RT @travelskills: Q5 Do you think the world will eventually move to "cashless" payments? Why or why not? #VisaAmbassador #TravelSkills http…

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A5. No I do not believe that will happen. There are problems that could arise from going cashless though some countries could see some value due to the cost and security to keep cash safe. #travel #travelskills #VisaAmbassador

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis Totally agree. Although, I was always good at using maps and enjoyed the challenge of figuring out directions ... I do kind of miss that. Kind of haha It seems so old school now, a lost art. #TravelSkills

A5. Cashless is a nice thought, but there are billions of people who still operate tiny businesses and farmer's markets and small farms who don't have any use for electronic payments yet. It will be a while. #travelskills #travel

Totally with you. My phone has not just changed travel, it's really how I travel. Quick photos, things to do, how to get there, so handy! #TravelSkills https://t.co/c4TcQPGH31

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis @LandLopers It's a conundrum -- the U.S. is the richest country and has a huge tech industry, but in some ways it's very backward #TravelSkills

replying to @VisaNews @VisaNews A6 Global Entry, which uses biometrics for ID, had radically changed the way I return to the U.S. from overseas trips. $100 for five years! #VisaAmbassador #TravelSkills

replying to @TheJourneyGenie @TheJourneyGenie @travelskills Same. Love train travel, but it’s not great in the US. In California sometimes you end up on the bus. 😒 It’s better on the east coast. #travelskills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills Google maps and earth are extremely helpful. I can look on google earth to see what the area looks and feels like before arriving! #travel #travelskills #VisaAmbassador

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet @ClaireFromYVR @HideawayReport Johnny, make the priority Rocky Mountaineer's Vancouver - Banff - Calgary route if you have not travelled it. https://t.co/ZBr2uHkjDQ That in my opinion is by far the most scenic rail route in North America. #travelskills

replying to @Travel_boomer @Travel_boomer @cjmcginnis part of the problem has been our size. Very costly to change everything across the board #travelskills

A5 I think cashless payments are the way of the future. We already have the technology -- it's just about the financial industry getting the will to take that step #TravelSkills

Research from @VisaNews shows U.S. travelers cited loss or theft of cash as a top money concern while abroad: https://t.co/AebPA5vgK1 #VisaAmbassador #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis @VisaNews [1 of 2] I'm still hesitant. I'm curious as to what safety & security protocols any card uses. The larger the company, one would think more safety, but leaked info from huge monopolies has been on my mind more often than not recently. #Bonvoyed #TravelSkills

A7: Social Media has opened the World up to everyone and have been to several places that were on @twitter and @YouTube #TravelSkills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet @VisaNews I've been pretty much like that in several cities. I get $100 or so in cash and just use it for small purchases #TravelSkills

cjmcginnis

replying to @VisaNews @VisaNews TIP These days, it’s frequently easier to get good customer service via Twitter than by calling an 800 number! #TravelSkills

JohnnyJet

replying to @VisaNews @VisaNews TIP Don’t tell the public of your travel plans unless you have a good alarm system or a housesitter. Share your plans with just your friends. #TravelSkills
