Flying used to be a luxury experience. Never for anyone under 50 years old, but it apparently used to be very relaxing and fun. Now, the first thing you experience when you get to the airport is the unnerving feeling someone might have slipped a kilo of illegal substances into your bag while you nervously walk around in your socks… Doesn't sound as luxurious anymore.

Family vacations are supposed to be fun for the whole family, not just a few members. But this mother wasn't too concerned about the feelings of the rest of her family, so long as she got a break for herself. Vacations are so great when you're a kid.

These vacations to Italy and Hawaii sound incredible, so it's a shame it didn't work out as the vacationers planned.

Here's a travel tip for everyone out there: don't upset the airport security staff!

As these traveller shared, the traditions, norms, and day-to-day life will be completely different once you travel from the USA to Europe . For future travelers, these folks compiled their experiences that made them say “What in the world?!” Many people reflected on the history going back hundreds or even thousands of years longer than the USA.

However, for one non-discriminating foodie has combined the horrors of motel bathrooms with the culinary arts, building his entire social media platform on creating elaborate recipes…

"Their failure to secure seats together is on them, not on you."

The joys of TSA

Nothing to see here.
