[Kerwin at Passrider.com] Sharing Your Travel Tips | U.K. ETA Changes

Hi Fellow Traveler,

If you’re new to the newsletter, welcome. If you’re a regular reader, thank you so much for reading my words each week :-).

The weather is turning sour over the next few days so I hope your travels will be O.K. Give yourself extra time.

If you’re in Houston and flying United and your gate is Terminal B, you have to check-in at Terminal C if you’re checking a bag. If not, then you can just check-in online and use Terminal A as there will be less congestion.

Travel Tips

A special treat today as I’ve compiled the tips you gave me during the scavenger hunt and created an article with it. Here you go; enjoy as much as I did and thank you! Click the image below.

Heading to Australia

Next week, I head to Australia; visiting Sydney and Melbourne and flying Qantas, JetStar as well as Fiji Airways (will be a new airline) with a 12 hour or so stop in Nadi, Fiji.

And remember if you’re heading to Australia, you will need to apply for an ETA similar to what you need for the U.K. You must download the App to do so and pay the $20 AUD fee. It’s a bit of a chore. I had one done, but since my ETA which the App generates expired, I had to apply for another one.

Follow on Instagram as well as YouTube. Let me know if you want me to explore anything special while on this trip.

An answer to every “What’s for dinner?” question: That’s Tovala.

Imagine coming home and not having to worry about “What’s for dinner?” Instead, you can enjoy a freshly cooked meal and never have to compromise on quality, taste, or your time. (We think you deserve all those good things.)

Tovala is the revolutionary meal delivery service + smart oven that’s making breakfast, lunch, dinner—pretty much every meal—easier than ever.

With Tovala, you can enjoy chef-crafted meals that arrive fresh to your door and skip your weekly—or daily—trips to the store. Plus, every meal cooks like magic with the scan of a QR code in just 25 minutes and with only one minute of prep.

UK ETA

Here’s an update. The U.K. has changed the rules slightly; now you don’t need to apply for an ETA if you’re transiting the U.K., only if it’s your destination. This is the wording:

“You no longer need an ETA to transit through the UK if you will not pass through border control ('airside' transit).”

But, the fee for the ETA will be increasing soon; so if you are thinking of heading to the U.K. apply soon.

I have a trip coming up next month, which is a transit trip, so I won’t need one; but I think I’ll just get one anyways.

How are things in your neck of the woods?
