Hi there, I’m explaining our situation—my daughter and her young family have just moved to Polynesia, specifically to the island of Raiatea. That’s great, of course, and my wife and I are planning to visit them. However, flights that go through the United States are causing us a problem because we’ve been to Cuba. I think we’ll need a visa because of that. Has anyone else dealt with this situation before? Any advice on flights and visas would be really helpful. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hi, it's my first time taking a plane and I chose EasyJet for a Geneva -> Barcelona flight. I booked my ticket. I received my booking reference by email, but I don’t see the actual ticket (barcode or QR code?). Then I checked in to get the boarding pass with the flight details, QR code, etc. But does this boarding pass act as the ticket? Because I’ve seen several times online that the flight ticket and the boarding pass aren’t the same thing.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

Last February, I made a trip using "public transport" from France to southern Senegal via Spain, Morocco, Western Sahara, and Mauritania.

It’s a journey of about 5,000 km, where I took trains (as far as Marrakech), ferries (to cross Gibraltar and then to reach Casamance from Dakar), and mostly buses on the long desert straightaways. I hadn’t planned any stops in advance or booked any hotels, except for the very first train to Spain, which left plenty of room for the unexpected. Why travel by land and sea? In recent years, flight-free travel has been gaining popularity. On social media, posts explaining how to cross Europe by train as quickly as possible go viral. Traveling without flying—and making sure people know about it—has become a great way to earn a badge of eco-responsibility: an essential totem for anyone wanting to prove both their dedication to the ecological cause and the wisdom of slow travel. I haven’t flown in years, and this journey to West Africa could easily be filed under "responsible travel." But it wouldn’t be honest to say that: in reality, it wasn’t really my aversion to flying that motivated this long trek. I see overland travel primarily as a way to experience the world’s geography at a grounded, earthly pace—the pace of the locals. Besides, I’ll be flying back, which disqualifies any claim to being a model of sustainability. So no eco-badge, and no adventurer’s badge either: you won’t find any heroic tales of camel rides in lost lands or mineral train wagons in this account (popular with influencers, the Mauritania iron ore train now attracts tourists from all over the world, turning "the experience" into something you "have to do at least once in your life"). This five-part story, written on the road, has no other ambition than to recount a journey through places and people, and to share the thoughts they inspire in me. As simply and, I hope, as humbly as possible.

I’m posting the episodes here, which you can also find on my blog (with more photos) at the following links:

Episode 1: Spain, from Avignon to Algeciras

Episode 2: Morocco, from Tangier to Tarfaya

Episode 3: Western Sahara, from Tarfaya to Guerguerat

Episode 4: Mauritania, from Guerguerat to Nouakchott

Episode 5: Senegal, from Rosso to Saloulou

To help those who might want to make the same trip, I’ve also put together a summary of the route with recommendations—you can read it at the end of the story and on the blog: From France to Senegal Without Flying: Route and Itinerary Recommendations

Happy reading, and safe travels!

Hi there, I booked 4 flight tickets with China Eastern. Unfortunately, I swapped the first and last name for one of them. Do you know if I can contact them to get it corrected? Thanks!

Hi, I saw that the first tram from Pont du Garigliano leaves at 5:15 AM, and by taking the RER B at Cité Universitaire afterward, I’d arrive at Roissy at 6:30 AM—2 hours before my international flight. Is this doable, or not? If anyone’s done this before, I’d love to hear about it. Thanks

Hello, We’re planning to fly from Paris to Bangkok at the end of June with my wife, our daughter, and the baby who’ll be 4 months old by then. The baby won’t be born for another 2 months, and I was wondering if it’s possible to book the 3 flight tickets now and add the baby after the birth? I read that a ticket isn’t necessary for babies. Can you confirm this for me? Is there a risk that in 2 months they’ll tell me the flight is full and we can’t add our baby? Finally, is it possible to reserve a seat in the first row (where there’s the most space) right now? Thanks so much for your help

Hi, I booked flight tickets with Turkish Airlines 15 days ago for a round-trip for 4 people to Thailand in August 2026. On my reservation, I only included my married name, but on my passport, my maiden name appears along with my married name. I only noted one first name—I didn’t include my second or third first name. For my husband and children, I only included their first first name. I called Turkish Airlines a few days ago as a precaution, and they were very helpful, guiding me through the process of adding a comment to request the modification with scanned passports. They confirmed it would be free of charge. Today, I received a response from TK saying I need to buy new tickets with the required changes and then provide them with the new reservation details to be reimbursed for the initially purchased tickets. I called Turkish Airlines again, and they advised me to file a complaint using the initial comment I made. I did that tonight, explaining that I made these requests as a precaution—I fly every year and have never included my maiden name or other first names on my reservations, and it’s never been an issue. Plus, I can’t afford to pay for new tickets since prices have skyrocketed (+1000 € for 4 people). I’m really worried and anxious about this situation. We’ve been saving for a while to afford this trip, and I hope it gets resolved favorably. Have any of you experienced similar issues or situations like this? If so, how did it go at the airport? Thanks in advance for your help

