Viajar en avión puede ser una experiencia emocionante para muchos, pero tiene sus propios desafíos y riesgos. Además, el ambiente de la aeronave y los diferentes elementos asociados con los viajes aéreos pueden provocar ansiedad entre los pasajeros. El artículo arroja luz sobre varios problemas de seguridad, lo que le ayuda a hacer que su viaje sea más seguro.
La mayoría de los accidentes suelen tener lugar durante la fase de despegue y aterrizaje del vuelo. En estas circunstancias, generalmente se pueden volar rutas de día y de noche en aviones más grandes. Puede traer una buena caída en la exposición a las fases clave del vuelo propensas a accidentes.
Los cinturones de seguridad son la mejor protección contra un choque o colisión.Evitar en su lugar para evitar que tu cuerpo y tu cabeza sean eliminados si el avión encuentra turbulencias inesperadas. En consecuencia, mantenga siempre los cinturones de seguridad fijos para esa cubierta protectora adicional.
Sin lugar a dudas, la seguridad de los pasajeros y ayudarlos en una hora de emergencia es la responsabilidad principal de los asistentes de vuelo. Por lo tanto, siempre escuche a sus asistentes de vuelo. Evite manejar las bebidas calientes por su cuenta. Puede hacer una consulta con su azafata para que ayude con los servicios. Están completamente capacitados para manejar bebidas como té y café en un pasillo ocupado en un avión en movimiento.Y obviamente, debe seguir las instrucciones indicadas por su tripulación de vuelo específicamente en una situación de emergencia, como la evacuación preventiva de emergencia.
El estado de ánimo dentro de las cabinas de los aviones suele estar presurizado. Como el aire es escaso en altitud, resultante en ausencia de oxígeno, además de que el gas presente en las cavidades de nuestro cuerpo comienza a expandirse. En esos momentos, beber en exceso puede ser bastante dañino en el vuelo. Además, puede alentarlo un acto en sistemas que se consideran fuera de lugar y podrían generar un estrés considerable. Usa reglas de moderación cuando vayas a consumir alcohol.
Viajar junto con los niños exige exigencias adicionales a los guardianes para específicos su seguridad.Por lo general, tenga a mano las cosas que requieren cumplir con los requisitos únicos de su hijo. Puede usar un sistema de retención para jóvenes para su precioso. Propuestos por la Administración Federal de Aviación, estos sistemas controlados son aptos para niños más pequeños de menos de 40 libras. Finalmente, pero de manera significativa, de ninguna manera le permite a su hijo caminar lejos de las áreas restringidas como las galeras. Por lo general, es recomendable seguir supervisando a su hijo todo el tiempo en vuelo.
Prestar atención a las restricciones de equipaje será útil para su seguridad. Ningún pasajero puede traer ningún tipo de material peligroso al vuelo a menos que lo permita la autoridad de la aerolínea.Cuando viaje en avión, use la ropa que permita la libertad de movimiento. Casi todas las restricciones son bastante buenas para cuidar las dietas dietéticas estándar de los pasajeros. Pero, si tiene alguna alergia alimentaria, quizás sea el más seguro, puede ser su propia comida. Tenga en cuenta los tipos de dispositivos electrónicos que utiliza y no puede utilizar en medio del vuelo. En caso de que no sea específico sobre las reglas, consulte a su miembro de la tripulación oa los asistentes de vuelo.Mientras tanto, muchos asistentes presentes en el avión pueden ayudar a curar una situación, pero debe ayudarlos. Cuando todo está dicho y hecho, ¡su seguridad está en sus manos!
One of the most relaxing vacations you can take right now is an ocean cruise. Many people have the belief that a cruise will cost them more than they can afford, but there are some good tips that can help you get the cruise you want at a price that fits your budget.
1: Cruise ships have set itineraries so they want their ships to be at full capacity each time they leave the port. If you schedule your cruise vacation for the off season you can save as much as 50% of the cost during peak season. Keep a close eye on last minute deals too. Many cruise lines will offer much lower prices to sell those remaining spots instead of setting sail with them unsold.
2: Take the time to look at everything a cruise package is offering you. Most of them are all inclusive meaning everything on the ship is included in one price. Yet there are many amenities that you won’t be using you are throwing your money away. Look for a cruise that only offers the items you will be likely to use.
HOW TO FIND CHEAP FLIGHTS - FLIGHT BOOKING SECRETS & BEST BOOKING SITES - HOW TO FLY CHEAP LIFEHACK
In this video I am going to show you how you can find the cheapest flights online no matter where you are going. I am going to show you my personal booking techniques and a super secret book tool you probably haven’t heard of yet which potentially can save you hundreds to thousands of dollars on your next trip. My name is Mike I am a travel vlogger youtuber and entrepreneur and in the past few months I have traveled to Bangkok, Bali, Cape Town, London, Munich all over the world. Because we travel so much, I developed a booking technique that saves us a ton of money every time we fly. In the past year I have booked almost one hundred flights online. And I’m going to share all me tricks with you today. Not only am I going to show you how to book cheap economy and coach but also how to get cheap business class and first class flights.
