air Canada (“Air Canada Express” actually)
I was surprised to be asked to put my carry-ons in the sizer when I went to the counter to have my passport checked. I don’t think I’ve ever seen everyone being ordered to size their bags before.
In fairness, this flight is on a regional jet with infamously small luggage bins. On other airlines I would expect to hand large bags over at the door, and get them back at the door on landing.
Here, they’re forcing every bag that is oversized to be checked.
Fortunately, for this quick trip, I went with small luggage.
I did go with only one pair of shoes on my recent trip. It worked out even better than I expected. I thought I would only want to wear that pair and I was right, but the unexpected benefit was a reduction in foot pain.
For some undiagnosed reason, I’ve been having periodic minor pain in my left foot. I should probably go to either a podiatrist or an orthotics specialist. The pair of shoes I brought has a stiffer mid shank than most, which apparently helps my foot issue. I’m going to wear that pair and another one with a similar mid-shank more frequently to see if the pain goes completely away.
That’s so Prague-matic, I’ll be sure to Czech it out.
ETA: aaaaand now this lively retort makes no sense!
i am looking at a couple of delta amex options. main difference seems to be one has access to delta sky lounge at airports while other does not. Difference is like $300 a year.
I don’t travel that much. and when I do it is 80% for work and so buying food and drink doesn’t matter to me personally. also, I don’t spend that much idle time in the airport.
so is is possibly worth the $300 a year difference in annual fee?
Most of the lounges aren’t that great. Nicer than not being in the lounge, but… meh.
A few though, like in Atlanta, have showers, which could be nice if you’ve got a long layover after 24+ hours of traveling. That’s more relevant if you’re traveling to obscure international destinations with regularity.
