I just use web checkin for my flight tomorrow. After that I should have printed my boarding pass. However, I realised that this is not possible. So what can I do now? I have already checked in, but no boarding pass. Is there any way to print that again at the airport? Or is it enough if I have my...
well that's what I meant by the thermal stuff, and there's a Maori Village. And the gondola I guess, with a luge and stuff. But it's not a hugely-happening town really (56000 people).
Oh, @RoflcoptrException - on the skytrain at Broadway-City Hall, AND at Marine Drive, you can check in on machines there. I suspect it might be able to print it out there, although if you've already checked in, I'm not sure? I've not actually used them.
however most airlines will re-print them for you, except for RyanAir who will charge you 40 pounds to do so
although there's been a recent EU ruling that it's the airlines' responsibility to provide passengers with boarding passes, and so in Spain at least, RyanAir can't charge you like that any more, and it should spread elsewhere too
that's why i love travel - flight delayed due to an emergency landing of another plane (UA flight lost an engine out of Newark). Hertz booking system screwed up my drivers license. Hilton system screwed up my whole booking.
dammit.. someone finally asked the hidden city question i've been waiting for, and it's 2am in the morning so i cant answer now
i was going to ask a question about how to reset your internet banking password when you're overseas with no good telephone or internet phone connections ... but i finally solved it
You could ask the question and then self answer it. Now if it happens to me, I know that your know, but I can't find it in our favorite travel problem solver ;)
i hitchhiked to the larger town 10km away in the hope they would have more mobile phone towers so all the lines wouldn't be saturated thus allowing a better chance of a connection... and a chance of a place further from loud music and loud crowds
i think i would have to break the banking rules by telling the person my secret code word
but i asked a different question i've been thinking about:
Those who've never been here before might not expect it, but there's something of a Korean presence on the Black Sea Coast within 10km of the Bulgarian border.
The main entity is Daewoo Mangalia Heavy Industries. Basically one of Korea's biggest corporations is has a huge shipyard here with Kore...
ahh the joy of visiting holiday destinations - hotels are cheaper during the week than they are on the weekend, rather than the other way around as normal
@AndrewGrimm: yes i did know about koreans in central asia - nowadays there are also central asians in korea. i hitchhiked with some kyrgyz there last year (-:
now i've thought up some freighter travel questions ...
if i did it's not showing me which one and it's resetting all the other fields
"finicky" is such a genteel word. i prefer "shit"

@markmayo Regarding the downvote compaign. For some weird reason I have touched a nerve with a travel.se member who disagree with my answers. He started to acuse me of downvoting on personal grounds, I was not aware of any downvoting, so I downvoted just to illustrate that it hasn't been me. Not a nice solution, but then I felt I needed to do something to stop the rude discourse. Now I choose to ignore it since it does not seems to help.
yeah, escalating the downvoting probably doesn't help :) Best to ignore. If there are any actual comments of a personal insult nature directed at you, please do feel free to flag them. It's definitely preferable for everyone to stick to voting and commenting on the questions/answers' merits themselves, rather than personally - that's what the chat room's for (eg mocking the Australians about the rugby, just realised I hadn't brought that up yet)
it also helps the other person to air it out in here, as others may then be able to help convince them that you're not downvoting on personal grounds (some people do see conspiracies everywhere), or he might come in and reveal there's an entirely different reason he's mad.
@Doc - yeah man :) And SA beat Argentina. Both my teams won this weekend :D
avherald.com is only scary if you don't consider how many flights there are globally every day
so, consider ZQN, on a day when no flights had landed there due to snow/ice (biggest snow in Queenstown itself in like 10 years). we were probably not going to land there but go elsewhere and be bussed, but at the last moment they decided we would go to ZQN after all
on landing, maybe a few hunderd feet off the ground, we get an updraft and the left side of the plane bumps up. i watched the runway threshold go under us and thought "hmm.. we're still pretty high"