Using the tricks I am going to give you today you are never going to overpay for a flight ever again. So if you are wanting to save money on airline tickets or trying to put together a luxury vacation - this video is for you. So before I get started with my booking tricks I want to ask you to smash that thumbs up button for this video and subscribe to my channel. I am a daily vlogger and together with my girlfriend we travel the whole world always on the go and we have fun upbeat travel vlogs and daily vlogs.
Be sure to check them out after this video and stay subscribed to my channel there is a lot of fun content coming your way. When talking about how to fly cheap there are a few factors that you have to consider. One of them is where you are traveling from and where you are traveling to and how flexible are you with your departure airport and destination airport.
The second thing is how flexibel are you with your date of travel. The more flexibility the easier it is to find cheap airline tickets. Another key factor to finding cheap flight is actually to find the best booking sites. But really the secret to cheap flights is combining all of those factors into one magic booking strategy. If you want to fly cheap you’ve got to be smart. So as I mentioned flexibility when booking airline tickets is one of the key factors in actually succeeding in finding the cheapest flights. That in term means finding the best booking sites means finding the most flexibel booking sites. There are some good options out there like flights.google.com or kayak.com. They let you enter 3-5 departure airports and 3-5 destination airports and you can be fairly flexible on the travel date.
But for what we are looking for that is not good enough. Also many of the booking sites don’t show you all of the airfares because some of the fares are so discounted that the booking site wouldn’t get any commissions anymore. So found another secret to cheap airfare. Finding those fares that not even the booking sites have. Well I stumbled upon a website that combines all those factors into one beautiful beautiful packet and I am going to show it to you right now. So the website I want to show you guys is ITA software matrix which is actually powered by google now. So what you are going to do is go to matrix.itasoftware.com So this is the site that is going to come up and actually this whole website is pretty self explanatory but I am going to give you a quick overview. Let’s say I want to fly from Miami to Vienna.
I put in the departure Airport which is Miami and then the destination airport Vienna. No I don’t have a set travel date that I need to be in Vienna just for this example lets take the 1st May. So I will go to outbound date. 1st of May 2017 and I can say departure on this day only. So lets stick with that. And I want to fly back on lets say the 7th of May.
Down here I can pick for how many people. I’m just going to leave it at one adult. Cabin the cheapest ticket available. Although I could choose premium economy, business class or first class. Now then I can define how many stops I should have on this travel. The stops actually mean how many layovers are there going to be on this trip. I am going to leave it at no limit. So when I hit search the software takes a while because it is going through a ton of different flight routes and flight options. it takes two or three minutes just leave it be it will find the results don’t try to refresh the page or anything because you will loose the fares that you found so far.
So here we have the first results. The cheapest flight it found was $ 1,025 with TAP Portugal which flies from Miami to Vienna via Lissabon. I don’t know thats not to cheap usually I am able to book business class for that price. For economy I am sure we can do better. Lets go and tweet our settings a little bit. Now I told you the more flexibility you have the cheaper your tickets are going to be. So what I’m going to do is I am going to see what airports would be ok for me to depart from and which airport would be ok to fly to. The software actually has a great tool built right into it. If you go here and click on nearby next to Miami you can see which airports are located in a vicinity of 75 miles. No you can set that value to anything you want.
I am going to go to - let’s say - 200 miles. So right there it is showing me a ton of airports. And I am going to say Ft. Lauderdale is ok for me West Palm Beach is ok for me. Bahamas not so much. Alternatively you could just select all airports if you like. Lets give that a bash. So now you see it brought in all the airport codes right into this field here. Now lets go to the destination. Now I now Vienna in general is a very expensive airport.
So lets see what alternatives we have. Now because its Europe there are a ton of airports you could fly to and the trip from that airport to Vienna is only going to be very short. Train fares are very cheap in Europe so thats a good alternative. So just to try this out I am going to select all again and bring this to my search field. So now as I said I am fairly flexibel on this trip. I don’t have any set dates where I have to be anywhere I can still plan ahead which you also should do when you are planning a vacation. So I can say instead of search exact dates I want to see calendar of lowest fares.
So when I click on this I can say the earliest day I want to depart is May 1st and I can define the length of stay. So I said I want to stay for 7 days but I would be able to stay 7-10 days so I put in 7-10 days. Again it's going to be one adult flying. Cheapest available no limit on the stops and search this. Now this search is going to take substantially longer than the first search because now he is searching through thausands of routes and this might take up to ten minutes.
