Explore WWII and Patriotic Sites: 🇺🇸 Memorial Day Travel Guide
Airlines and the people they employ to deal directly with the public have both become almost totalitarian. I'm a former third level airline pilot and I have little time for them now. There was once a time about forty years ago when I enjoyed flying as a passenger. Now I would rather drive to my destination.
That’s very interesting!! Do you think the flight attendants and airlines are mostly to blame or do you think some of that falls on the minority of bad passengers that ruin it for everyone else?
Since many of our domestic airlines’ flight attendants jobs doesn't start until the plane’s door is closed they are not helping you with your carryon luggage, can you blame them.
Interesting take! Can you tell me where you got that info? Are you a current or former flight attendant?
Don’t forget about the 3 shows in Vancouver BC in December. Video time again.
LOL, is this a call for more Swift or for some Vancouver love? Or maybe both? None of us have actually been to Vancouver before, even though I grew up a Canucks fan in Los Angeles after seeing Pavel Bure in the '94 All-Star game. In any case, thanks so much for watching and commenting. Not sure if I can turn around a video before her ERAS tour gets there, but I'll see what we can do!
Which one of these hostels are in Kihei?
Hi there! Thanks for commenting. None of the hostels mentioned are in Kihei. We did mention the Kihei Surfside Resort which is a very affordable condo style accommodation. When are you planning on visiting Maui?
Was in Maui this past August 2024, it was my first time and was absolutely stunning! Of course it was devastating driving through the areas that were affected, one of the main roads had just opened up a few days prior to us visiting. Anyone visiting please be respectful to the locals… they were nothing but amazing to us. 🌺❤️
Awesome to hear and thank you for sharing. I hope you found our video helpful.
I just went on Delta site and it says carry on 22 x 14 x 9, no change down to 21
@smoothsketch you are correct. Delta has not and will not be changing their carry-on size limits. That is an error on our part and we apologize. There's no excuse for our faulty reporting. We can only promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
it’s the weight that will cause me problems. Need a bag that weighs less and still has wheels
I think the Rimowa carry on agrees with you. It’s significantly lighter (4.9lbs) than almost any other bag but it’s also pretty pricey at $760. They must know something 🤔🤣
I found this one is small enough to be a personal under the seat bag but also has wheels, TPRC 15" underseater carry-on luggage with wheels w/ USB Port It is a decent bag for $50
Great find! I may have to try this one out!
Several airlines have insisted they are "cracking down" on "already-existing rules", not "new" rules made. I'm in Canada, and I have been on two flights recently on WestJet, who says the "personal size" item is TINY, the size of a small purse (16 x 13 x 6 inches, which in cm is 31 x 15 x 33). I can't find a small backpack or tote that is that small, and even more annoying is the fact of when i put my bag under the seat in front of me, there was WAY more room - I could have EASILY fit a regular over-packed backpack under that. They are MESSING with us! 😆 Thanks for the video; I love your happy, amused voice narrating. Have a great week!
That's interesting information. Maybe WestJet was just thinking about your legroom? Haha. Seriously, that is pretty annoying. I'd love to know their reasoning? They can't just be MESSING with us...right? BTW so glad you enjoy the narration! Thank you so much for watching!
@@TheVacationAgent RIGHT?! 😆
No chance the roof is going to be open in November
Yeah, we kind of figured. Bummer. Are you going to be attending any of Taylor's performances?
Good to be able to print your BPs online, however, you never know if there is a Gate change unless you checkin at counter⁉️
Great point. Always good to have redundancies!
W video 👍💯

You’re so funny, i kept laughing at your jokes, like those marie condo “does it spark joy?” Etc. 😅
Yay! It sparks so much JOY that you love the entertainment side of our videos! We hope you subscribe for more because if there's one thing we need it's more subscribers!! Please share us with your peeps! And thank you a million for watching and commenting!!
I am glad they did a least we know who flying is passenger on ticket
Thank you for watching and commenting! We hope you subscribe for more!!
TSA PRECHECK is great I love it I was glad I able to get because I 5 times yr
It is a great benefit! We love seeing that TSA PreCheck logo on our boarding passes!
Delta has been doing the advance gate check dance for a while now. Encountered it on a RT NYC-SFO trip in August. I'm okay with it as long as they don't charge me. At least the bags don't go through that luggage maze after the regular check-in. Oh, and ditch the creepy background music.
During editing, I've probably watched this video 10x or more and never once did the music strike me as creepy...BUT since your comment, I can see how it might come off as such. Maybe not all out creepy, but a little eerie for sure. Thanks for pointing that out. Next time it's gonna be at the top of my mind!
