How do you play the "airplane" game where you try to figure out the destination?
Ok so there are a couple of my friends playing this "airplane" game??? Basically it starts out like this...: We are in Columbus but we have 2 hr flight delay to Richmond, then from Richmond we have 4hr lay-over to San Diego... Ok now where are we going to end up? Ok they wont tell me how to play, they say that i have to figure it out on my own :D. Also, it has something to do with the flight pattern they said. I tried drawing lines and maping it out. I thought it might be the first letter of the city or a picture but no luck there. Does anyone know how to play this game and could PLEASE tell me how to figure it out lol? This is a crazy game lol but i just wanna know how to play it!

Christmas Day is usually a light day for airlines as people should already be at their destinations. See what fares Southwest Airlines has out of Columbus. You may have to connect at Chicago Midway. However right now with airlines all cutting flights, you should buy your tickets as soon as possible. Travel advisers say if you do not book your ticket now, you run the risk of not being able to book a flight.

LAX-NYC-CMH and back... can I just use the LAX-NYC leg or will I get in trouble
LAX-NYC-CMH and back... can I just use the LAX-NYC leg or will I get in trouble?
TO fly to NYC from LA it is about $400. I found a $200 ticket LA-Columbus, Ohio that goes through JFK both ways. Ridiculous but could I take the flights between LA and JFK only?

That wouldn't work. You can get to JFK and get off the plane, that's fine. However, when you want to leave JFK and you check in with that airline, one of two things will happen: 1.) The airline has cancelled your return portion because you didn't show up in CMH to fly back to JFK. 2.) The agents at JFK will see what you are doing and they will charge you a change fee to do it. They won't be able to just check you in for the JFK-LAX leg as it's built into the computer as a connection and you must have already checked in at CMH. So they will charge you probably the $100 change fee. Now if that's still less than your direct flights, then you can try it, but I've bust many customers before attempting to do such a thing. My advice would be to just buy the direct trip and save yourself the hassle.

If you're going to give it a shot, you risk the airline cancelling/taking away your frequent flyer miles, too. I mean, if you don't have any, then go crazy... but I'm not sure it's worth it. Your name will be in their system as a CHEATER. Again, I'm not too worried about losing my friendship with an airline, but hey...
3 :
sure, but they will cancel the return part of your ticket, so you wouldn't be any better off
4 :
Gal, you have to use all the legs on your ticket for the fare. If you do not fly the JFK-CMH leg, the airline will cancel your reservation for the return trip. And the airline would be within its rights to charge your credit card for any additional fare for the one-way trip, if applicable. Regards, Dan

I have an idea for a story but it isn't completely formed yet. I wrote a bit just to mess around.?
I'm not sure if I should try some more or not. I've only ever had one story that I actually stuck with before and I'm still working on it, but this is just another idea. This bit doesn't give you an idea of what it's about but please tell me what you think anyways. Thanks. HERE IS: July 25, 2011, Ms. Garza handed me a small black book that looked like it could be about a hundred years old and I took it wearily. I don’t like Crazy Garcia at all. “Your new foster parent wants you to write in this. Don’t ask me why.†Her blubbery voice crackled in boredom. “Foster parent?†Parent. As in only one? I thought. “I said, don’t ask me questions kid.†She snapped. “Sorry.†I mumbled in reflex. “C’mon.†Hissed the old lady. As fat as she was her face still looked hollow and gaunt as she waddled out the door, leaving me to drag my suitcase, pillow, and giant duffle bag all in one. Everything I owned. Crazy Garcia tapped her foot impatiently as I dragged my belongings across the gravelly parking lot to her pink ’67 Cadillac. She couldn’t wait to get rid of me. Well I can’t wait to get rid of you either, you witch, I thought. I would’ve said it out loud, but I needed the ride. Forty-five minutes later the Cadillac’s engine was stalling outside Salt Lake City International Airport. “Here†Crazy Garcia said and shoved a ticket into my already full hands. “Wha--- what?†I stuttered. “No. No, you can’t leave me here!†“Your flight is the 1:45 to Columbus, Ohio.†“Ohio!†I gulped. “Go on.†She said, bored by my worried charade. “Hold on….†I was really starting to panic now. “I’ve never been to an airport in my life. I’ve never been on a plane, ever. Please! I’m terrified of flying.†Crazy Garza only smirked as she put the gear in reverse. “See you kid.†“Please don’t leave me!†Was I really begging Crazy Garcia not to go away? “I’ve got things to do…†Was the last I heard from her as her car flew away from the curb. I stood there shaking for a good ten minutes, my things scattered around me. “What the hell†was all I could think. Was I even going to be adopted or had that just been a ploy to get rid of me? People milled around me busily, luggage in tow. Some stood by the doors smoking that last puff of cigarette. I gulped the smoky air, anxiously. It was 12:15. I couldn’t be sure, but I don’t think that gave me a whole lot a time. I gathered my things and stepped through the sliding doors. I was greeted by about a million more people swarming around in bunches. It was the first time I even had a chance to discover I was claustrophobic. I went to the closet desk were a bored looking lady with tired eyes was sitting, pulling at her frizzy hair. “Excuse me,†I mumbled my voice was pathetically small. “Could you tell me where I need to go to get to this flight?†“Terminal C, gate 133, take a left down there and follow the sign.†Her voice was nasally, just like Crazy Garcia’s and she talked to me like I was stupid. Where kids even allowed on flights by themselves? Great another thing to worry about, I thought as I slipped into a line where people were taking off their shoes and putting their bags in gray containers. Everyone looked bored and tired like they had done it a thousand times.

