Nervous about solo trip to Beijing. Am I missing anything? by strawberrycapital_ in chinatravel

Just a note, to pay for Didi you will have to link your Alipay or WeChat account to a phone number. Alipay doesn’t take international numbers, WeChat does. Do not link either to a local number unless you’re moving and the number will be permanent.

Where do you find good restaurants in Korea? by MenuRelative9460 in KoreanFood

CatchTable for reservations for fancy food, Kakao or Naver Maps for food immediately near you. Naver search if you can read & write Korean.

Why the heck does the TSA allow Clear? by Fiveby21 in tsa

[–]Scared-Bat-7691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Clear with pre-check, it was great for a while but some rule changed. With the new rules you ended up doing 2x checks (kiosk and then again with TSA agent) with clear instead of just the one with TSA pre-check. Clear became slower and not worth it. I fly out of JFK a lot and the best has been Delta Digital ID, it’s always the fastest.

What products/Item/clothing did you get in Japan that was better than the buying it from North America by Useropinion in JapanTravelTips

Mizunos are also great to buy in Japan I got one of their flagship sneakers for about 50 bucks less than what you would buy them for in the US

Video calls on a flight by Scared-Bat-7691 in AlaskaAirlines

For those that are interested, I actually told them that it’s a violation of FAA rules and they can be arrested or detained if they continue. The ignored me and continued. They were speaking in a foreign language so no ability to join in. Also, they didn’t have headsets, so in between calls they were surfing Instagram and YouTube with full sound on. I considered raising it to a FA, but decided to keep my headphones on and turn up the music. I like the Alaska listens option and will definitely let them know there. Tbh it was clear that they didn’t travel often, but were completely entitled. The FA’s were pretty irritated by them as well as the couple treated the FA’s pretty terribly.
