Writer sees reinvention in Seattle almost 40 years later
SEATTLE, Wash. — For a young writer in 1976, Seattle was a cheap date. Our national memory of the exciting space-age world’s fair in 1962, called the Century 21 Exposition with its soaring Space Needle, still summoned hope of American progress. But, in 1976, my ability as a journalist to forecast this city’s future beyond that Bicentennial Year was, quite frankly, lousy.
Kerry Decker TV Show: A Look at World’s Fairs (1982)

LOOKING FOR CHEAP AIR FAIRS?

go to www.sidestep.com, this is by far THE BEST travel site out there. Sidestep searches multiple travel sites at once (orbitz, travelocity, priceline, onetravel, etc.) You can choose one way or roundtrip, pick a preferred airline, categorize by price, stops, departure, etc, and you can also book hotel packages. You can also pick flexible airports so that you can search nearby cities for better deals. Before you book a flight, I would also recommend checking out what type of airplane and what airline you would be on, and go to www.seatguru.com to find the best seats, entertainment features, etc.

Sponsorship for overseas volunteer work?

I live in Australia and next year I want to take part in a gapbreak program where i am placed in Kenya to do volunteer work, such as teaching english and building schools, however it is quite expensive and I was wondering if i could apply for sponsorship, and if i could, where? and if any airlines would help me out with a ticket, because i also have to pay for airfares.

You can ask whomever you want to sponsor you, but the general idea is that you do the work for free and bear the cost.

Flights to Africa – Top Ways to Save on Flights to Morocco, Egypt, South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania

Here are some ways to find the best prices on flights to Africa:

Look At Flying Through Countries With Historic Links To Africa
If you are flying via or even from Europe, remember that most European countries that once had colonies in Africa still have fairly close ties to those new countries. As a result, they may still have good airline connections from their capitals or leading business cities to these former colonies.

Here are some examples:

  • Germany Frankfurt – Namibia, Tanzania
  • Netherlands Amsterdam – South Africa
  • Italy Rome – Ethiopia
  • Portugal Lisbon – Angola, Mozambique

In brief, if you are looking for a flight to a francophone West African country, use Paris as your hub. For East and Southern Africa most flights will go in and out of London.

Even If You Live in a City Like London, Look at Traveling Through Another Destination To Get A Cheaper Flight To Africa
Even if you live in London and there are plenty of flights to South Africa for you to choose from, you should still take a look at traveling through other countries. In this case, if you live in London and want to fly to Johannesburg take a look flying through Amsterdam on KLM, or Paris on Air France. For Cape Town you can look at flying from London to Frankfurt to Cape Town on Lufthansa. Because you will have to stop over you may well pay a lot less than if you were to fly nonstop or direct.

Don’t Ignore Airline Consolidators To Find Cheap Tickets To Africa
Finding cheap flights to Africa is a lot easier if you can search online for your flights.  But you  can really save a lot of money if you use a search engine that incorporates airline consolidator airfares as well as airfares published by the airlines. Airline consolidators, especially on high priced African flights, can save you up to 70% on published airfares.

Follow these tips and you should be able to find cheap flights to anywhere in Africa you choose from South Africa to Egypt to Ghana to Kenya!

One can get good deals at vacation rental homes. These are actually homes offered by their owners for vacations.

When Will Taxpayers Say

We know from having heard numerous stories reported again and again on TV and in newspapers over the years about “pork barrel” spending, that our government is not necessarily judicious in watching the purse strings (to say the least). However, I heard an expose reported by ABC news in Phoenix earlier this week that made my blood pressure rise.

The headline: “Social Security spends $700,000 on Phoenix conference.”

This investigative report was broken by Channel ABC 15 News in Phoenix (snipurl.com/ng2qk) and reported to the Social Security Administration and members of Congress, who are now conducting additional investigations. Here’s the story’s highlights:

675 Social Security managers attended a “motivational management” conference at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, a high-end Phoenix area resort last week that cost $700,000. The conference’s costs included airfare, hotel entertainment, dancers, motivational speakers, and food. The Social Security Administration provided ABC 15 with a list of courses offered at the conference, which included, “Techniques to Empower You,” Mentoring the Generations,” and “Emotional Intelligence.”

A spokesperson from the SSA’s regional office said the conference was essential, that teleconferencing was not an option, and that all 675 managers needed to meet in person. They did put the conference out to bid, and rooms for the conference were booked at $85 per night, versus the rack rate of $400 for a room during the prime tourist season. However, as you might note, it is not prime tourist season in Phoenix in July…..

The SSA omitted from their report to ABC 15 that the conference also included an after-hours casino trip, family members staying at the resort, or a dance that was observed by the reporters.

“This was a training conference. The location was selected through the government’s competitive bidding process. The facility that was selected was the lowest bidder, and we paid well-below the prescribed government rate.” Leslie Walker, Regional Communications Director, SSA.

By the way, Social Security trustees said in May that the program will begin paying out more in benefits than it collects in taxes in 2016, and the program’s trust fund will be depleted by 2037. 2016 is little more than six years away from now….

