A2 #pttravel In Europe, if your flight is canceled, they have to find you another flight even if it’s on another carrier. The US doesn’t have this rule. I’d like to see that here.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie @RTWBarefoot Coming from the country of bureaucracy (Germany). I bureaucracy is so natural for civil servants because it's their job that they tend to forget all the effort needed to understand basic stuff #PTTravel

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot Opportunities for people to be in the middle of transactions just because its a pain. To get a visa and try to get it faster, we used a visa agent. Process should be better and not cost so much in fixers #PTTravel

replying to @findinganeish @kate_frankie A1. Related frustrations have to do with missing photo opportunities, whether it’s a dirty window on a train or a pedestrian who stops for no apparent reason and stands right in the middle of my shot. #PTTravel

@kate_frankie I'd argue that visas shouldn't exist, but yes #pttravel
Visas restrict travel to the able and affluent, definitely the privileged.

replying to @OanaRoua @OanaRoua that's a really good idea, if I weren't such a control freak. I hate the idea of losing control of my body/senses #pttravel but equally i find flying really dull and uncomfortable. So .....

replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @kate_frankie So. Mostly transport-related? #PTTravel

replying to @aok_NW @aok_NW That's a great one. I was shocked in the USA when it happened to me. I just went to the desk and said ok, which alternative and was met with disbelief #PTTravel

A2 #PTTravel I could never understand why people pay for 'priority boarding'. However, I'd pay good money for 'priority deplaning'

A1 my main traveling irk is sketch lodgings. It doesn’t happen as much anymore since I’m a loyal hotel member, but hostels/home rentals/smaller hotels that mis-advertise and you end up with a room with bugs, rodents, paper thin walls, far away from public transit…#PTTravel https://t.co/Uk76anhJ5y

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1. Arrogant or rude travellers who are horrible to locals. There is just no need for it #pttravel
RTWBarefoot
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie yes, although it's interesting many restrictive / expensive visa policies are implemented by non-white countries just as much as colonial ones. For the same reasons (only wanting the rich in, which in many African countries' case means 'not other Africans') #pttravel

replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide @kate_frankie Yeah, pretty much. For obvious reasons it’s less of an annoyance at night or at 30,000 feet. #PTTravel
