Title: Frommer's What the Airlines Never Tell You by Maureen Clarke ISBN: 0-02-863594-9 Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Pub. Date: 15 May, 2000 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $9.99 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.5 (2 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Good collection of info, but no need to buy the book.
Comment: This book is useful tool to acquaint readers with a variety of air-travel info. Especially interesting are the details on what happens if you're denied boarding (or "bumped"), as well as tips on getting good fares. As such, this is a good handbook. However, the title is misleading, because the airlines do in fact tell you the information it contains. The majority of the content in this book is readily available on the Internet, if you're willing to look for it. The airlines' web pages are a good place to start, as most of them explain their denied boarding procedures. The DOT's web site also has an excellent selection of free articles on mnay of the same topics this book discusses. If you'd like to get a bunch of info in one convenient place, Frommer's is a good place to start. However, it's not hard to invest a little more time to find the same stuff online for free.

Summary: What the Airlines Never Tell You
Comment: What the Airlines Never Tell You, a new book from Frommer's, is an exceptionally useful handbook for people who want to maximize their air travel experiences. Author Maureen Clarke provides tips on everything from conquering the fear of flying and beating jet lag to a wealth of insight on how to get a great seat, cut the costs of travel, and increase your odds of getting an upgrade. I read all 300 pages straight through in one sitting and have plenty of dog eared pages to reference the next time I fly. As someone who loves to travel, I appreciated the detailed suggestions that she has to offer: whether or not you may want to buy travel insurance and Consumer Reports recommendations on best sources; products you can buy to make your inflight experience more comfortable, along with their prices and sources (for instance the Bucky travel pillow...), and sources and costs for around the world tickets (she suggests Airtreks, and references a sampmle route of San Francisco, London, Bombay, Bangkok, Hong Kong, and San Francisco for ... as a recent offering.) It's an excellent resource and well worth [the price] and a couple of reading hours for the time, money and aggravation it promises to save.
