Checking your backpack on flights

You are very lucky then. I’ve flew to Maui for a 2 week holiday and my bag never showed up. I flew home and it arrived a week later. Then flying out of LA, my bag was days late arriving to Rome. After that, I’ve never checked my bag again. I’ve done carry on (no matter how long I’m gone or...

Checking your backpack on flights

I would never risk checking my pack. Carry on all the way. I parked down my belongings until they fit a pack small enough for carry on - 34 L osprey.

Euros

This is the way I always travel. Just get some euros before you leave. I had €400 on me and used my Visa card for accommodations. The cash was for everything else.

Travel from Canada to Porto

I flew Toronto - Lisbon - Porto. Coming home I flew Madrid - Toronto because I took a side trip to Madrid afterwards. I figured I was all the way over in Spain, I might as well see some other parts of the country while I was there.

Checked backpack question - US to Porto

Thanks for posting this question and everyone’s comments. I haven’t checked my luggage in nearly 15years after repeated airlines losing my bags. I’m leaving for Porto in 40 days. I am nervous and excited all rolled into one. 😊 I’ve got a rather large Deuter 60 +10 backpack that I’ve had for...
