Travelling is Getting Tough

i love to travel but the requirements are getting tough. Besides a passport, you need visas for some countries and now an ETIA's. Applying for these online VISAs takes an Act of God.

it is hard to keep on top of the health requirements too.

It does make things simpler to travel within your own country these days.. Even travel insurance can be a problem as we age..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman LOL. don't remind me of that...it is cheaper for me to go to Europe than it is to travel in the US...one day i hope to head to Austrailia

@akindheart Then lets hope your currency holds its value a while longer. Or what looks expensive now may be your cheapest option..😷

@akindheart Turkish Air then to wherever in Europe. Flying to the Philippines is only $120 more than Hawai'i.

@myotherlife every single country is different on what they require. and it can take months to get through

I expect it will cost something to get and smacks of another way to get revenue to me out of people

@Avectoijesuismoi exactly. they keep warning us of the ETIA but it hasn't even been finalized yet. i have a trip that it is going to impact.

akindheart · 61-69, F
