The Venice Carnival is the most internationally known festival celebrated in Venice, Italy, as well as being one of the oldest. Venetians wear masks since the 15th century, but the tradition can be traced back to the beginning of the 14th Century.Certainly the symbol of the Carnival is the MASK, the most famous of the Venetian masks is the “bauta”, the white, smooth and essential mask. Masks are a big cottage industry in today's Venice, and sold all year round. You can buy masks all over Venice including the islands of the lagoons.

Airline Travel Lingo! Does The Language Need An Interpret

2008-01-14T07:11:00.000-08:00

With airline travel increasing in record numbers, more people are experiencing the frustration of understanding the airlines industry language, and leaving them feeling that they need an interpreter for the travel information they're receiving from the airline industry! It seems that air companies think that every individual that flies should have to understand all that travel Jargon they place on their flight reservations, and maybe it's about time we figure out what they're talking about, because it's costing you money and valuable time!Once you learn all the airlines travel terms, you won't be dependent on your local travel agent anymore, and he/she won't be able to collect all the wonderful service fees from you for being your traveling interpreter. The price of your travel flight is based on many intricate components that the airlines reservations department implement, not to purposely confuse you, but to formulate their airfares and determine what they need to charge each passenger for all flights taken.Now if you already know most of these airlines flight terms, then that's ok. However, there are many people that are new to travelling, and are now beginning to use online air suppliers to capitalize on the great deals they offer. But when you're making that reservation, you want to understand why the flight you selected is so cheap, and what are the reasons for the low pricing.Misunderstanding in Airline Terms can cost you more money!Most of the airlines service terms you will come across will play a big factor on whether you pay an expensive price for you ticket, or getting the discounted travel deals you're looking for in the first place. I will explain the most common industry terms that many people get confused about:Nonstop versus Direct or Through Service: Don't get this one confused, because many airline companies don't explain this properly. Nonstop means exactly that, and most travelers want these flights, so they book-up quickly. You fly from your origin and land at your desired destination without any stops in between. Direct or Through Service: This can get a little confusing to many individuals. The aircraft even though is en route directly to your destination, it may be making some routine stops on the way, and all passengers must remain on the plane at that time. There are many times when you print your ticket that it will not list the cities that it will be landing in, so it is always wise to investigate a little further, and see how long the stop is going to be in each individual city.Connecting Flight: When you're on this type of service flight, now this is treated differently than the other services above. With this type of flight the plane travels from one city to another, however, the passengers must change aircrafts at some point between the origin city and the destination city.On-line Connections: This is when you change an aircraft but continue to fly with the same carrier. So if you're flying form Los Angeles to New York on American Airlines. If you make a stop for example in Denver, you will change planes at that airport, but with the same American Airline carrier.Interline Connection: This is when you as a passenger changes airplanes, but instead of boarding the same company plane you will be on a different airline. For this example, you're flying from Seattle, Washington en route to San Antonio, Texas. If you were on a United flight, you will have a stop in a city in-between your origin and destination, and let say you have to get on an American carrier to continue your journey. The main reason for this is that the particular airline company may not be flying into certain cities due to particular business reasons, so then they share with competing airline business companies.Open Jaw: No it's not when you see the price of your ticket and your jaw drops. This trip is one in which you depart out of one city, and later return from another city. For example: you fly from San Diego, California to New York City, and then return back home from the city of Boston back to San Diego. This can dramatically increase your airline ticket, so if you're looking to visit a family member in another city that you arrived in, and then depart out of another city where your families live, then carefully check and make sure you understand this term.Consolidators: A consolidator can be your friend if you understand how they work. Simply put, they purchase tickets from an airline at a rate less than the tariff, with the intention of reselling the tickets to either you the public or travel agencies. They buy tickets in bulk from air carrier companies, and therefore offer substantial savings. If you happen to be wondering what a tariff is, it's basically set pricing, rules, and regulations all put in place by authorized organizations in the airline industry. Lets talk types of Fares! If you're searching for fares online, you will come across a list of different terminologies for your ticket, and it will reflect on the price you end up paying. The airlines distinguish certain fare prices by the terms normal or restricted.Normal Fares: A normal fare is first class, business class, and economy. These have no restrictions such as advanced reservation requirements or minimum stay stipulations. Such flights are valid for one year from the date of the first flight and can be extended if not used within that period.Restricted Excursion and Discounted Fares: These have certain restrictions, and that is why they are cheaper to purchase. They're sold with a number of conditions attached, which most require advanced reservations, and there is normally a minimum and sometimes a maximum stay requirement. Travel dates are pre-determined, and any changes in most cases are subject to a penalty, or at times you can't make any changes at all! Airlines limit the number of seats at these fares to encourage travelers to book early.With an understanding how the air travel industry communicates, and how they determine a flight schedule and pricing, you will eventually be able to speak their language, prevent air lingo confusion, and obtain the best flight itinerary and price with this new knowledge!

Hi All,
First of all, Happy New Year!I have found this article which I think might be interesting.
Hidden costs of cheap travel(08 January 2008)
Passengers of low-cost airlines are paying more than the price advertised, according to a survey by consumer group Which?.
Hidden costs, including extra fees for checking-in luggage or priority boarding, are reported to be adding up to £32 to ticket prices.
The Office of Fair Trading demands that airlines include taxes and other mandatory charges in all headline prices.
Which? reports that budget airlines have been charging for services that were previously included in the ticket price.
Ryanair was found to charge the highest extra cost, requiring £4 for desk check-in and £20 for checking a bag into the hold. The airline maintains that the charges are discretionary and avoidable.
The survey concluded that all extra fees, including credit card charges, could reach £32 with Ryanair, just under £30 for easyJet and just under £25 for BMIbaby.

Hi all,
This is my first blog ever! I run a travel website: http://www.travelbestoffer.com/.
Travelbestoffer.com is a discount travel website that monitors travel deals and reports on discount travel packages, low cost flights, bargain hotel rates, cheap car rentals, inexpensive last-minute travel deals, exciting destinations and holidays resorts .
This idea comes from the fact that finding the best travel deal online is hard. I'd better say that booking online is easy and fast but find the best travel deal for your money, isn't easy. It needs time and patience but often people end up booking the first or last thing seen online wasting time and perhaps money.
I've worked for so many years in travel agencies and I wish I could tell you which is the best travel booking website but in reality it doesn’t work that way. Since there are so many variables at play, you have to run searches at a number of sites. So how do you get the best fare?
My recommendation to find the best travel offer online is to try different days (one or two days after or before), if you can and search for nearby airports.
When you find the cheapest option that matches your budget, don’t think about it but book it straightaway! You will be very disappointed it when 2 days later you’ll see the same flight more expensive!!! Carpe diem!

Thanks for taking your time to read my blog.
Don't hesitate to contact me if you need any help in finding your best travel Deal online!

Have a nice evening.
