Why would it matter OP, you're not cucked american so probably have far more rights and entitlements to fix it easily. Something tells me this is a seething american thread because how bad their airlines are. Never had issues with British Airways

Hey thanks, what about public transportation?

nightlife is completely dominated by black people... video of the nightlife: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s2j4HO4zGY

I got a £490 ($660) roundtrip London to Beijing on Turkmenistan airlines when every other airline was like £800 or more. 32kg baggage allowance
Turkmenistan airlines is probably the cheapest way to get between western Europe and China, they have some flights to SEA as well but idk how economical those are
the only disadvantage is that there is usually only one flight per week, if you want more flexibility or to go one-way there are probably other cheaper options
coming back from Beijing to London one-way I also once went via Astana Airlines which was £250ish for a 3 hour layover in Almaty and an extra 5hrs of flying compared to direct (we had to dodge Russia and Ukraine). Direct was £500. They have one flight every three days Beijing-Almaty-London I think?

>>2818309
Getting two Lufthansa A -> B and B -> C tickets will never ever be cheaper than one A - > B -> C. The algorithm hates pricing direct flights low and you'd be getting two of those here.
What can be cheaper though is getting Wizz Air A -> B and Air Asia B -> C. Vastly cheaper at times, to the point you might just spend two or three nights chilling in B and still come out ahead financially.

>>2817576
They make the tickets cheaper if you're from a Conservative area

>>2818533
Surprisingly, London has cheaper flights to Beijing than many central European airports. IDK if Turkmenistan Airlines still offers that itinerary. The only destination pickable for Beijing on their website was Ashgabat.

In general I would advise against flying AA basic economy for any long flight. My home airport is an American fortress hub (changing thank god) so I've flown their economy class more times than I can count.
You get literally nothing on American-- random seat assignments that aren't even told to you until just before you board, terrible amounts of legroom, some of the worst inflight service, and a generally outdated shitty fleet. You'll almost certainly fly in a Dreamliner or Triple Seven from a decade+ ago.
Definitely see what other options there are, American will nickel and some you for everything-- changing your seat at all? $10. "Upgrading" to the exit row? $30-50. Checked bag? $75.
I flew coast to coast in basic economy and was lucky enough to get an aisle seat but it sucked ass for 5 hours where the stewardess only did one round of the beverage cart and all we were fed was the world's tiniest baggie of pretzels (flavorless btw).
Delta at the very least lets you move seats for free within the Basic class and doesn't consider the exit rows an upgrade (ie you can be randomly assigned them).

in zambia i saw a lot of people cycling everywhere. it's basically how people get around to run errands etc
mostly they have old fashioned bikes with baskets on the front so they can carry their shopping and so on
elephants roam around and if the cyclists are not careful the elephants steal the food from the baskets

Traveling during covid was great in some aspects. Much less tourists, you get entire places to yourself, less hassle from locals.

>>2820374
So if I do
>fly into germany spend 2 weeks for oktoberfest
>fly to Svalbard not technically schengen some territory shit for a week
>fly to sweden for 2 weeks

It only counts as 1 "visit" on my 90 days, so I could come back later in spring with no issue?

>>2820376

Yes that's fine. The only thing that matters is actual days spent in the schengen area not entries.

>>2820380

You can always be a sovereign citizen.

If you had actually mentioned the country, it would be easy to answer. All countries have their own visa and entry regimes. Check country A's policy on airport transfers.

I may be in the same situation OP, except it's a 15 hour overnight layover.
Is it feasible to explore the city at night?

>>2818592
Istanbul is lively late into the evening, particularly in summer.

Defo explore the tranny brothels near Taksim.

Not OP, but going to Turkey next month for first time with friends. Istanbul/Cappadocia/Antalya. Easy to get around? Will they steal my shit?

>>2814851
The metro is shit. The airport bus is better in every way. It costs less and takes you faster to the center.

