Have you ever packed for a trip, sure that you couldn't possibly survive with one fewer pair of shoes; one less change of clothes only to throw out your back and wrench your neck and arms trying to haul your heavy suitcase around? Do you wonder how other people get away with carrying only one suitcase when they travel, and oftentimes only a carry-on bag?
Well, wonder no more! Visit www.onebag.com and, you too can discover the "art and science of travelling light" according to their home page tagline. Here you'll find an annotated packing checklist, a one-page packing checklist, advice on luggage, wardrobe, adaptors, internet cafes and more!
If you've ever spent the months leading up to long-haul flight checking and re-checking your seat assignments, what movies are playing on the plane and wondering if you're going to have power at your seat to watch a DVD on your computer or get some work done, I have the perfect website for you. Check out www.seatguru.com. Not only does this site list the aircraft seat maps for just about every airline and every type of aircraft, but they also give descriptions of each seat as far as legroom, tray table location, power ports, etc.
I found an interesting slideshow on Forbes Traveler this week entitled, "12 Ways to Avoid Airport Delays." Author Peter Greenberg racked up over 400,000 frequent flyer miles last year and he shares his tips with us.
Never check your bags.
Go the wrong way to get to the right place.
Don't stand in line; ask your airline to "protect" you.
A confirmed reservation may not be enough.
Text Google.
Use a credit card.
Book the first flight of the day.
Don't let airlines give you the minimum "legal" connection time.
Don't just check the departure board to find your flight.
Flightstats.com
Ask the airlines the right questions.
Take the bus or train.

Featuring Los Angeles
Los Angeles is a huge city with a population of over 10 million people. Visitors may be surprised at the city's sprawl, which spreads over 1,200 square kilometers. As a result, the best way to see Los Angeles is by car. There are some beautiful areas in Los Angeles and each one has something unique to offer. The beach areas have some nice bike paths and cute café's for people watching, while you can also see how the rich and famous live by driving through the ritzy neighborhoods of Beverly Hills. Originally just a dry desert city, the discovery of gold, followed by oil, the addition of an aqueduct to provide drinking water, and finally the influence of Hollywood on putting LA on the map, all played a part in making the city the large, bustling, congested, engaging, unique place that it is today. For more information about Los Angeles, visit our travel planner www.isecard.com/travelplanner/losangeles.html.
