Know Your Passenger Rights!

I had no concept I could be compensated for a delay. I thought delays were just portion and parcel of taking the plane,  domestic and worldwide. Apparently we have rights as travelers, something worth contemplating when sitting for an overnight delay or last-minute cancellation. You could get a meals voucher! I would be interested to know for which spot (and, somewhat frightened, to know).

The Wall Street Journal has this helpful chart explaining the variations concerning the E.U., U.S. and Canada when it comes to ¨passenger rights.” I am all for compensation when it comes to outrageous delays. It helps to smooth the stress more than. Having said that, there seems to be a dilemma: if additional ¨rights¨ are put in area by the government, the poor multi-billion dollar airline companies will lose much more funds forcing them to make cutbacks or even drop out of company.

Is it just me? Whilst I locate legislating ¨compensation-rights¨ a small overboard, shouldn´t the corporation just do a greater occupation taking care of their consumers? I know that unexpected matters occur, but isn´t it the business of business, specially in the airline sector, to offer the very best support doable? What ever took place to organization integrity? Why am I asking so several queries?

CHALET SUZANNE: The forgotten gem of Lake Wales S haun and I spent a few weeks earlier this year visiting my parents in their snowbird home – Lake Wales, Florida (with stops in Nashville,   Louisville and Key West ). Lake Wales is a sleepy little town in central Florida about 1.5 hours south of Orlando – and the area (Polk County) is home to well over 100 retirement communities . My parents’ is called Saddlebag (great name) and our time there was full of cards, wine, bingo, The Price Is Right, and Let’s Make A Deal. Perfection . My parents have been going there for years and so far the highlight had been a drive to Spook Hill – an optical illusion that makes a car in neutral appear to travel uphill. Awe. Some. That all changed this year when on a drive to the local WinDixie my mom casually mentioned a little resort called  CHALET SUZANNE that was legendary in the area – first gaining popularity back in the 1930s and 40s. I wanted to see it so we decided to pull in and check it out...