I've been to Azores for 10 days years ago.
I think its well worth the visit, especially if youre looking for an active trip and if you love nature. There are so many beautiful sights just on the main island alone. I also climbed the Pico, its around 3 hour climb, not too demanding, i didnt have any previous experience with hiking and i climbed it without issues though i was in pretty good shape back then. I love all the old buildings, streets, all the old timey stuff far away from big city hustle. I absolutely loved their cow cheese that can be bought in any supermarket there. For sure the best cheese I ever had, you can really taste the untouched nature, clear air, healthy grass and healthy lives the cows have there. It tastes truly delicious. Bread is sublime too. Locals wont surprise you if you have any experience with locals in smaller towns around the medditeranean. Lots of old people and they mind their own business though they arent rude. Young people are honest with you and arent really scheming and slimey like city folk. They are unassuming and simple. I talked to some guy who hasnt ever in his life left the islands. Also, keep in mind that for traveling between islands there are interisland flights and they are free( or atleast were) if you show them your Lisbon- Azores flight ticket. There are even some surf beaches. Nature is pristine, untouched and almost jungle- like at the moments. Check out all the main sights online so you dont miss them. There arent that many people there or that many tourists either, which is a big plus for me. Thats why i went. I dont like Ibiza or London, give me Azores any day of the week

I'm interested due to the rally event.

>>2815066
How much time do you recommend to spend if I want to visit all the islands except São Miguel (where I've already been)? Would primarily be interested in hiking and nature.

Odd question here

Do they have orthodox churches in the azores or is it basically all catholic?

>>2820382
I'd say no but a friend that's been to the Azores told me he ran into a lot of ukrainian draft dodgers there.

>>2812593
If it's not night flight don't even try. If it's night flight and you can't sleep, it means you don't need to sleep.

How typical of muttmerica. Chicago's airport had a problem with homeless people living inside too. It made the news.

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/homeless-community-ohare-international-airport/

Let's say it's a +15 hours flight, it's night and you're in peasant class, you're not very sleepy: Can you do something else on your seat or all passengers agree on turning shit off and trying to sleep and not disturb their neighbors?

>>2819993
you've never been on a plane before? the flight crew dims the lights which is a clear signal that it's "sleep time"

>most the time I coom way too fast, how do you guys deal with that?
I had this problem since I first lost my virginity. You have to edge yourself to come without orgasming. Think of it as pulsing and leaking. You have to grab your girl's hips so she doesn't move at this crucial moment and just cum in her without orgasm or much orgasm. After it subsides you can go again harder and longer. I've been using this technique for like 15 years.

Get out of your country then bhenchod. It is our country now. Reverse colonized goodbye

Just come back from 3 weeks in Indonesia. Started in Jakarta then crossed Java before going to Bali and Flores/Komodo. Original plan was to travel Java by bus and train but mostly did domestic flights as it was far less hassle and saved time and days. Their flag carried Garuda is good

Jakarta doesn't have much to do, probably worth a day or two at most. Boring place. I heard the nightlife was good but never tried it. Yogyakarta is the best place on Java for sightseeing, especially Borobudur and Prambanan Temple. Don't fall for the sunrise/sunset tour meme, they open after sunrise these days so you only do it from a distance
Bandung and Semarang are each a daytrip at most
Surabaya was okay
I enjoyed Bali a lot, it has good nightlife and lots to do. I was there one week but wish I had spent more time
A trip to Komodo is worthwhile if you're interested in them but will likely take 3 days - you need to fly to the neighbouring island (Flores) and then the following day can get a boat to Komodo. You'll then probably only be able to fly back the following day unless you rush things. There is nothing at all to see or do at Labuan Bajo, it's just for getting to Komodo
Majority of tourists there were Europeans (Britbong here) with some Australians, Chinese and Jeets on Bali but less than expecting - might not have been the season for them

If you're white expect to get a lot of attention, especially in Jakarta. Most people were friendly and wanted conversations and pictures. Maybe a culture thing but they seemed more unused to white people and approached a lot. Watch for scammers in Yogja

Traffic is awful everywhere in that country. Factor it in when planning

>>2803054
>they would marry a chink-looking bogor local girl,

These are Indonesian Muslim women and have nothing to do with Chinese.