Hi, I’d love to get your thoughts on a one-way transfer from Cairo to Hurghada on January 2nd. I’m traveling with my parents and I’m torn between a private car transfer or flying with Air Cairo (a bit worried about last-minute cancellations or delays). We’d leave around 10 AM. Is the road dangerous by car? If flying, is Air Cairo a reliable airline? Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have an idea about how flight ticket prices drop for a given destination? (Excluding Ryanair, of course.)

We need to leave for Seville on December 27th. Generally, airlines launch trips on a specific date with a high price to start filling the plane. As the departure date gets closer, the airline tries to fill the plane and lowers its prices, so the ticket price becomes reasonable again.

Example: Right now, for a trip in about 10 days, the average round-trip ticket price is usually around 200 €. Currently, the round-trip ticket price for December 27th is 450 €.

If any of you have more precise info on this topic (for example, if the price drops 15 days before departure), thanks in advance for your input. Jean Paul

Dear VoyageForum members,

For the past two months, I’ve been checking flight ticket prices to spend 4.5 weeks in Thailand from early July to early August. I’m traveling from Brussels with a young child, so I want to avoid layovers. That’s why I’m only looking at Thai Airways’ website and only choosing direct flights.

At the end of August, I saw tickets for 955 € per person. On October 1st, they were 1,225 €. Today (October 22nd), the price is the same as on October 1st. (Same dates: Departure: July 4th, Return: August 7th.)

My question is: Is it possible these prices will drop significantly in the coming months?

Note: I clear my browser cache before every search, which I always do during the week and in the evening. This time, I also checked with my work computer, which has a VPN. So, the price isn’t influenced by cookies.

Thanks in advance for your feedback and tips.

Hi there, After our first trip ten years ago, we’d love to return to Cuba in February 2026 to explore the eastern part this time. With only about twelve days, we’re ruling out traveling hundreds of kilometers from Havana, but finding a flight to Santiago de Cuba or Holguín from Paris is proving to be a real challenge. If anyone has any tips, advice, or opinions, I’d be so grateful! Thanks in advance, Joséphine.

Hi Will the new airfare tax be applied to flights departing from Geneva on the French side for Air France flights to Paris? Mich74

Hi everyone,

So glad to see this forum still so active!

Quick question for those who’ve recently traveled to Australia: I found a Singapore Airlines flight from Marseille/Frankfurt/Singapore/Sydney for 1425 € round-trip (from 11/10 to 12/8).

Do you think that’s a good price??

I checked directly on the Singapore Airlines website, but the price is way higher than on the comparison site.

Thanks for your input!

Can you see the Statue of Liberty when landing in New York?

Hi,

I’m leaving for Brazil in two weeks with my partner and just realized I made a mistake on the flight ticket regarding the middle name. Usually, I never include one, but this time I wanted to add my partner’s middle name—and instead of putting it on his ticket, I put it on mine. So now I have an incorrect middle name (a male one, no less!). Otherwise, the first and last names are correct. Do you think this could cause a problem, given that the middle name is optional? Thanks!

Good evening. I hope you're all doing well. Sorry in advance—my message will be a bit long, and sorry for any spelling mistakes.

So, here's the thing: I booked a flight ticket through an intermediary to go to Réunion from November 29th to December 16th. This evening, I was checking the dates and times of my flight, and—WHAT A NASTY SURPRISE!!

My outbound ticket is correct—no issues, the day and time match perfectly. But there’s NO flight at the time listed on my return ticket!!! I thought it must be a glitch. I refreshed the page several times, cleared my history, and even searched on other sites and in private browsing.

But it’s still the same—no flight on December 16th leaves at the time shown on my ticket. I went back to the intermediary’s site, then checked the airline’s website, and I had the idea to try December 15th for the departure—and BINGO! The return flight time, the airline, the type of plane—everything matches.

I realized then that the site that sold me the ticket made a mistake on the return date. I don’t know what to do because I can’t get anyone on the phone.

Since the error is on their end, are they obligated to change my flight to December 15th, or do I have to pay for a new ticket?

