What will happen if I overstay in Sweden by 1 day?

5/7/2014 9:01:40 AM The Swedish embassy website has this page about visiting friends and relatives for longer than 90 days http://www.migrationsverket.se/English/Private-individuals/Visiting-Sweden/Visiting-relatives-and-friends/Longer-than-90-days/How-to-apply.html Why do international drivers licenses have limited validity? 5/6/2014 12:15:24 PM Staying for more than 90 days would be breaking the law, unfortunately for you. Moreover, the 90-day rule applies to all of the […]

UK Tier 2 visa expires on last day of work contract. Can I leave and immediately return as a visitor to arrange my move out of country?

7/30/2022 3:14:25 PM I agree it wouldn’t look good. I don’t know the legal specifics, but unless you get an official source that 100% confirms that it isn’t a problem, I’d just avoid the hassle altogether. If the company is not willing to give you a few days off near the end, then I’d suggest […]

US to Canada by car with an enhanced driver's license, no passport?

7/22/2022 6:37:25 AM An Enhanced Driver’s License is the functional equivalent of a Passport Card as far as Canada is concerned. The EDL is a bit cheaper than a plain driver’s license + Federal Passport Card, because much of the identity checking parallels what the state is doing anyway to grant you an ID or […]

Why do international drivers licenses have limited validity?

5/5/2014 5:37:07 PM The one year validity was originally set in the 1949 Geneva Convention on Road Traffic and agreed upon. Anyway, in the 1968 convention of the same topic it was changed to no more than 3 years validity after the date of issue or until the date of expiry of the domestic driver’s […]

Expert-guided tour of an offshore wind farm in or near the North Sea?

5/6/2014 12:48:13 AM There’s aerial tours being offered from Germany for WindForce 2014. They’re going to be run on Monday, June 16 and registration closes on May 30. More details are available here.

Travel from London to Mexico City with stop in Dallas, Texas

7/17/2022 2:20:44 PM So the case of the US is peculiar compared to other countries when it comes to transit. There are a few very limited exceptions (and a more frequent one if there’s pre-clearance, but that doesn’t happen for flights from LHR), but in the majority of cases, here’s how things go (in the […]

8/28/2014 4:20:27 PM To claim for delayed flights compensation in the EU under (EU rule 261/2004) should only cost the price of a stamp to your airline.

Requirements for tourist stay in Ireland longer than 3 months, UK citizen

7/14/2022 10:43:21 AM Except for voting for the President of Ireland (because Irish citizens can’t vote for the UK head of state), a British citizen has all the rights as an Irish citizen while they are in Ireland and vice versa. The primary difference in moving from Manchester to say, Liverpool, and moving from Manchester […]

Explain travel times and distances on flight

4/15/2014 6:37:46 AM Three are two main factors for the difference between the two flights you’ve listed. The first is the overhead of take-off, climb, decent and landing. These will be roughly equivalent for all flights, so are basically a fixed overhead. For the two flights you’ve listed, the times you’ve given are those published […]

Why don't they give you a sweet on take-off anymore?

12/23/2022 8:22:25 AM I may be the reason for hard candy no longer being given to passengers during lift-off. In 1969 I was on a flight from England to Holland. I was the only passenger and sat at the middle of the plane. In the rear was 6 flight attendants beating returned home. Buckled in […]

Why is this ticket not bookable?

6/30/2022 2:02:49 PM There’s really two different answers here. The first is why won’t it let you combine the two exact flights/fare you’ve found. And the second is why can’t you find any combined flights/fares for those routes. First it’s worth going and reading this answer to get a bit of an understanding of how […]

6/10/2022 12:33:10 AM Even if you wouldn’t need a visa if you decide to stay on the plane, there is always the risk that they change the airplane on short notice, for mechanical reasons or whatever. If you then need a visa to get out of the one plane and into another, you could be […]

American Service Dogs In Canada

5/30/2022 6:59:12 PM So this answer applies to Alberta and specifically addresses those "planning long-term stays in Alberta or will be traveling frequently to the province", but i think is about as close of a factual answer as we’re going to find. If anyone has any similar/equivalent info for British Columbia (or any other provinces), […]

Cheapest way to travel from Osaka Kansai airport to Kyoto and back?

8/29/2020 11:13:52 AM It’s worth mentioning that Kyoto is not the smallest of cities and not everybody wants to walk through it with their luggage on the way to their hotel. Furthermore, Kyoto is serviced by three private railway lines in addition to JR and the municipal subway provides access from Kyoto station to the […]

11/15/2022 1:36:52 AM This happened in Chicago O’Hare for domestic travel. We had MTR ready to eat Dal makhni in Carry on baggage. The TSA agent asked us to remove it and suggested that since these are considered gel he can’t let these pass but he suggested that next time we should try freezing it […]

Manual or Automatic transmission: Do rental companies let you choose which type of car you want to rent?

3/12/2014 6:49:30 PM Well, in Brazil you can get automatic transmission, and like @Mark said, it’s more expensive. However, be advised when rent “popular” models with manual transmission. In general, the most cheap models are insecure (no ABS, no air-bags…). There are some companies you can contact: Avis Locaralpha Mistercar Localiza Do I need a […]

Can I use my parent's house as accommodation for a Schengen visitor visa?

4/26/2023 11:17:28 AM After calling the local authority, I managed to clarify how to prove my parent’s house as accommodation. I had to fill out a document called "befogadó nyilatkozat" (which means something like "hosting declaration"), have my parents, who are the shared owners of the house, sign it and have 2 witnesses sign it […]

7/7/2020 3:33:32 PM New Russia-Belarus visa agreement (2020-07-01) As of 2020-07-01, you no longer need a separate visa, as Russia and Belarus recognise each others visas.
