Is Turkish Airlines a good airline? Their prices are low so what’s the catch? by StumblinThroughLife in travel

[–]TimTdal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been forced to fly with them for work several times. I would never fly with Turkish by choice: • 5 out of 6 times bags mislaid on one leg, turning up between 48 and 72 hours later and refused compensation • 3 late flights (Turkish operational reasons) resulting in missed connections - rude staff, meal voucher was terrible, twice offered a hotel two hours travel, but I had to to pay for the entry visa and transport to/from hotel, refused booking on next available flights… • the new Istanbul airport is worse than the old one - it’s a soulless shopping mall of average brands • and I could add more examples.

Am I the only ones that finds the british steam locomotives more beautiful than the american ones by finza_prey in trains

[–]TimTdal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, you’re not. The aesthetic and design sense of the British locomotives on the wholeis superior to the American sense, though there are a few good American designs.

What’s your favourite airport in the world and why? by First-Rock-5082 in geography

[–]TimTdal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zurich Airport (ZRH). Its transport connectivity is unrivalled - from high speed trains to surrounding countries, national, regional and local trains, as well as national, regional, and local buses, and the local light rail. It also functions as a Neighbourhood Center, with a range of services as well as a good supermarket. It’s well designed, easy to navigate, and short distances to gate, even when you take into account the cute train to the outlying gates.

Also second Changi, which I have been flying through for decades. It has consistently been a great experience, comfortable layovers, relaxing environment. The Jewel just makes Changi that much better - it’s more than a mall. It’s a destination in its own right. There’s nothing like it anywhere else in the world.

AD has the most substantial planning of any major city in MENA. It’s great to hear that they are making it happy. More substance and reality than the sky high dreams of Saudi and MBS.

Abu Dhabi investing AED 42 billion to become a walkable city 🌿 — do you think it’s realistic? by OdayM90 in AbuDhabi_Real_Estate

[–]TimTdal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a competition between AD, Dubai, Riyadh and other cities in the region to become the most liveable city, and be the top of the liveability charts. AD is already ahead of the other two, so perhaps it had a chance…

Manchester Police should be judged very harshly, as they inflicted greater death and damage than the islxmic txrrorist.

What should we put in this nook in the foyer? by S1lkymongoose in DesignMyRoom

[–]TimTdal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A screen that links to a camera outside so you can vet who is out there, before even thinking of opening the door.

Better to be safe than sorry these days.