Ya forgot the 6th boro, Yonkers! 😂 (A nickname only) Its amazing how much Williamsburg has changed since the days NYC were my stomping grounds. Yes, The Bronx has beaches! Grew up going to Orchard Beach. Staten Island was always best for street racing 😎. Everyone should visit NYC at least once. I suggest October if you like the Foliage change. Or Christmas time is awesome if you don't mind the weather. Its magical still and people seem friendlier this time of year. Ground Zero is still too depressing to me, but i believe everyone should visit once. And if time allows even if you aren't a huge baseball fan, cat h a Yankees game. Take the subway there. Sit in the right field bleachers. Get the full experience. Oh and on Jersey City, you talk about changed!!! Great video. Great info.
Ah cool!! Are you originally from there? My wife and I lived there from 2013 - 2016 before we had kids. Lived in Downtown Brooklyn, then bought a condo in Clinton Hill. I miss it a lot. We go back at least 2-3 times a year. Of course, when I was there, the Yanks were bottom-dwellers, then the moment I leave they start making the playoffs again! Go figure. Thanks for watching man! Glad you liked it!!
@@TheVacationAgent I was born in Yonkers. Mom from The Bronx, Dad from Yonkers. Gree up in Westchester, then lived in Tribeca in the 80's for a while before heading to Fort Lauderdale. Then I lived everywhere 🤣😂. FL, NJ, MD, NY now (Orange County).
I was bringing 4 bottles of Romanian cognac (duty free) back from Romania to the US. We had a flight change in Warsaw, Poland and they told me my carry-on was too heavy. So I transferred the bottles to my wife's carry-on as her carry-on bag weight had already been checked. They saw us doing it and didn't say a word to us.
That's awesome!
In my previous trips to Maui, Lahaina was my primary destination. Other parts of the island were nice but nothing like Lahaina. So, I have been opting to go to Oahu instead of Maui for my Hawaii vacations recently. I would like to go back someday but not right now.
I feel you. When we went in April, there was definitely a hole in our trip. It was still enjoyable for sure, but not the same. I hope they rebuild authentically and not fill it with corporate, household names. You can find all of that in Wailea.
@@TheVacationAgent It’s also very sad to go to Maui knowing that Lahaina is gone!😭
@@Fulgum it was very sad, especially seeing the memorials the locals put up along the roadside.
Thank you for sharing.😊
You're very welcome, and thank you for watching!
@@TheVacationAgent And you are welcome. I am a former Purser Flight Attendant so, yes, suitcases and good ones to use are a must! ☺
took too long to get to the point. I'll read the airline's baggage rules posted on their webpage
Sorry you feel that way.
Your information is good. But what I really like is the sense of humor you deliver the information. Thanks, I had a few good laughs!
YES!!! Someone who gets it! There are a million videos on a million topics and almost all of them get to the point and are bland and boring. We're trying to add a little entertainment so that you have fun while watching. Thank you so much for watching and commenting and I hope you check out more of our videos and SUBSCRIBE if you enjoy them. There are many more coming!!!
Sounds like AI generated
I wish. It'd be less work for me.
I think the other posters mean ScotteVest and uses the American usage of the word 'vest'. We don't fly anywhere any more. The train takes us to Madrid or the car takes us to the UK via the Channel Tunnel - no f-ing about with baggage restrictions.
Would you like to see us post videos about trains? It is a topic I've been considering for this channel.
It is impossible to watch due to excessive junk
Sorry you feel that way.
Flight Attendants don't lift or haul s***!!! They certainly don't have a smile on their face................AT ALLLLLLL!
🤣🤣🤣 @angieharris8015 which airline are you referring to? I’d say that 95% of the time I’ve traveled (a lot) flight attendants are cordial at worst, and usually very pleasant. I can maybe count on one hand how many times a flight attendant was rude or annoyed. And when they were they didn’t take it out on the rest of the passengers. So I’m very curious to hear your experience!!
@@TheVacationAgent They aren't mean, they just aren't "pleasant" with a smile on their face. I am older than you are, so I have been flying since the glory days of PanAm, TWA, Eastern, the (original United with the Tulips), Continental etc etc. I completely see a HUGE difference between then and now. What may be "cordial" to you wouldn't be cordial back then (it would be considered rude). I'm pretty sure I've topped your "a lot" flight-experiences.
Hmm wow yeah, you are old, and very presumptuous too. But you are right. We aren’t living in yesterday’s traveling world. So it would be futile making a video about it. Still, most flight attendants are great by most people’s standards and if they aren’t initially smiling they always return one. Try being the one to brighten someone’s day instead of expecting others to brighten yours.
@@TheVacationAgent Nowwww who's being presumptuous? How do you know that I don't smile at them (especially since I have a big bright smile and perfectly white teeth). Also, why are you taking what I say so "personally?" Are you a flight attendant? I have never known a RUclipsr to be so rude to their Subscribers and/or people who watch (and like) their channel. The good thing is, everyone will see how you've responded to me (rudely), like calling me (old).......which I am fine with because I know that all of this will be read. 😁
Are you a subscriber? If so, welcome to the banter! I’m not taking anything personal. And again, you are right. Everyone who reads this will see that we’re just having a fun conversation. Sure some people will think I might be rude but I’ve been doing RUclips for far too long and the one thing I’ve learned is that you cannot please all the people all the time. The only thing you can do is try to have some fun with it. I hope you’ve had a blast and I hope you come back for more videos if you really are a subscriber! Thank you!! 😊
Just pay the fee or get it paid by an airline credit card (or an American Express card). There's always first-class too.