This story offends on so many levels. Let me count just a few of the the ways:

-They’re spending my money (and yours) on unnecessary perks and travel when they don’t have the funds. Repeat: they don’t have the money! When was the last time your company sent you to the Biltmore for a few days of motivational training?

- Why is there a different standard for the public sector versus the private sector? Since when it is acceptable to “do as I say, but not as I do?”

- Haven’t they heard about holding webinars and using GotoMeeting.com as an alternative to personal travel?

- Corporations and the banking industry in particular have been vilified by the Obama Administration, who promised during campaigns to cut waste in the government. In fairness, I do recall that Obama announced a 10% cut in the budgets of his director reports in February or March, which resulted in a couple hundred million saved. Yes, we need MUCH more of this kind of action. Every new major legislative proposal is presented as a cost saving initiative, yet how many trillions in debt are we now with no apparent end in sight for additional new Federal programs?

- How can these agencies continue to spend money they don’t have? Contrary to what Joe Biden (always interesting) said this week in a speech to the AARP,(snipurl.com/oay25) everyone knows you STOP spending when you go bankrupt; you don’t spend MORE!

- Training & developing their managers is OK and economically justifiable for a major benefit program that has no assets that all of us have paid into for many, many years.

- What’s happened to fiduciary responsibility in the government? The SEC would throw the SSA execs in jail if it were a private sector agency, based upon the way it’s been managed. Essentially it’s a Ponzi scheme. There are no assets because the government has robbed Peter to pay Paul.

- What about the people who’ve paid into FICA for decades, counted on receiving retirement benefits from the SSA, are legitimately disabled, and/or worked in lower level jobs so they didn’t save enough money for retirement? Particularly after the financial “repression” we’ve experienced resulting in drastically reduced 401K balances and housing values, many “would-be retirees” are delaying retirement.

The hypocrisy and arrogance of the public sector and our politicians for both parties is just unbelievable to me!! We need leaders who are tough enough to take on the challenge of addressing the fact that the SSA is on the verge of bankruptcy and will fix it so it can be restored to serve its original purpose. It’s been pillaged & plunged for many years, and now we’re seeing the results of that greed and failure to control spending.

Several months ago, I wrote about Wells Fargo (snipurl.com/o95ov) buckling to public pressure and canceling their annual employee recognition event scheduled to be held in Las Vegas. They had the money set aside in their budget to pay for this event yet canceled it due to public pressure for TARP recipients regarding compensation practices.

What’s good for the goose isn’t good for the gander anymore. I really worry about our future. California’s on the verge of going bankrupt with its recently downgraded credit rating just above junk bond status as our legislators fail to agree on viable budget solutions. Is our nation also at risk for going bankrupt a few years hence? Is the SSA situation simply a foreshadowing of bigger issues to come? How do we get out of this mess?

I’m going on vacation for a long weekend…..and hope to be more positive when I return!

Best Travel Store?

I came across the website of Best Travel Store at http://www.bt-store.com and I was just wondering if this website is legitimate or a scam. I know that this company is based in Monrovia, CA. I am looking to travel to the Philippines this coming summer and I was wondering if any of you have had and can tell any experience with this agency, good or bad, positive and negative. And do they really have cheap airfares? because when I looked at some samples and destinations from U.S. cities to Manila, Philippines some of the prices were lower than $600. Can anyone share their experiences with the agency?

What is the Cheapest way to get to Kauai?

Two of my friends and I want to go to Kauai for Spring break which is the last week of March and we already have a place to stay and a car but airfare is really high. We are all students and are on a budget so we would only like to spend around $600 if at all possible round trip but the best we can find is $735. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on where to look. We are in Denver trying to get to Kauai. Thank you!

Aloha airline offers $119 from San Diego to Kauai( Lihue), you can find $69 ticket from Denver to San Diego from southwest airlines, so total would be $480 round trip( including fee, tax) for 2 tickets.

Honeymoon in Thailand

If you are looking for the sweetest, the most romantic, the most exotic and exciting honeymoon place on earth with inexpensive deals, welcome to Thailand! Once you’ve arrived, you will know that heaven on earth is real. The most romantic, tropical paradise in the world is waiting for you.Imagine that you and your soulmate are walking along the golden beach at dusk. You relax for a moment, listening to the orchestra of the whispering sea, drink a cool mai tai on the sandy beach, and the echoes of reverberate in your head.

Honeymoon in Thailand

Thailand If you want something that is more of an adventure then consider Thailand. Again, you get beautiful beaches, but with an exotic flair. Thailand is very affordable with budget friendly resorts and spectacular deals on airfare.There is no where quite like Thailand in January and the resort makes the perfect destination for a honeymoon holiday. The beaches of Phuket with their fine golden sand are the perfect place to get away from everything and the resort has plenty of attractions for you and your new husband to visit. One of the most romantic excursions that you can partake in is a romantic elephant trek through the Thai jungle, where you can watch the locals tapping the sap from the giant rubber trees. The Phang Nga Jungle Trek is one of the countries’ best places to do this, and whilst here you can meet the friendly baby elephants in their daily show, which includes dancing and harmonica playing. No luxury honeymoon in Thailand would be complete without a traditional Thai massage and although these are available from a plethora of people on Karon Beach, indulge in a massage at your luxury hotel. The Evason Phuket Resort and Spa is well renowned for its treatments.