Since this is my type of story, I think it has loads of potential to be a great story. It may need some adjusting here and there, using a little more detail - I said a little - and more descriptive vocabulary, but other than that, it's a great, brilliant, well thought out start to a story. Hope to see it on the shelf one day! By the way, what's the main character's name that is telling the story.

I like it, but it could use a little tweaking. When it first started, I was kind of confused on what these people were doing, and I don't remember you mentioning the young girls name. You did eventually explain what was happening, but I just felt the beginning was a little scattered. Oh and I picked up that you said "Crazy Garza" a lot. I understand she's a person, but it just sounded a little over said; you could of just said "she" and I would have understood who you were talking about. Other than that it sounds interesting. :)
4 :
Really good, I just have a few things to point out. Um, you write "Crazy Garcia" and "Crazy Garza" for just one character. Read it over, you'll see. And you say "Crazy" too many times, you might just want to call her "Garcia" or "Garza", and put in the "Crazy" every once in a while. I'd reccommend you only call her "Crazy" in two sentences: "I don’t like Crazy Garcia at all." and "Was I really begging Crazy Garcia not to go away?". Anyway, you really have something good here! Keep up the good work!

Traveling to the Philippines. I need help, please
Traveling to the Philippines. I need help, please?
If it isn't too much trouble, I was wondering if someone could help me with some info to do with traveling over seas. I've never flown before; it scares me. For a first time flier, I was wondering what I needed to fly to the Philippines? I'm a novice when it comes to flier--I don't know anything. I live in Columbus, Ohio, and I'm not sure if the nearest Airport has flights to Cainta, Rizal. So here is my first question. Where do I call to get a flight to Cainta, Rizal, Philippines? From Columbus, Ohio. Or the nearest airport? Second, and third question: Am I able to get a passport at the airport? If not, then where am I able to get one? How long does it take for me to be able to get it? One day, one week? Same day? Fourth question: Is there an online list of things I can not bring onto an airplane? I do not want to be held up anywhere, or have to get rid of anything I can leave at home. Thank you for your help. I appreciate your time, I really do. If there is any more information I should know about, please add it. Thank you very, very much.

Your trip to the Philippines.....check with a travel agency & web sites just to get ideas concerning your flight schedule.You can always pick & choose later.As far as your passport is concerned,go to your local or the main branch post office where you live & get all the info you need and apply.My passport only took about 3 weeks to arrive,im not very far from Columbus.By the way,a passport is all you will need for the Philippines up to a 21 day visit & anything over that you will need a visa.(what you can bring onto a flight) just go to any airline web site & you will have all the info your in need of.Hope this can get you started.Good luck & enjoy the Philippines......Mabuhay !

