We are pairs of 25/26 years with our two children (for ages 4 & 5) and I take them somewhere just for a weekend in February or March this year. We budget about $ 1000. This need to include the hotel stay as well. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Oh and BTW, we live about 30 minutes from Galveston and Houston about 40, so those two are out completely.

I’m planning to go to Singapore, and I’m getting pretty confused- all these websites have different rates for the hotel, how can I tell how much it really is? It’s really hard to get good rates too! I’m from the Philippines, and I gotta tell you, a 5-star hotel here can be half the price of a 5-star hotel there! If you’ve been there, any suggestions for hotels? Budget is only about 120 USD per night. Oh, and what’s the weather like in late may- early june?

Thanks!:)

Two friends and I want to go visit western europe over the summer. Where can we find the best deal on a flight from detroit (DTW) to either London or Amsterdam? I have checked some of the online deals, but I wanted to know if there were any good student deals (we are all university students) or anything that won’t break too deap into my budget. If you have any experience with getting cheap flights to europe, please help me out! Thanks everyone.

Kala asked:


Is it ok to ask for a different room if you find something dissatisfying? Window facing a wall? Very dirty? etc. Should you really tip the maid? Obviously not at budget hotels, but at what kind of hotel is that proper? If you know you will be late for check in how far in advance should you call and inform them? Should you call more than once? How late do you have to be for it to be required that you call so your room is saved (2 hrs late? 5 hrs?)? Any other tips (or websites you can find) on hotel etiquette would be appreciated? (I’ll be travelling in the UK)
