Airline snacks a goner with Frommer
NEW YORK – Noted travel writer Arthur Frommer has released his New Year’s resolutions for travel that include these promises to change his ways.
I will limit myself to carry-ons, and never check a single bag;
I will carry sandwiches from home, and never bite into a single airline snack;
I will use public transportation from airport into town;
I will never book a connecting flight; if there’s no non-stop to my destination, I won’t go there (with some exceptions);
I will share courses with my wife, ordering a single main plate for the two of us;
I will stop patronizing “duty-free” shops;
I will never book an uncomfortable “boutique hotel” designed by a famous fashionista;
I will never use a credit card that doesn’t earn frequent flyer mileage;
I will never board a cruise ship carrying more than 700 passengers; and
I will remain calm and unperturbed by refusing to read the travel section of the New York Times.
