Answer by James
I highly recommend Los Angeles if you love beaches, sunshine, shopping and great food. Some beautiful beaches include Malibu, Santa Monica and Redondo, but Venice Beach is a bit rundown.
My favourite shopping malls are The Grove at Farmers Market, Westfield Century City and the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica.
Southern California is sunny all year round with occasional rain, I was there last November-December(winter) and I felt very comfortable wearing short sleeved shirts each day.

Question by Rachel H: Help. Jealousy. Vacations.?
Ok so in Janurary my cousin is playing in a soccer tournament in Orlando. My mom says we are going for four days. Now a lot of my friends are mad because this is like almost the third time I have been to Disney within a twelve month period even though tecnically it has been over a span of three years. The first time in this so called ‘three times within a year’ situation was December 24-Jan 12006/2007. The second time was June 28-July 6 2007. The will be third time is some time in Mid-January 2008. Also in November we are planning to go on a Disney cruise then stay at the resorts for a week. Then people will be saying ‘four times in a year’.
The real question is how do I deal with the jealousy and mutiny of others? And them saying that I’m spoiled and stuff like that?
Also I forgot to put in that I really really am greatfull that I can go on vacations like this, and everything else that I have/get.
Thank you. Most of these are pretty helpfull. Although I did not even tell anyone. I got asked to go to a party, and I told them I could not go because I was going away.

Wait, what’s the problem here? Must be nice to be 13…

Maybe instead of being upset people are jealous you should be happy your parents are able to afford so many vacations. I have never been to Disney…

I am really bad at finding vacation deals. I mean horrible.

I am looking to go in decemeber with 1 other person. I am not looking to stay in luxury hotel where I don’t need to leave the hotel.

you have to do what feels right for you. if you were close with your grandpa you might lean towards going to receive closure and honor him. just know that if you choose this decision you’ll have lots of catch up work at school

Question by Leah: experienced travel people…flight help???
hey, I just found out I’ve definately going to Malaysia from January to June, and I wanted to know what the best way/time/place to book a flight was? like…what’s a reasonable/cheap price for a flight from canada to asia? Is it best to book right now while it’s still really early? Also, I don’t know an exact date I’ll be coming home…is there a way I can buy a ticket with an open return date? i don’t see that option really on websites. is it worth booking through a travel agent…like will they find better deals or will they just add more of an expense? well…as you can see i have a lot of questions. thanks for the help!
I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba… if that gives you a better idea

Best answer:

Answer by Gerald J
I live in Thailand and fly between the US and here often, you should be able to purchase a round-trip fare for between $ 800-$ 1000 US, depending on where you’re flying from in Canada. It may cost quite a bit more if you book the flight around the Christmas-New Year’s travel period. If you can wait a week or so after New Year’s the fare will most likely be much lower, just check different dates to be sure. It may be cheaper just to book a return date in June, and pay the penalty for changing it if you have to rather than buy an open-return ticket, you’ll need to call the airline to find out what the restrictions are on any ticket you buy and what is the best and cheapest way to change the flight if you need to or what the price of an open date ticket is. I would check prices on the internet first to get an idea of the cost, you don’t say what city you’re flying from, but Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, Malaysia Airlines and China Airlines among others, all fly to Malaysia and are all good airlines. It’s probably not too early to book, but someone may offer a good special between now and then, you never know. It can’t hurt to call a travel agent as well, you’ve got time to explore the many options you have. Good luck.

Question by Kincso D: Help me plan a CRUISE?
So I want to go for my birthday in december (2009) or january (2010) depending on when my winter break is for school on a cruise. I need it to be less then one week so about 2-5 nights if possible. I live in seattle and want to go on a “cruise to nowhere” as in not visiting any ports just out to sea. If you see any deals would you inform me? Please! I want this to be memorable as well as cheap! Or tell me a website for planning cruises? (but preferably deals or prices you find)
Thanks for any help!

(has to be cheap cause im only 13 and only have $ 200 saved, so ways of making money would also help)