If I ask them to put me on another flight on the 16th, will I have to pay fees or not?

I’m completely lost and pretty upset, so if you have any answers to my questions, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Hi there, I bought a flight ticket with Turkish Airlines to Vietnam. On the form, it said: first name then second name, which I did. However, my passport has 3 first names. I called a number in Paris, and they played it safe by repeating: the names must match exactly what’s on your passport. I’ve seen on forums that some say even one first name is enough… Do you know about this situation? Thanks everyone.

Hi

What’s the fastest and most affordable way to get to Cuba?

Thanks

Bonjour,

Je souhaite partir de Martinique pour Cuba au mois de décembre/janvier mais quand je cherche un vol depuis Fort-de-France, impossible de trouver une combinaison sans avoir un voyage très long avec beaucoup d'escale (voir passer par Pari!).

Quelqu'un a t-il déjà fait ce voyage? peut-on me donner des conseils ? merci d'avance

Bonsoir, je pars demain en voyage a Lloret del mar en avion et j'aurais aimer savoir si quelques uns d'entre vous ont deja pris l'avion avec une chicha du gout des charbons et une plaque chauffante et si oui ou est ce que je peut mettre ca ? Bagage a main ? soute ? Merci

Bonjour,

J'ai l'habitude de prendre mes billets d'avion en fin d'été pour l'année suivante. C'est à ce moment là que les billets sont les moins chers.

Cependant, d'une part l'inconnu Covid nous guette (le virus sera-t-il encore dissuasif dans un an ?), d'autre part le futur incertain des liaisons aériennes aussi (les avions voleront-ils autant qu'auparavant ?). Ajoutons à cela l'attente des remboursements des vols de l'été 2020, attente qui risque d'être longue.

Je me demande donc s'il est pertinent de réserver ses vols au plus tôt avec un bon prix mais un risque d'annulation ? ou réserver ses vols plus tard en risquant sans doute de payer plus cher ?

Bonjour à tous J’ai une question à vous demander SVP. J’ai ma mère qu’a l’alzaimer et veut retourner au Maroc mnt en italie chez-moi ma j’hésite. Y’a une personne de vs a vécu cette expérience me dire SLV comment la envoyer en avion tt seule et quelle est la procédure à faire merci infiniment

Bonjour à tous,

Tout d’abord, j’ai bien conscience que la question a été posée plusieurs fois mais je veux vraiment faire les choses correctement et sans prendre de risque, c’est pour cette raison que j’aimerais des retours d’expériences:

J’aimerais acheter un billet d’avion du Venezuela vers l’Espagne pour quelqu’un vivant au Vénézuéla (de la nationalité de ce pays aussi). Visiblement, certaines compagnies réclament la carte bancaire ayant servi au paiement et autres formalités mais ce n’est pas toujours très clair car il y a des versions différentes.

Par exemple, j’ai appelé Turkish Airlines qui n’ont pas su me dire si le voyageur aurait besoin de la carte bancaire ou non... Ils m’ont dit « ça dépend de ce qui est inscrit sur le billet » (véridique).

J’ai lu que si l’on passait par une agence de voyage ou via un site de type GoVoyages (etc...), il n’y aurait pas de problème. Qu’en pensez-vous? Quel est le plus « safe » pour mon cas de figure? Dans l’idéal, j’aimerais éviter de passer par une agence de voyage. J’ai tenté d’appeler AirFrance aussi mais les événements récents liés au COVID font qu’il est difficile de les joindre (je n’ai donc eu personne).

Voyageant souvent, il est vrai qu’on ne m’a jamais demandé une seule fois la carte bancaire ayant servi au paiement (parfois c’est pourtant ma société qui payait les billets) donc je m’étonne un peu de cette formalité.

Merci d’avance pour vos retours et vos conseils. Je tiens vraiment à éviter que la personne en question se retrouve bloqué au Vénézuéla a cause d’une histoire de carte bleue.

Bonne journée à tous.

Bonjour,

Après plusieurs trips vélo en France, je me lance et souhaite partir à l'étranger dès que cela sera possible ( vue la crise sanitaire! ) Mais plusieurs questions restent en suspens et c'est pourquoi, je me permets de vous demander conseils: Je n'ai jamais mis mon bô vélo en transport avion: -comment et où garder le carton vélo du transport en soute pour le vol du retour pendant mon trip vélo ? -Est-ce qu'une guesthouse peut le garder ...sachant que je ferai un itinéraire en boucle et donc , je repasserai par le point de départ. Bref, vous comprenez que j'ai besoin de conseils pratico-pratique. Merci de m'éclairer Caro
