Jersey Shore Honeymoon

Planning a Jersey Shore honeymoon instead of traveling to other destinations in the US is a good plan these days. Here’s two pieces of information that came to NewJerseyWeddingVendors.com’s way today for you to take into consideration:

1. American Airlines will charge passengers traveling on domestic flights $15 for the first piece of checked luggage, $25 for 2nd, $100 for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and $200 for the 6th. The charges are applied to your skis, golf clubs, etc. as a 2nd bag if you have one bag to check. All baggage charges are for one way, so double it even if you have round trip tickets. If all you are planning on packing are a bathing suit anda few essentials, then you’re okay with just a carry on. There’s no charge for that piece. If you pack like most of us, you’ll have at least two pieces and that’s not including the groom’s luggage! Maybe he can get away with just a carry on, but can the bride? Hmm…don’t think so…

It’s probably just a matter of time before other airlines follow AA. Do you think international flights are next?

2. A recently married couple honeymooned in Australia. The bride became ill and needed to be transported to the nearest hospital by ambulance. The ride was 5 hours; the cost was $30,000! If your insurance isn’t accepted, then you are expected to pay the cost at time of service rendered…
Before you book your honeymoon, it’s advisable to check with your health insurance carrier and don’t forget to read the fine print on your trip insurance policy…there are many exceptions to think about.

Honeymooning on the Jersey Shore can eliminate the stress that accompanies long distance travel…including the flight delays, last minute flight changes which land you in a different airport…resulting in the need to find alternative transportation in the middle of the night…or missing your flight all together…and later connections…oh the nightmare and aggravation!
