Cheapest airports in Asia
Friday, October 23rd, 2009
When planning a round the world trip, putting your itinerary together usually seems quite easy, at least as far as the longer flights are concerned. You’ll fly from New York to London or from Los Angeles to Sydney or from Cape Town to Rio, as these options are generally known to be the cheapest to connect one big region to another. But things can be more difficult to plan your entry to Asia because the scene there can be confusing and can change regularly.
So with that in mind I’ve done the research for you. Of course the lists below could potentially change a bit over time, but at least this will give you a place to start your research. I spent a long time going over databases and using various tools that I could find on the internet, and some of the results were a bit surprising, though others were exactly what I expected beforehand.

I didn’t include India on this list since it’s not too easy to get around overland from India. Most people fly into India and then fly out of India.

Sleeping in Airports
Tuesday, November 6th, 2007If you’re embarking on a trip around the world, chances are you’ll have a couple of long layovers (planned or otherwise) to deal with. Long hours of boredom or hoping to get a few hours of shuteye without having all of your stuff stolen are a few things to think about before arriving at any airport for the night. All airports are not created equal (far from it actually), and you could be in for a big surprise if you’re planning on bedding down, getting something to eat, or having something to do. You can have some idea of what you’re up against by visiting www.sleepinginairports.net, or “The Budget Traveller’s Guide to Sleeping in Airports.”