It is just land trip going to Cainta, Rizal. If it is your first time in the Philippines, I suggest you ask your friend to meet you at the airport. That should be most convenient. You process your passport from your home country. Airport travel tips. http://www.travel-wise.com/tw-flight-guide/airport-faq/dos-donts.aspx Carry On Luggage Knowledge Base http://www.travelweight.com/knowledgebase/browse/9/carryonluggage.html Finally, try to google your airport security guidelines to learn exactly what you can and may not take with you when you fly. Hope this helps. /rhythm

Here is a guide in applying for you passport. Just go to this link http://travel.state.gov/passport/get/first/first_830.html If you will be staying in the Philippines not more than 21 days, there is no need for a visa. In getting to the Philippines you need to have a VISA. You have to process it in a Philippine embassy. For guide, just go to this link for http://www.gov.ph/faqs/visa.asp You may want a travel agency to get to the Philippines. You can search it through google for a traveling agency. There are many, you can choose one. Some agencies offer services in giving you how to do things. You can have a flight to Manila then take a taxi to get to Cainta, Rizal. If you are meeting someone in the Philippines you may ask her to pick you up in the airport so that you won't be taken advantage by some taxi drivers. Von Voyage!

Ok, starting with the flight... That is nothing to be scared of, and you will probably enjoy it. On the long haul, get an isle seat because you don't want to be crawling across anybody with somebody else's seat in their face just to get to the toilet. ~~~ you will pick up your plane in Columbus, and fly to Seattle, LA, or other connecting city. There you will transfer to another plane (probably a 747 or such), and take it to Manila probably with an intermediate stop like Tokyo or Taipei. Go to a travel agency, and they can arrange the whole itinerary including the airlines to your liking. Passport... I don't know if it still works that way, but I went to the county courthouse and got the application from the county clerk, filled it out, and paid $60 (but that was a long time ago). The processing took about 6 weeks. You don't need a visa if you stay 21 days or less. For more than that, most Philippine travel agencies will be glad to process you a 2 month visa. When you get to Manila (south side of the city), it's best to take a cab to a bus station (I hope somebody here can help you with the bus company and the stops) and take the bus. Otherwise you'll really get ripped off. Finally, do what I do. put your shaving kit (with all the bottles and tubes) except for an electric shaver if you have one, into your check-in bag. Same for liquids and such. My carry-on has my passport, IDs maybe a map, and 1 set of clothes including underwear just in case the big bag winds up in Tibet. (if that happens, the airline will deliver to your door). ~~~ Some more info: the wall sockets may look the same, but will fry whatever you plug in, unless you have 120-240VAC charger, or get yourself a transformer HERE (they're heavy) at any hardware store.

Your trip to the Philippines.....check with a travel agency & web sites just to get ideas concerning your flight schedule.You can always pick & choose later.As far as your passport is concerned,go to your local or the main branch post office where you live & get all the info you need and apply.My passport only took about 3 weeks to arrive,im not very far from Columbus.By the way,a passport is all you will need for the Philippines up to a 21 day visit & anything over that you will need a visa.(what you can bring onto a flight) just go to any airline web site & you will have all the info your in need of.Hope this can get you started.Good luck & enjoy the Philippines......Mabuhay !

It is just land trip going to Cainta, Rizal. If it is your first time in the Philippines, I suggest you ask your friend to meet you at the airport. That should be most convenient. You process your passport from your home country.

Hope this helps. /rhythm

Ok, starting with the flight... That is nothing to be scared of, and you will probably enjoy it. On the long haul, get an isle seat because you don't want to be crawling across anybody with somebody else's seat in their face just to get to the toilet. ~~~ you will pick up your plane in Columbus, and fly to Seattle, LA, or other connecting city. There you will transfer to another plane (probably a 747 or such), and take it to Manila probably with an intermediate stop like Tokyo or Taipei. Go to a travel agency, and they can arrange the whole itinerary including the airlines to your liking. Passport... I don't know if it still works that way, but I went to the county courthouse and got the application from the county clerk, filled it out, and paid $60 (but that was a long time ago). The processing took about 6 weeks. You don't need a visa if you stay 21 days or less. For more than that, most Philippine travel agencies will be glad to process you a 2 month visa. When you get to Manila (south side of the city), it's best to take a cab to a bus station (I hope somebody here can help you with the bus company and the stops) and take the bus. Otherwise you'll really get ripped off. Finally, do what I do. put your shaving kit (with all the bottles and tubes) except for an electric shaver if you have one, into your check-in bag. Same for liquids and such. My carry-on has my passport, IDs maybe a map, and 1 set of clothes including underwear just in case the big bag winds up in Tibet. (if that happens, the airline will deliver to your door). ~~~ Some more info: the wall sockets may look the same, but will fry whatever you plug in, unless you have 120-240VAC charger, or get yourself a transformer HERE (they're heavy) at any hardware store.
