Yes, passenger jets are hit by lightning about once a year, and modern aircraft are built to route the strike around the cabin. Most flyers who ask whether planes get struck by lightning are really asking something else: if it happens, are we in danger? The plain answer is that lightning strikes do happen, and […]

Yes, many travelers can get a visa for Canada if they show a real trip, enough money, clean records, and clear plans to leave on time. This sounds simple. It isn’t. Canada sorts visitors by nationality, travel method, trip purpose, and personal history. Some people need a visitor visa. Some need an eTA. A few

No, duty-free shopping is usually tied to international travel, so domestic flyers normally pay regular tax-included airport prices. Most travelers hear “airport shop” and think “duty free.” The rule is narrower than that.

Yes, personal wheelchairs usually fly free, with cabin or cargo placement based on size, folding design, battery type, and aircraft space. Yes, you can fly with a wheelchair. Airlines do not treat it like an ordinary bag. A wheelchair is an assistive device, so different rules apply, and that can spare both fees and chaos

Yes, Delta-operated award seats can often be booked with Virgin Points, though price, route, season, and seat access all shift the deal. Virgin Atlantic Flying Club still gives point collectors a live path to some Delta awards. That matters because Delta’s own SkyMiles pricing can jump all over the place, while Virgin may price the

No, most U.S. passport holders need a visa or e-visa before flying to Vietnam for tourism or business. For most American travelers, the answer is simple: you’ll need approval before you board. Vietnam does not give ordinary U.S. passport holders broad visa-free entry, so showing up at the airport with only a passport is a

Yes, married couples can work as flight attendants, though base assignments, seniority, and schedules shape how often they fly together. Plenty of couples ask this for one plain reason: they love the job, they love each other, and they’d like those two parts of life to fit. The good news is that marriage itself usually
