#Travel Channel to air a 12-hour road trip live in its entirety - Newswire - The A. V. Club

Norway, a quiet, peaceful Scandinavian country that has decriminalized the possession of up to 15 grams of marijuana for “personal use,” is currently enamored with “Slow TV,” a phenomenon that began when government-owned TV channel NRK decided to broadcast a seven-hour and 40-minute train ride in its entirety. That broadcast pulled in 1.2 million viewers in a country of 5 million, and the next event, a live, 134-hour real-time cruise, was watched by 70 percent of Norwegians. Since then, NRK has produced massively popular TV events consisting of nothing but 14 hours of bird watching, 18 hours of salmon fishing, and something called National Knitting Evening, a show that was probably still more entertaining than Celebrity Game Night.

Now the Travel Channel is trying to bring the phenomenon to America with what it calls Slow Road Live. a 12-hour road trip that will ... Read more »

How I lost $5,000 (Five Thousand) with OneTravel - How I lost $5,000 (Five Thousand Dollars!!)

What a scam.

Beware of this TravelOne company!!

Don t touch them with a 10 foot pole!!

The worst company I ve ever dealt with.

I booked round trip flights with OneTravel and they offered me a trip cancellation policy which I purchased. A week before our intended departure my wife injured her back and was not able to travel. We have all the documentation to prove it.

I had previously booked my land portion with another travel company.

When I called OneTravel to inquire about settling the trip cancellation claim, they told me that all they cover is the air portion and not any other expenses not purchased from them. I was told that it is not really a trip cancellation policy but only a ... Read more »

#Travel Alaska - Alaska regional maps and places to go

As Alaska’s visitors cross the Arctic Circle, legend has it that many pilots give the plane a slight “bump” letting passengers know they’ve crossed the legendary circle. Alaska’s Arctic is home to the Inupiat Eskimos, many who still live a subsistence lifestyle and still preserve their history verbally from generation to generation. The Far North is filled with a rich history and natural wonders, from the gold rush days of yore to the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve.

Shaped by the staggering force of massive glaciers millions of years ago, Alaska’s Inside Passage boasts wildlife-filled fjords and lush island scenery — habitat for bald eagles, sea lions, porpoises and whales. Its mountains are carpeted with majestic forests. Inside Passage Alaska is home to Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian Indians whose history is reflected in towering totem poles. Russian settlers left a legacy of onion-domed churches gleaming ... Read more »

#Top 10 Road Trip Games.

It never, ever fails: Within 30 minutes of stuffing the car to its gills with luggage and people for a getaway, you're left wondering how you can get away from everyone's complaints of boredom. And to think, only hours more to go! Despite popular in-car entertainment such as DVD players, truth be told, not everyone's crossover is equipped to offer the convenience of penguins or Dora as a babysitter for the next 50, 100 or 200 miles.

That's why we've compiled a list of road trip games that don't require any tools, paper or accessories beyond the open road. We have suggestions for passengers at every age level, although each game can be tweaked accordingly. Even if your vehicle features the latest in onboard entertainment technology, playing a road trip game can be a fun way for you to tune in with your kids during your journey, instead of having them tune out on a movie or a video game.

Plan Your Mexico City Vacation

Mexico City is having a moment. All of a sudden, it seems, the largest city in the Americas has absolutely captivated international tastemakers, and gallons of ink have been spilled in glossy magazines extolling its historic architecture, booming gastronomy, and cutting-edge cultural scene. The capital is Mexico’s undisputed center of gravity, with the country’s best and brightest being

drawn to the sprawling megalopolis like the river to the sea. As a result, Mexico City’s name is now uttered in the same breath along with Paris, London, Tokyo, and New York. This electric energy has been here all along, of course, predating even the arrival of Cortés, so it’s about time Mexico City gets its due.

By and large, people have the wrong idea about Mexico City. To many the name alone summons two words: ... Read more »

#Microsoft closes Bing flight price predictor, bought the tech from Farecast in 2008

Microsoft is stopping its support for Windows XP and Office 2003 today but the company has also shut down a smaller but interesting service on its Bing Travel site as well. GeeKWire reports that the flight price prediction tool on that site is no longer available.

In a statement sent to the site. a Microsoft spokesperson said the decision to shut down the tool was a business decision to focus resources on areas where we feel there are the greatest opportunities to serve travel needs. What s really interesting about this move is that Microsoft bought the technology behind the tool when it acquired Farecast in 2008 for a rumored $115 million .

The idea behind the tool was that people could use it to see if a future airline flight they were interesting in buying a ticket for might go up or down in price in the near future. The original founder of Farecast, Oren Etzioni, told the site ... Read more »

#Last minute flights

Welcome to Cheapflights

Is it better to book early or get a late deal?

If you’re looking for a holiday that won’t break the bank, what’s the best way to save money?

The world of last-minute flights has changed a great deal since the introduction of low-cost carriers. Previously, you were able to find the best deals by booking last-minute flights from charter airlines as they sold off their spare seats in the days, hours and sometimes minutes before the flight took off. However, today you can also find a host of cheap airline tickets just as easily when booking early with low-cost airlines such as easyJet or Ryanair.

Whether you want to book your holiday in advance or at the last minute, there are plenty of cheap deals out there.

When can late deals work?

The best time to consider searching for last-minute deals is when, at a spur of the moment, you decide to take a break from the everyday stresses of life and ... Read more »

Challenge

Online travel agencies (OTAs) are travel companies that sell various tourism products directly to travelers on the booking websites with online travel agency software. While the share of online booking is constantly growing, OTAs become more concerned about the performance and seek the best travel software for their reservation systems.

Solution

In addition to specific technical requirements to meet, travel websites should have a user friendly interface and a number of features to attract demanding tourists and experienced web surfers. For example, many tourists are interested in booking all tourism products on one website, including flights, hotels, transfers, railway tickets, excursions, and more.

As one of the country s oldest cities, and the capital of Massachusetts, Boston s historical legacy is unmatched in the US. Strolling through a city founded in 1630 is like reading pages from a history book.

But beyond its revolutionary past, Boston is a thriving metropolis with plenty to offer visitors.

It feels a bit like London, with each district having its own charms and attractions; in fact, many consider Boston to be one of the most European-feeling cities in North America.

The opening of the Channel Tunnel in 1994 caused a major change in how we travel to France, making it possible to take the train there direct, or take a car on the Eurotunnel, or stick with the older methods of crossing by ferry or plane. Some people swim, but this is not such a practical idea when you have lots of luggage with you!

A number of options present themselves when you are planning how to travel to France. These days taking a plane from one of the UK's many regional airports is a cheap and easy way of reaching not only Paris, but the provinces as well. Flight operators are in heavy competition with each other to get bums on seats and prices can be as little as 15 for a single to Paris, Bordeaux or Nice airports.

From London and the south east of England, however, the Eurostar might be the best idea as it takes you from central London to central Paris in about 2.5 hours.

You don't have to go all the way to Dover to get the ferry either. Ports all al ... Read more »