If everyone could afford it, I would totally recommend a flight rewards credit card. Totally agree with you on that!
I love Maui, thanks for posting this amazing video. I’ve been to four other Hawaiian islands, but Maui is my favorite by far.
Likewise. We go every year and it never gets old. Thanks for watching and commenting!!! Mahalo! 🤙🏻
Over size back pack should not be counted as personal item..
Hey, @rampar77 what do you think it should be counted as? Genuinely curious of your opinion! If it fits under the seat, it should be but if it's too big it should be counted as a carry-on, right? Thanks for watching and commenting and we hope you SUBSCRIBE for more!!
I learned a few new things….and was reminded of several more. Thx a lot!
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you so much for watching and commenting! We hope you SUBSCRIBE and come back for more!!
Wow . This exactly what's needed for us non experienced travellers, thank you
You are so very welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting and we hope you have safe and exciting travels to come!
Those EU "rules" are only advisory at the moment. You still need to check with your European (and UK) airlines for their specific sizes and weight allowances
Thank you for the clarification! And thank you also for watching and commenting.
Scotty Vest has been my hack for years, use to be a pain but with Clear, I can put many of my electronics in its various pockets and walk through boarding process, sometimes TSA takes a second look at it but In ever had to secondary screening. Only time I was called out while boarding was when I was using a Peak Design pack and the agent asked if I was a photographer, I said yes and they said we need to weigh that, i was .02 under the weight limit, after that flight I started using the vest
Very cool recommendation! Great insight. Thanks for sharing and thank you for watching and commenting!
WORTHLESS BABBLE !!
Too much filler! Just get to the point. I turned it off at the Mary Poppins clip.
Well, hopefully your travels are seamless and don’t need our info. But if you do end up hitting some bumps at the airport, you can always come back and watch the whole video.
probably needed to get the video over 10 minutes long... 🤷♂️
Well i enjoyed his video, this guy got a sense of humor 😊
@@jeanettesee4214 thank you! We know that you can get most of this info anywhere on RUclips. What's hard to find are entertaining videos. So glad you appreciate it!!!
This is my last trip to Asia? They are killing the fatted geese! Thank God I traveled yrs ago!!!!
Where in Asia? Has travel become more cumbersome in your opinion?
remember EU baggage rules apply to the UK.
Great note. Thanks for commenting!
Curious as to why EU rules would apply to UK. If I fly between the US and UK wouldn’t those countries dictate the rules? I understand if you are flying an EU based airline.
What are inches and pounds? PLEASE. Use international SI. Or get bonged.
It’s busy again, hotel prices are very high and many booked out.
Thanks for commenting! That is good to hear. Can you confirm that the hotels are booked with travelers or are many of the locals still displaced in hotels? If they are tourists, hopefully that means the locals are slowly moving back to their homes!
Maui is not back…so few occupancy at the hotels right now, people being laid off due to lack of work
I think we're on the same team...did you watch the video? It basically states what you just said; that we need more Maui tourism so that locals have the revenue and the inspiration to build back better than ever. Maui is back in the sense that it is open and needs visitors. I agree that it's not back to the way it was, and may never get back because of the economy, but those that love Maui like myself, need to return as much as possible. It's a win win, really. We get to be in paradise and help their economy at the same time.
This is awesome!
You are awesome!
Hi dear!!! Hope you are well. Your video-making is very good. Your content ideas are excellent. But I was researching your channel and was shocked to see that your every video has lower audience engagement and also reaches much lower. If you permit me to do so, I will share some information to increase your channel. Then you get lots of subs, views, and a larger audience reach organically daily. Are you interested to know?
Thanks, but no thanks!

As someone with chronic pain and illness I need comfortable warm camping equipment that’s not going to hurt while I sleep or a cabin. I don’t care about the luxury. I don’t have a good time when I’m freezing or sleeping on bumpy ground no matter how much my boyfriend makes fun of me. 😅
You gotta do you @JasmineTea127 right? Some of the Vacation Agent team likes Hawaiian Pizza, and the others don't. Sometimes, it doesn't matter what the other side says. LOL.
I’m in West Maui now with a group of 16. West Maui is packed! I’ve never sent it so busy
That's wonderful. Thank you for the report. We hope you are having a blast!

If you’re local, you should know Lahaina was not only the heartbeat in Maui, but it to fine, not only the aloha spirit, but the truth, soul of Maui. I’ve been Amaury over 25 times have many friends there now the healing is it going to take years. 🏖️🏝️🌋🏄🏾♂️🏄🏿🏄♀️💐🪻🌺🪷🌸🌼🌈🌈🌈
