X and I took Air France from Singapore to Paris. It's a direct long haul flight which took about 12-13 hours. Here's a post to share with you our experience!

The screen fixed on the back of the seat in front of you tells you the route that the plane will take and how much longer the journey will be and also provides you with sufficient and much-needed inflight entertainment.

We had quite a pleasant experience on Air France. Their staff at the airport in Paris were especially nice. However, when we got back to Singapore, X and I were in for a shock when we realised that X's luggage didn't arrive back in Singapore! It was still in Paris. And the worst thing was, we were supposed to leave for Taiwan the next day! Thankfully, the luggage was sent to X's home a couple of hours before he was supposed to leave for the airport. After some research online, we found out that Air France is quite infamous for its handling of baggage. Also, please note that when purchasing travel insurance, you've to include the day of arrival back in Singapore. We flew back from Paris on 13th June and our travel insurance covered the entire trip until the 13th. However, we arrived in Singapore on the 14th, and the delayed baggage was not covered ):

  2. Travel insurance could be bought to help travelers offset any expenses associated with illness while traveling. Travel insurance is always considered a good option.

  4. Heading to another country and discovering the particular sights with limited funds with all your handbag strapped in your back, has been a best exploring alternative regarding thousands of folks for many years. A lot of people exactly who discover far away countries in this way include the younger era, though currently it appears that is a sensible way to discover countries regardless of your actual age.travel

  5. Hey,
    Exactly, you have written. Here you have been quote one of the latest and very effective data. This is very nice post! I will bookmark this blog. There are many factors a home has to be Vacant home insurance when it is marketed. Suppliers may have to shift out before the residence is marketed, the residence may belong to a deceased friend, it may have been rented out before and the seller is unable to discover new renters, and the list goes on. When promoting a residence we tend to think it has to have all the lovely staging and furnishings so clients can imagine themselves moving right in and making it home sweet home, but that may not always be the case. There are many individuals who buy homes who are looking for vacant homes, and you’re supposed "pitfall" of promoting a vacant home may be your savior.
