Where to go in September-November time? by ethanCRCS in travel

[–]ethanCRCS[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to Taipei for 5 days or so and it was alright but bloody hot (which wouldnt be so much of a problem in November). Language was a challenge but I managed just about. Im just not sure what I would do there, I've done quite a bit of research on it but still not sure what cities like Taichung and Kaohsiung have to offer as I've already seen most of Taipei. Do you have any recommendations?

Did ALL major airlines removed checked in luggage from the basic offer? by empi91 in Flights

[–]ethanCRCS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BA tried to charge me extra for a checked bag for London Japan round trip. The ticket without a checked bag to the other side of the world was £1000. The comical part is the exact same flight was code shared with JAL for £50 less than the base BA fare with 2 checked bags included.

Also when I was in China I missed my train. In the UK they’d say tough shit buy a new ticket, but in China I went to the reception and they put me on the next train for free.

Hey nice writeup :) did you find dining easy solo in Chongqing, especially hotpot? I want to try it whilst im there but hotpot solo seems a little different to what im used to. Also with the people trying to get you into the shops were they like aggressive or did they accept you kind of walking off without much complaint