So I'm going to grab an espresso and come back. Alrighty that went faster than I though I didn't even have time to get my espresso. But now the computer has shown us a calendar of cheapest fares. And look at that - now we have a price of $612 vs. $1,025 thats a 40% thats more than 40% discount to the previous.So now I can just go and click on this airfare and It will show me which airport it actually picked out for us.
But now when I look at that in detail the price went down even a little bit more. The cheapest price we have right now is $572 that almost $500 cheaper than the regular fare we found. Now the airports its showing me is flying from Miami to FCO and FCO is actually the airport in Rom, now Rom is just a little bit too far away, I think the train ride is somewhere between 6 and 7 hours. I am not really going to want to travel that far away so lets look at the other options it shows me. Right here I found a flight for $712 from Miami to Prague and Prague is just 2 hours away from Vienna. So thats perfect. So if I book this ticket I've saved a ton of money on this flight. Now lets say the airports that you picked are too far away you can always still go back and modify your search a little bit. You can delete the airports and define airports yourself.
So you can say I want to go Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa for example. And destination airport I want Vienna, Munich, Salzburg, Prague and lets just go with that. We can increase the flexibility by a little bit. Just to get a cheaper flight. So here he seems to have found a flight for $699 lets see where thats from. Excellent so this flight is from Miami to Prague and then back again from Prague to Miami. There are still a few options you can look into. There are different flight times, there are different stop overs, there are different airlines. Just pick whatever you like most or which is the most convenient for you. And then you click on the price. Now this going to bring up a page that has the summary of all the booking details, all the flight details.
But you can't actually book your flight on this website. What you are going to have to do is either try and find the flight with these exact dates on flights.google.com, kayak.com or Expedia. You could try going to your local travel agent and booking it with them or what you can do is I have another super cool tool its a second website which is called bookwithmatrix.com. They way this works is you take your fare code which is in here. You just click anywhere on the website press cmd+a or ctrl+a on a windows computer copy everything you selected and paste it into this website. Now this is going to show you the whole flight itinerary and you can go and book this flight with priceline directly.
So once you have done that put in all your details on the booking site, book your flight and - you know what for that money that you saved on that flight invest more in your hotel or invest in food or invest in good drinks or coffee. I have a second video that goes more into detail on travel hacking.

- 20 tips and hacks on how to get good deals on hotels. I'm Chris, this is Yellow Productions. I do travel guides that are fun, informative, and entertaining. This video is part of my travel advice series, where I'm giving you advice on how to get the most bang for your buck when traveling. I've got other travel advice videos on how to get good deals on airfare and rental cars. You'll find links to those at the end, or in the description of this video. But this video is all about how to get the best bang for your buck on hotels. My first tip on how to get good deals on hotels is to be flexible.
I call this one the law of opposites, and it's essentially to go where other people aren't. And when other people aren't. If you're going to a business destination, then go when business people aren't there. Go during the weekend. If you're going to a resort destination, like Las Vegas, then go during the weekday, because everybody goes to Las Vegas on the weekend. If you're going when there aren't many visitors there, then the room rates are going to be cheaper because they aren't very full.
This also can be taken into account in a single city. For example, San Diego has a lot of business travelers, and a lot of leisure travelers. The leisure travelers all stay at the beach. The business travelers all stay in downtown. So think about when you're coming, and try to stay where people aren't. Coming on the weekend, stay in downtown, where the business people stay. If you're coming during the week, well then stay near the beach, because the business people won't be there.
Tip number two, look for new hotels. New hotels, when they've just opened, not many people know about them. And because not many people know about them, their occupancy rates are often very low when they first open. And so new hotels often offer significantly lower prices than the competition when they first open to get people to know them. You book that cheap rate, you love it, then when you come back a year later, those prices have all of a sudden gone up. So if you're searching on Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, those sorts of things, take a look for the hotels that have that new marker, to score yourself a good deal.
Tip number three, avoid the major hotel chains. Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, particularly if you're traveling internationally, and particularly if there's only one or two of those hotels in the particular city. Because Marriott is going to charge a premium when there's only one Marriott in that city. But you might say Chris, I like the chains because there's some consistency, I know what they'll be. Well my recommendation to you is to find the local chains. If you're going to Japan, for example, you'll get much better deals staying in the hotels that are run by Japan Airlines, or by ANA. They will be half the price of the big international Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt chains, and pretty much a similar quality. The only drawback to not staying in the major chains, well you won't get those reward points.