Thailand. This was a big part of our honeymoon in Southeast Asia. It is one of the most beautiful countries, with high mountain passes in the north, and breathtaking beaches in the south. If you, like many newlyweds, are running on a shoestring budget, Thailand offers more value than most; in fact, budget conscious couples can live on thirty to forty dollars a day if they travel slowly. My wife and I arrived in Bangkok, and journeyed south to Koh Samui for the diving. After three weeks of snorkeling, diving, and watching some truly incredible sunsets, we headed north to Chiang Mai, then off to spend the next ten days trekking in the mountains. The budget for your honeymoon should the first thing that you should set. A wedding is never a cheap affair. Couples end up spending quite a bit on it. Therefore, they need to set a budget to ensure that they have the perfect start to their married life. If you are on a tight budget, you will have to choose your honeymoon destination with care.

Once you have the budget set, it is time to sit down and list all the possible destinations that you would like to spend your honeymoon in. Of course, it is imperative that you are realistic about your destination choices as they should be within your reach. After that, it is time to sit down and figure out what are the activities you would like to undertake during the honeymoon. You may want to experience history, so Peru could be a good choice for this. If you to experience culture, then Japan is perfect. If you want something romantic and relaxing, then think about spending your honeymoon in Thailand or Bali. You can relax on the beautiful beaches all day long!

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand and is a good tourist destination, it is quite different from east and north based cities. Bangkok is world famous for providing the variety from museum to nightlife to the visitors. It can be very painful while trying to get around Bangkok. Kra Isthmus is famous for their some of the most filmed beaches in the world. Phuket trip is one of the smaller and less commercialized trips with most famous resort island. For younger travelers Ko Pha Ngan is famous for its regular moon festivals on the sparkling shores.

Travel to Thailand is very easy going and welcoming experience. Everything is available from simple to luxurious at fair price. There is unbeatable combination of hi-tech, rein forested, beaches and metropolitan city. Weather of Thailand is always sunny and the average temperature is around 25-30 degree Celsius. For more comfortable vacation to Thailand, you must keep travel guide with you for all the tourist information, travel agencies and travel destinations for your budget travel.

In any given business, it’s very easy to get trapped into all kinds of things that have nothing to do with making money. Money isn’t everything, but in a business, the money is pretty important.
cheap airfare at airfare-now.com

why i bought a flight ticket to spain in priceline.com for $720 and they just charged me $450?

they send me the confirmation in the email and it was just $450, but during the search and the whole process for buy it in their site the total price was more than $720

Airline Ticket Cost: $370.00 (USD) per ticket
Airline Ticket Taxes and Fees: $83.93 (USD) per ticket
Number of Tickets: 1
Airfare Subtotal: $453.93 (USD)
Total Trip Cost: $453.93 (USD)

that’s super cheap for an international flight im happy lol but I dont understand why, and I always buy tickets to the same destination and I never seen any that cheap, by the way just before buy it i registered on the airline iberia site so i can get some miles, since the flight first go to new york wit American airlines and then with Iberia, so in the process of buy the flight I put the number code iberia gave me, so why would they make me a discount when I ddnt have no miles U_U

Cheap Seats Airfare

Cash and Carry-On: Airline Does Previously Unthinkable, Charges for Carry-On Bags
Welcome aboard Spirit Airlines, the no-frills, fee-happy airline that just started charging passengers up to $45 one-way to put a carry-on bag in the overhead bin. Spirit’s airfare might be cheap but the fees add up quickly. Spirit Airlines – Airline – Business – Travel – Transportation
QANTAS ECONOMY CLASS CHEAP AIRFARES

Is Spirit Airlines as bad as people make it out to be?

I’ll be flying from McCarran (Las Vegas) to LaGuardia (NYC). I had to book them because my mom was paying for the flight, so I had to choose the cheapest one. Unfortunately, I didn’t read the reviews beforehand, and all I’ve come across are horror stories about how it seems to be part of their “service” to lose your luggage or how the workers have the worst customer service. I also didn’t know that they charged for checking in one luggage and for picking out a seat, and had only found out after the airfare payment had been processed.
I guess I brought it upon myself for wanting the cheapest airfare without doing research on the airline first, but I had a great experience with JetBlue for nearly half the price of what I paid Spirit.
So for all of you who have flown Spirit, will I be cursing myself the whole way to Manhattan?

Spirit used to be a reputable airline, but then gas got expensive and they shifted gears.

They now operate on a pay-by-service method where everything you ask for costs money. If you dont check a bag, you don’t pay for one. If you don’t get a Coke, you don’t pay for it.

If you want a true no-frills airline, this is pretty much as no-frills as it gets. your basic fare gets you…through security and possibly onto the airplane, as long as nobody else pays the ticket confirmation fee.

They deliver almost no service, but in their defense, they actually tell you up front they are going to treat you like garbage unless you pay them money. You get exactly the product they advertise and exactly the product you pay for. Nothing more and nothing less.