If Asian looking = chink looking, then every single Indonesian person is chink looking.

What was your total spend for the three week trip?

>>2817293
From a little pile to a bigger pile, i.e. a "landfill". Bag it up and put it on the roadside so the dogs and recyclers can tear the bag open and scatter it all over again. Light it on fire and force everyone to breathe the toxic fumes.

I'm going to Mumbai in three months. It's the honkingest city on Earth, they say. Not planning on sticking around too long, as megacities aren't my cup of tea.

I had a hard time finding anywhere that would take me. Finally this farm in central California coast nestled in a mountain valley, really beautiful. They didn't have anything to do. I was ready to work but there was none to be done. They let me sleep inside the main house. There were a couple older guy workers and a younger guy. The younger guy kept getting in blow up fights with the guy who ran it, who was a real piece of work. I left when he left since I didn't have a car.
It was weird shit and made me lose interest.

Do you have an RV? They much prefer to hire people with RVs, but if you don't have electric, water and sewer hookups, they'll put you up in a motel room for $150/week or so. Rooms are limited, so the earlier you get hired, the more likely your chances of getting a room. A car is a requirement.

Shifts are 12 hours long. Of course, everyone wants the day shift, so new hires are likely to get the 12 hour overnight shift. That's what they gave me when they hired me. I decided that waking up at 5 AM for an eight-hour shift on a golf course was better than 7 PM to 7 AM in some muddy field. However, the beet job would've stacked the cash faster due to the 44 hours a week of overtime accrued.

What time of year was this? In winter it can be very difficult to find a farm that is in need of volunteers. There is a filter you can use on WWOOF-USA to find farms which have immediate openings. I've seen a few listings which specifically took in people who were down on their luck. Kind of like a working charity. Most people are very skittish about hosting brokefags, cannabis smokers, and anyone without a car who is not a foreigner.

they are still as friendly as ever. perhaps the easiest asians to befriend for westerners. although their directness can rub those from passive-agressive cultures the wrong way at times.

Not the guy you were talking to - I've never been to Korea but I've met quite a few Koreans in Japan and Switzerland.

What struck me as interesting was that the men were always complementing what to me is strange aspect of my looks (like you have big eyes) and they always invited me for stuff outta nowhere.

IDK how it is in Korea but elsewhere they've always been nice to me.

In any case, I'm going to Korea next year, Seoul/Busan/Geoje.

>>2818657
This is correct.

t. been to all these countries unlike everyone else in this thread it seems

>>2820076
lmao Korean compliments really do make you do a double take
"you have such a small face"
"your nose is so tall"

>>2820134
Yes exactly.
I wonder what's up with that, and it's not just one person either, it seems to be a really common thing amongst Koreans.

Here's a list of your choices:
>Join the military

Usajobs.gov if you really want to work in SEA with US level pay and benefits.

It's generally easy work with lots of downtime in between shit, pay is good, 40hrs a wekk, and usually contracts that end in 4-5 years so if you don't like it getting out is easy

>>2820182
>I’m an amerifat with a meme degree in Cybersecurity as well as tons of IT and cybersec certs. I literally can’t get hired anywhere in the US after trying for 3 or 4 years.
If you have a 3 or 4 year gap in your resume and no real experience, you have no chance of being hired for any overseas tech work.
>American firms with foreign offices
They will immediately file your application in the the dumpster after seeing that you haven't got 10 years of experience or a 4-5 plus a connection to someone at the company.
>Eastern Europe/Asia
The competition for tech work in Asia makes America look like Disneyland. They get paid about as much as you would work a McJob, you don't and won't speak the language, you won't be able to handle thirdie nonstop work culture, the list goes on.

>>2820182
>Could I get a job in a related field in Asia or Eastern Europe?
