Travel Planning

Lesson 6: Research- The Basics

Transportation

Using your number 5 then 4 Transportation preferences, try some of the basic keywords and links below. On the same piece of paper as you did the previous exercise, write the title “Transportation”. Jot down your 5 and 4 preferences and any appropriate links.

In the comments section of the Basic Questions Links Form, write down any useful information such a specific airline or rafting company. Continue searching from general to specific links. In other words, start searching for airlines and eventually find a specific flight leaving Toronto on June 4th and landing in Singapore on June 5th. Feel free to go beyond the links below to sites that more specifically suit your preferences. Share your new keywords and links with others on the discussion board.

Keywords

Travel information then the state/province or country you intend to visit; airfares; and train then the state/province or city you intend to visit.
