For the love of god, if your child is not young enough to qualify as a lap infant - please don't try to pull a fast one on the airline staff and sneak your kid through.

I had a flight from Ft. Lauderdale to LAX and I booked an aisle seat towards the back of the plane. I prefer the aisles as I can't sleep on planes and I like to be able to get up to use the lavatory without bothering anyone.

If your room doesn't have a refrigerator and you call the front desk to request one, you're going to get charged a daily rate rental rate for it.

I'm an amateur photographer trying to get more into my hobby. Do I need to use equipment like lens hoods and filters? I see a lot of people using them, but I never know if it's truly necessary.
