Re: How Stressful is Air Travel to You!
Hello Rushby channels A Christmas Carol into this Valentine's Day tale about one Liv Hetherington, a single wedding photographer whose distaste for February's signature holiday prompts a spectral intervention-of the Dickensian kind. Though her father, her roommate and her boss all disapprove of Liv's no-time-for-dating lifestyle, this Valentine's Day our heroine is determined to lay low-that is, until she's visited by the Marley-esque ghost of a deceased co-worker. (A true horror for single women, Rushby's ethereal guide is an old lady who devotes all her affection to cats.) Thereafter, Liv greets a trio of ghostly visitors with little skepticism as they show her Valentine's Days past, present and future. Because Rushby narrates the novel from Liv's point of view, she often repeats the salient plot points several times: that Liv was abandoned by her ex-boyfriend, that she's living in dreams of the past, that her new suitor is genuinely a nice guy. The book's humor is similarly over-explained. When Cupid calls a woman's skirt "materially challenged," Liv repeats his observation a few sentences later: "her skirt's not quite as long as it could be." It's as if the author doesn't trust her readers to get her jokes or her narrative arguments. (She also hammers home the Dickens connection with frequent, heavy-handed references to the tale.) The repetitions drag down the book's momentum and smother much of its humor, dulling what might have otherwise been a clever remake of a classic tale of transformation and self-discovery.

Hello friends
Flying with kids doesn't have to be stressful. If you are fidgeting and wondering whether or not your trip is worth it amidst bringing a child along the plane, you need not worry. With these tips, you are off to a stress-free plane trip with your children. Safety First To be able to keep guard of your kid, it is advisable to provide him a seat of his own, fully equipped with a child aviation restraint system. In this system and at around $75, your kid is protected from unnecessary bumps while on the plane. Also, if you are a nursing mother who plans to carry along your little child, then it is also recommended that you consult with the airline with regards the allowable amount of liquid you can bring. The crew in there will normally permit more than 3 ounces, provided that the fluid is a necessity (say for example, your child's milk). In determining the rules that apply to the setting, you are also guaranteed of no hassles while on your flight. More so, to avoid the hassles of having to locate your luggage after the flight, you must really see to it that you label your bags. In doing so, you won't have to scurry among the hundreds of luggage when at the first place you could have been staying with your child with ease and comfort.
Thanks for all friends

Best travel plan make your trip stress less and you enjoy every moment. You have to get knowledge about air fares package and accommodations package and select which one best offer. They are the most important for making your trip stress less.

Hello friends
Unfortunately, flying can be a turbulent experience - and that's before you even get into the air. With the crowds, the queues and security checks that take longer than ever before, airports can be stressful places, especially if you're not familiar with the way things work. The most important thing you can do to make your flying experience as pleasant as possible is to allow yourself plenty of time to get to the airport. This means arriving at least two hours before your plane is scheduled to leave or, if possible, even earlier.
Thanks for all friends

Re: How Stressful is Air Travel to You!
Hello
1. You make a mistake in booking your ticket. So you have just pressed "OK" and charged your credit card for that flight to Portland, only you realize you booked a flight to Portland, OR instead of Portland, ME. Or you booked a return flight at 12 midnight instead of 12 noon. Or you booked an international ticket in the name of "Harry" instead of "Henry" (which is your legal name on your passport). This happens more often than you might think, and while airlines are not as helpful as they might be in correcting simple and obvious errors.
What do you do? Ideally, carefully review the details of any booking before pressing "OK" or "SUBMIT". But if you forget to do that, then certainly read over your official receipt immediately after completing any booking. If you can catch an error immediately, the airline or travel agency will often process a correction without charge, sometimes up to 24 hours after booking. Others will make no changes without your paying a service fee (which might be significant).
2. You get to the airport late Airlines have historically had what is called a "flat tire rule" to help people who miss their flights but who have made an actual effort to get to the airport. That's not always the case anymore. If you arrive at the airport too late to check in for your flight or if you are delayed somewhere along the line, the airline may no longer rebook you on the next available flight, the very recipe for a stressful airport confrontation.
What do you do? Print out your boarding pass at home (when you can); this way you can proceed directly to security, even if your bag is too large to carry on. Sometimes the airline will gate-check a larger-than-allowed bag, and this extra time can allow you to make your flight. If you think that you will arrive at the airport too late to make your flight, it's wise to contact the airline in advance on your cell phone. This will help prove that you are making an effort to get to the airport on time.
