View submission: Travel not for me anymore
That’s just it isn’t it, mega airports are now mega malls, customs are just lines and lines, the threat of terrorism is real and so airport security lines are longer than ever, theft and scams are real so luggage especially with kids is difficult let alone transport and accommodation too. Not to mention the potential delay or cancellation of flights all around.
That mental load of the airport alone is enough to irk me haha I’ve had good moments and bad moments for sure.
I def feel that as a parent simple living really means travel is now different for sure.

Kids are just now out of the house and it’s just me and the wife.
TSA pre check and Global Entry are fantastic, and we’re exploring the world.
But you’re right - with kids, a huge hassle and expense, as well as limited destinations. Not as fun and exhausting.
