Wife is heading off to Toronto for 5 days in the middle of the month and she's trying to pack everything into a carry on bag plus a large over the shoulder bag. We'll see how that works out. Buy a better plane ticket and you don't pay baggage fees. Well, it'll take a much bigger luggage fee to come out ahead. I bought our two tickets in coach and paid a bit extra per seat to get the Emergency Exit row for each of us. These have sufficient legroom to get comfortable. The tickets were $640 each *less* than first class. My wife has a big rolling suitcase that if she packs carefully stays under 50 pounds and if she is a little over, the shoes end up in my smaller, lighter suitcase. So, what would we be missing in first class? Some crappy microwaved airline meal, as opposed to the sandwiches and snacks we'll buy in the airport to take on board. Airline travel is a big enough rip-off as it is. Why hand them even more $$$ to be inconvenienced with a ****ty means of travel. You might want to look into buying or renting an RV. You can take all the luggage and food you want while saving big bucks by not staying in crappy, bedbug ridden hotel rooms. :-) === Better yet, buy a big, fuel efficient, diesel trawler. Sleep in your own clean comfortable bed every night at the scenic waterfront location of your choice. (Presently in Essex, one of the crown jewels of the CT coast) Essex moved from the river to the coast? Damn, I didn't know that. Thanks for the tip! === (Presently in Essex, one of the crown jewels of coastal CT) |
