Airplane Itinerary Question: Departure/Arrival Times, Where I sit, etc.?
It's been quite a long time since I've had the luxury of flying on a plane (I grew up travelling overseas with my parents as a child ), but it's been so long that I have no idea how it's done per se. Anyhow, the question is as follows: Depart: INDIANAPOLIS, 2:10PM Arrive: NEWARK EWR, 4:15PM Depart: NEWARK EWR, 6:25PM Arrive: ST JOHNS NFLD, 10:56PM Now with that information given, are the times presented based on the airport I arrive in, or is it a generalized time for where the person has bought the ticket from?? Like, is my wait in Newark 2 hours once I arrive before leaving to St.John's?? Next, I was told on my itinerary I could find what plane to search for to find where my seat would be.. I have googled every portion of my details and nothing has came up. Example: Flight: CO*3263 *Operated by EXPRESSJET AIRLINES INC doing business as CONTINENTAL EXPRESS Class: V Equipment: ERJ-145 Any help or kind explanations would put me at ease and be appreciated! To Renate: Yes, I do have my passport and everything is booked. However, my boyfriend up in St.John's , who lives there, booked it all, so I was still left in the dark as far as questions go because I wasn't the one on the phone booking! Hah. I'm looking very much forward to it. Thanks for the clarification also on the time! To Martian1174: Thanks a ton for that link and your answer :) Tirya: Bingo!, Thanks a ton for that link!

Hello, you have a layover in Newark for appox. 2 hours 5 minutes. This will go fast as you have to walk from one gate to the next and check in (your bags will be transferred automatically). You may want to ask the flight attendants on the first plane from Indianapolis to Newark - how to get to the gate in Newark and the gate # will be on your ticket. You need to book your seat before the flight. Call the airlines and ask if you can book the seat now for the Newark - Newfoundland part of the journey. Have you been to Newfoundland? I have been there about 20 years ago for a tourism even the Canadian Government put on and the people are wonderful. It is going to be really cold so take very warm clothes. You do have your passport right?!

Most airline websites' departure and arrival times are based on the local time of the airport you are departing from and the local time of the airport you are arriving in. Every airline also have their own seat configurations. Sometimes there are different seating configurations on the same type of aircraft. Check the specific airline's website for the seat maps, if available. For your flight: http://www.continental.com/web/en-US/content/travel/inflight/aircraft/embraerRJ145.aspx

the times are all local. So yes you have a 2h 10 m layover in Ewr. The aircraft details can be found at the airlines website.
4 :
go to continental.com & find your flight by typing in your confirmation number. From there you will have all sorts of options (change seating, times, etc...)

Here is the seating schematic for a Continental Airlines Embraer Jet 145 (ERJ-145): http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Continental_Airlines/Continental_Airlines_Embraer_ERJ-145.php

HELP First time flyer and alone
HELP First time flyer and alone?
I'm flying from Pittsburgh to Indianapolis on April 4th. And I don't know what I'm doing! I've got an expensive digital SLR camera and two lenses and also a laptop. Can I combine the two and put them into a backpack and take it on board as my personal item? I also am not sure if my suitcase will work as a carry on. Its just a simple, normal size rolling suitcase. Also, what's the order I do things in? Check in, security, ahh!! I'm freaking out about the airport, not the flight!! I could care less about take off and crap, I've flown in little puddle jumper planes, so I'm not scared about that. Its the stinkin airport! Help, please!!!

You can take the camera and laptop on board. Just follow the 10,000 foot rule. You can't use any electronic equipment below 10,000 feet. Make sure that your checked luggage (not going on the plane) is below 75lbs or they make you pay an extra fee for oversized luggage. The carry on luggage has to be small enough to fit in the overhead bin so I'd stick with a backpack or computer case to be on the safe side. You don't want to take the chance that they'll make you check your valuable stuff because your bag is too big. As far as checkin goes, you can usually do a check in online within 24 hours from your takeoff. You should have gotten a 6 digit reference number when you bought the ticket and you can go to the airline's website and do an online check in. This allows you to avoid the long line at the airport to check in. You just go to an express line, give them your luggage and your check in receipt and your done. After that, you'll go to security. They make you take off your shoes and take off any metallic objects like a belt or change in your pocket. Once your on the other side of security you're home free!

1. keep your valuables (jewellery, money, gadgets, passport, etc) within your "arms-length", means always carry near you and goes with you in the cabin, the rest can go in the suit case to the baggage. 2. keep your ticket and passport (etc. items needed for check in) ready within your reach when you enter the airport (in the hand bag or back pack). you don't want to cause long lines behind you just because you keep these items "lock up" securely on the bottom of your bag. 3. make sure everything you need by the time you enter the airport until you exit the visiting airport are ready within your "arms-length", so try to imagine what are you going to do besides preparing your ticket and passport, that should be your base to prepare the items. 4. check in at your airline's counter, give them your suitcase, keep your hand bag/back pack with you, get the check in voucher, go to the immigration (if applied in your country/state), and your ready to wait for your plane in the waiting room. the most important thing is : 1. prepare all your stuff ready 1 day before your departure. 2. leave early to the airport (give it min. 1 hour arrive at the airport before the departure time) so that you won't be rushing late, and get scolded by others who are waiting for you. don't worry, read all the signs, and ask when you need the information. good luck and safe travelling....

You're the only one that knows how you feel about each of those options. You can see your friend anytime...maybe not with all those particular activities, but still.... How often do you get to see your cousin?...how long before you'd get to see her again? Whatever you do.....Happy Birthday!
2 :
that's a decision for you to make. who truly means more to you? if i were you, i'd see my cousins who live far away because i don't get a chance to see them very often. friends are around more often and going six flags and having a sleepover is something you can always do. but still it's up to you. good luck !

Where is the outrage from PETA over the murdered scorpions in Indianapolis
Where is the outrage from PETA over the murdered scorpions in Indianapolis?
Was it really necessary to kill them? Something is wrong here. http://www.usatoday.com/travel/flights/2009-07-20-scorpion-stings-passenger_N.htm?csp=YahooModule_Travel&POE=click-refer

I guess you would be outraged until one of those damned things bites you or your family member
2 :
Mmm, spoken by someone who has never been around a scorpion, I'm guessing.
3 :
F*ck the scorpians. Sea kittens is where it's at!
4 :
Considering the fact that they're poisonous, yes.
5 :
Give them time....I would like to see someone unleash a few hundred scorpions, cockroaches, rats, mosquitoes and rattlesnakes at a PETA meeting and see what they do.
6 :
I don't think it is was necessary to kill the Scorpions. But I do think it is necessary to pythons in FL! Am I wrong?
