Is it allowed to carry “a knife” or “a pepper spray” while traveling by road in the Schengen area as a woman? @jwenting: that would make great question for Skeptics.SE ;-) |

Why is buying an airline ticket from the company more expensive than from an aggregator like Skyscanner? actually this is not only limited to airlines, may other businesses have lower prices when accessing from aggregator sites. Logic behind it is that if someone uses aggregator site, he's not decided on airline yet. And obviously lower the price, higher in the search. Sometimes $5 can make difference between result #1 and result #20. |

Traveling international from Peru with dual citizenship baby Actually in some countries it's more than just "should be", it's a legal obligation to use country's passport while entering/leaving if you're citizen. |

Is there catering on Dutch domestic trains? When I traveled on A'dam->Brussels train few months ago, there was a trolley (train was normal IC, not Thalys), but they didn't offer much (coffee and candy bars). That train seemed to be operated by Belgian Rail. |

How can I do a “broad” search for flights? In SkyScanner you can also select whole country as your destination, for example "Italy (Any)" |

Is it feasible to travel daily from Gavà to Barcelona? Also, in the car option you left out the question of finding parking space in Barcelona. And paying for it, which isn't cheap. On the public transport page you can check how long it takes on emt.cat/Principales/BusquedaTrayecto.aspx Seems that it's about 50 minutes bus ride. |

Am I entitled to air passengers compensation if my flight was cancelled and I did not get a re-route? btw. cancellations, which are indeed due bad weather, are usually about the weather at destination, as visibility minimums for landings are much stricter. |

Getting passport stamps inside Schengen Area @machlas: no there isn't. Schengen-Schengen flight is just like domestic flight. There is ID/ticket check performed by airline and that's it. |

Getting passport stamps inside Schengen Area @Simon: ask who exactly to stamp you passport? there is no difference between Schengen travel and domestic travel, there is no passport control. |

Do I need a visa to transit through Germany? Berlin->Frankfurt flight within Schengen, thus most likely you'd have to enter Schengen part of the airport. Which AFAIK requires transfer visa. |

Getting to Petra from Amman in Jordan Of course taxis aren't cheapest way of travel if you're traveling alone. Sharing a taxi between 4 people OTOH is quite affordable alternative. |

Getting to Petra from Amman in Jordan Amman hasn't got Streetview, but it has got satelite view: goo.gl/maps/U94r2 that looks like a bus station to me. As for taxi, I didn't mean taxi from Petra to Amman, but taxi from Petra to Wadi Rum. Still a bit of a ride (115km). Petra City as you call it is a small town called Wadi Musa. |

Where can I go by boat from Amsterdam? @Patrick: sorry, I'm not from A'dam, I'm in A'dam. And I'm not into canal boating. Anyway, the Netherlands have 6000km of waterways. There are numerous books on the subject. For example: amazon.co.uk/dp/0983284121 amazon.co.uk/dp/184623185X amazon.co.uk/dp/0852889763 |

Where can I go by boat from Amsterdam? This question is to broad, given that you can pretty much travel whole of the Netherlands and great part of neighboring countries by boat. Be more specific about the trip you're looking for. |

What does it take to make my car fully compliant with all EU countries? @Dirty-flow: it's about they rules about using warning triangles on highway, you have to put one waaaaay back, and another one close to the car. |
