When that happens, most people find themselves scrounging around for a last-minute hotel reservation in hopes they can salvage their sanity. Nothing like a comfy hotel bed and a nice hot shower to make up for a stressful travel hiccup, right? Well, not me. By now you should know if it involves an added expense, count me out. I'm not sure how many airports I've slept in, but I can tell you: The Worst Airports to Sleep At Disclaimer: Each of these experiences was unique to my particular situation, and I understand others have fared much better. 3.

The pandemic has made a lot of things inconvenient. For travel, this virus has only caused problems, complications, and confusion. Due to multiple lockdowns and restrictions, many of us have not been able to go where we want (and when we want to).  While I am by no means a master, I've picked up some tips through my travels and thought this would be an appropriate topic worth sharing. We'll do two focuses here: domestic travel & international travel. I know both don't apply to everyone, so if you're only interested in one type, I've split them up JUST FOR YOU.
