Question by : What are my travel options to get from Union Station Washington DC to IAD with 2 adults and 2 kids under 3?
Basically, we are arriving by train and need to pick up a car rental at the airport as we are flying out of IAD.

Answer by cdw763
The most cost effective way would be to take the metro from Union Station to L’Enfant Plaza and then take the 5a bus to IAD. Otherwise, a taxi cab will get you there, but at a much higher price!

Will the Obama administration save The New York Times from ruin, by eventually bailing them out?

The New York Times plans 8 pct newsroom staff cuts
By ANDREW VANACORE – AP Business Writer

NEW YORK — The New York Times said Monday it will cut 100 newsroom jobs and an unspecified number elsewhere amid industrywide declines in advertising revenue.

The Times already trimmed about 100 positions from its business operations this spring and plans additional cuts. The newspaper would not say how many.

http://www.thesunnews.com/253/story/1124063.html

Will their “hard hitting” editorials continue or will they finally wake up and realize that they simply don’t sell papers?

What are your thoughts?

Best answer:

Answer by Western European Mutt – WEM
The Times should go under because they’re nothing but an arm of the DNC and controlled by Obama.

If i take a flight from london to san francisco, what is the net time gain from the day’s travels?

Question by : If i take a flight from london to san francisco, what is the net time gain from the day’s travels?
say if i leave at 10 in the morning in london, what time would i arrive in san francisco?

Best answer:

Answer by Tanusree M
The time difference between London and San Francisco is 8 hours. Right now it’s Tuesday 7:48 PM in San Francisco and in London, it’s Wednesday 3.48 AM. So when you leave London at 10 AM, it’ll be 2 AM in San Francisco. So you’ll gain 8 hours not counting the time it takes to fly here.

How long is a flight from Chicago to San francisco?

Question by Sweetheart88: How long is a flight from Chicago to San francisco?
Will it be more than one stop to get there? When they say its more than one stop, do that mean I have to switch planes or do i stay on the same one while people get off? I want to fly out from Midway on a Thursday and come back on a Sunday.

Best answer:

Answer by techmaniac
For direct flights: From O’Hare, you have 2 options, United and American.
If you want Midway, book with southwest, best fare you’re going to get. There are direct flights to San Francisco Int’l [SFO], or Oakland Airport nearby. Go for direct flights when you can. Stops will probably get you a lower fare, but its more tiresome. Flights usually take around 4.5 hours westbound, and 4 hours eastbound.

Jetstar flying from Manila-Jakarta?

Question by : Jetstar flying from Manila-Jakarta?
I am flying alone and this is my first time. I will be booking in the next few hours and still undecided. I am planning Jetstar since it’s cheaper than CebuPacific. Jetstart flies Manila-Singapore-Jakarta, one stop-over. Do I need to get my luggage again? What are the process? How will it be? Then there’ll be 3 hours gap till my next flight to Bali departs via AirAsia. Will it be okay? I am really worried about my luggage and the hours that will be spent on custom and immigration in Jakarta. I don’t want to be left for the next flight. What should I do about this? Will it be fine? Thanks

Sorry, I’m really clueless since I’ve been flying with my parents since then and now that I turned 19 they allowed me but I won’t get any information/help from them. Please help. Thank you

Best answer:

Answer by Gerald J
Jetstar does not offer baggage or ticketing connectivity for almost all their flights. I would try to contact them about your layover in Singapore. You very likely will need to claim your luggage in Singapore, clear customs and immigration and check in again for your flight to Jakarta. They do offer limited connection service on certain routes, but I don’t know if they do in Singapore.

In Jakarta, you definitely will need to claim your baggage, clear customs and immigration and then check in for yor Air Asia flight to Bali.

You’re definitely doing it the hard way when you fly those types of airlines that do not offer baggage and connection services with two layovers. Three hours should be enough time in Jakarta, and I hope you have a long enough layover in Singapore if you need to clear customs, immigration and check in again.

If you make it through without any problems, you’ll be a seasoned pro after your trip. Good luck.

About how much would it cost for a flight there and back from Washington DC to southern Florida?

Question by ehnordseth: About how much would it cost for a flight there and back from Washington DC to southern Florida?
in the month of august. just an estimated guess?

Best answer:

Answer by JLAY88
202.00 (United Airlines) — 279.00 (Delta) this is a 1 week roundtrip flight from Baltimore to Miami

135.000 — 183.00; if flying to FT. Lauderdale

*rule of thumb, always book a flight on a Tues/Wed if you can. The prices of tickets are generally cheaper because of low traffic volume and its the middle of the week; most often more business people are traveling at this time so the wait is minimal at best.

Hope this helps :)

I heard car rentals from Forida are cheaper if rented on a one-way trip. Is this true?

Question by baka_desho: I heard car rentals from Forida are cheaper if rented on a one-way trip. Is this true?
If this is true, where can I go for this information. I’m driving from Miami and San Francisco.

Best answer:

Answer by Fred
That is NOT true, and look very carefully on the fine print and other destination charges for one way rental (that is not returning to the originating location)
