And looking at it from the other way. Have come across people who never thought they needed travel insurance or declare items on it, particularly medical conditions until it all went wrong

This is a fair point, it’s just got nothing to do with my point.

@bob

And like the USA the consequences of not having it are ruinously expensive

And despite the fact having it is prohibitively expensive and then still doesn’t cover loads of fees.

The cost of holding your baby or having essential skin-to-skin contact after birth COSTS YOU MONEY!

I’d have done time…

[bob]

As you age or add conditions, the cost rises.

@MajorDisaster

Insurance is probably the most capitalist thing ever

Isn’t insurance just the practical demonstration of the “from each according to their ability; to each according to their need” principle?

No more corps blues will be issued.

Have you read the IBN? It’s much MUCH worse than just no Corps Blues.

Just when you thought people couldn’t get any more short sighted!

Plans to charge volunteers for PVG 'could not come at worse time'

I’ve taken some time away from social media (especially Twitter/X) to get away from negativity.

Decided I’m going to spend some time away from here too. There is far too much negativity spreading in, and I don’t want it affecting what I’m trying to do within the RAFAC.

Yes, it’s not in the best place right now… but before i chuck in the towel, I’m reprioritising and focusing on my delivery to the cadets.

Train price rises,

Its now cheaper for me to commute to my Frankfurt office than London

@AlexCorbin

Its now cheaper for me to commute to my Frankfurt office than London

What would be the cost of commuting via Frankfurt?

[AlexCorbin]

£34 with cattle class ryanair which isnt a million miles away from a SW Train service

[MikeJenvey]

Ah, but that’s Frankfurt Hahn - only another £60 for connection to main city centre!

Drove an aircraft out of an hangar there once……

[WhiskeyNovember]

Good luck; I hope you find what you’re searching for.

[AlexCorbin]

Got to be better than Frankfurt Maine, thats the worst airport in the world

[MikeJenvey]

Nope, Paris CDG wins that award. Even Moscow airports were better than CDG!!

Frankfurt (& Munich) have always been very good for me whereas CDG has often been chaotic in areas, which poor customer service from many of the staff.

Frankfurt (& Munich) = much easier for all the processes - & the boarding gate is allocated the evening before your flight & shown our your boarding pass.

Madrid is a very nice airport, but far too big.

Nope, anywhere in the USA

Naaa minneapolis st paul was great

[Victor_Zulu]

Fly yourself everywhere, the airports that can handle GA, up to including SF50, TBM, PC12 etc are the best.
