replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @TheTravelCamel Oh, no! It was glorious the day we started the Great Glen Way and Fort William was unrecognisable from the end of the West Highland Way. #TRLT

replying to @loyaltytravels @loyaltytravels @CaitlinKellyNYC Same with me - I get lounge access without a business class ticket (it pays to be a loyal customer) - smoked salmon for breakfast at Dubai airport. #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 Its about 30 hours flying from London. The first time I went connected in Bangkok and Sydney. The second time I took a more leisurely 6 months to get there. #trlt

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @TravelAtWill Definitely hard to deal with, but sounds like you figured out, a solution, Tim. #TRLT

@TheTravelCamel @TravelAtWill A4. At khardungla, people ain't allowed to wait for more than 20' as O2 level is less at that height. But owing to land slide & bad weather, my group among others got stuck there. My story: How I spent stuck at Khardung La & lived to tell the tale - https://t.co/54SdmyXjhQ

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @TravelAtWill A4 In Maldives, my computer didn't update the time zone properly and I was "off" the whole trip. Didn't figure it out until I missed the flight back. Oops. #TRLT @TheTravelCamel @TravelAtWill @HHLifestyleTrav

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TravelAtWill A4: Finding a lounge that will accommodate me when I'm too early by their standards. Or a full lounge like in Doha on that long trip. Too many people using Lounges these days #TRLT

A4: I missed my connecting flight from Vilnius, Lithuania, to Dhaka, Bangladesh, in Kiev, Ukraine. I had to stay 2 days in Kiev until the next flight, which I loved. Impromptu visit that was a welcome bonus in 2013. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @TravelAtWill A4: Quite a few flat tires in Namibia. Good thing I was carrying two spares. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @CaitlinKellyNYC Yes! Most don't realize that at all. One weird thing though is that when flying U.S. domestic, I don't get Lounge access, but when I fly international on partner carriers the same status gives me Lounge access. I get it, but it's weird. #TRLT

A5 If you're going by train, take a good book! @HMatthews recommends THE WRITER'S TALE by Russell T Davies. Also: take toilet paper (not a direct alternative to books, you know what I mean...) #TRLT @LindaPeters64

A5: Best advice for long journeys - allow extra time for delays or detours to explore. Being rushed during travel, and especially long journeys, is not a good way to experience the world. #TRLT

replying to @VoyagerVicki @VoyagerVicki There are far worse cities in the world to be stuck in for 2 days. One of the world's most beautiful cities. #TRLT

A5 #TRLT Do your homework on the area & transportation. Know your options & try to figure out what your alternatives are if something goes wrong.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A5: Pack light. Use hotel laundries. Build in down time. Budget 10-15% more than you plan. And be sure to say 'yes' to impromptu opportunities to learn about where you are! #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 Be sure to arrive in good time at your next destination! Arriving in the dark isn’t much fun and can be unsafe. ESP with African roads & the lack of lightning/ headlights #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TravelAtWill Yeah, that was right after when the wheelchair assistant forgot my cane and had to run to get it. The day before I lost my eyeglasses at my hotel. 😠 #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TravelAtWill Exactly! People do carry too much stuff these days #TRLT

replying to @DrNeilMatthews @DrNeilMatthews @hmatthews @LindaPeters64 I've been in world class airports that didn't have toilet paper in the cubicle I occupied. An essential travel item. #TRLT