But say you're going to like Taipei, Taiwan, which is some place I often go to. The Hyatt in Taipei can be $300. But one of my favorite hotels there, a local chain in Taiwan called K Hotel, I get rooms at K Hotel for $80. I'm okay not getting the reward points and saving $220 a night. Tip number four, use your affiliations and look for coupon codes. What do I mean by affiliations? I meant things like are you a member of AAA? Are you a member of AARP? Are you a member of some company that has discounts with a particular hotel chain? Make sure you use those things.
The affiliations like AAA, and being a senior AARP, many hotel websites have little check boxes, where you can see those rates. It's always worthwhile to do that. I find the AAA rate can often be 20 to $30 cheaper than the regular rate, at almost every Marriott. They also, almost all the hotels have coupon codes that you could put in. Those coupon codes or discount codes, they're often corporate codes that are negotiated between certain companies and the hotels, but they'll also have certain discount codes for certain promotions or various weekends. You can search online for coupon codes for the major chains. But I will tell you, don't use a coupon code that you're not eligible for. If there's a coupon code that says it's only eligible for employees of IBM, and you don't work for IBM, well when you get to the hotel, they might ask you for your IBM identification, and if you don't have it, you might be stuck paying the full rack rate, which can be pretty expensive.
Of course if you do like to live on the edge, then maybe put in that coupon code and maybe the front desk people just won't ask. When you're using some of these codes or affiliations, you might find out they're not available on the days that you searched for. Many hotel websites have a flexible dates feature where you can search for days that that coupon code or affiliation rate is available. Tip number five, promotions. These are different than coupon codes and affiliations, but sometimes hotels will have promotions like stay three nights, get the fourth one free.
Where do you find these things? Well you can certainly find them on the hotel website, but you can also find them on deal aggregators like Travelzoo is a really good one for hotels. Other types of promotions you'll often find are ones that provide free breakfast, that provide resort credits, like 50 to $100 a night, for staying in the hotel, that you could use at the hotel's restaurant, or they might have promotions where you get more points, so if you're staying at Hyatts, they might have double points promotions.
Now I should point out that when you're looking at those rates related to the promotions, for example, the stay three nights, get one free, you should actually check if those rates are cheaper. Sometimes using those promotions, it's three nights and you get one free, but they increase the rate of those three nights, so that the fourth one really isn't free. So make sure you actually take a look and those promotions are actually a good deal.
Tip number six, stay for a long time, and book in advance. Why are these combined? Well, because both of these are generally discounts that many hotels offer. One is usually advanced booking discounts. You'll find many hotels provide discounts for booking 30, 60, 90 days out. You'll often find hotels will offer long stay discounts, that usually start at five or seven days. So sometimes it might be cheaper to stay at a hotel for seven days, than it is for five days, because that's when that long stay rate kicks in. If you are staying for a really long time, it might even be useful to call up the hotel, and ask them if they offer any long stay or extended stay rates. And you might say, but Chris, how do I know 90 days before whether I'm really gonna go? Me, personally, I book hotels even if there's a remote possibility that I'm going someplace.
I always book the refundable hotel rates. I never book a non-refundable hotel rate, unless it's like a rate the same day or tomorrow that I'm sure I'm gonna be going. I always book the refundable rate, so I can always cancel 'em later if I need to. Tip number seven, be creative with your searches. What do I mean about creative? I mean if you're staying at a hotel for a week, and the week looks kind of expensive, well try searching for one day at a time, just the weekend section, just the weekday section. You might find that actually making three reservations at the same hotel might be cheaper than the week long reservation, because when you make the week long reservation, it makes all the nights equivalent to the most expensive night, whereas if you book the individual ones, it might give you a cheaper rate, a cheaper rate, and then you find that one night that's super expensive, and maybe that's the one that you book with points, and you don't even pay money for that night.
Tip number eight, use multiple search engines and aggregators. It's good to use the hotel's website, but when the hotels say they have a best price guarantee, that doesn't actually that their website has the best price. What that means is that if you find a cheaper price someplace else, they'll give you the difference back of what you booked, but it doesn't mean it's always the cheapest. Some of my favorites are Kayak, Agoda and Trip Advisor. If you're going to a certain country, there might be country specific aggregators that are useful. The one for Japan that I like is Rakuten.
Oh, and make sure you're signed in when you're searching. Whether it's on the hotel website, or through the aggregator. Many of these search engines like Expedia will provide you cheaper rates if you're actually signed in. Tip number nine, don't just use the aggregators, but check the hotel's website as well. Check the hotel's website so you can find out if there's a promotion, you might find there's different rooms, there might be different availability, you might get different perks if you book directly through the hotel, so definitely don't just use the aggregators. Look at the hotel website as well. Tip number 10, get the hotel's credit card. If you're staying at a major hotel chain, Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott, they all have affiliated credit cards. If you're gonna be staying at any one of those chains a lot, get the hotel's credit card. If you have the Hilton credit cards, you can get free breakfast, late check out, just for having the credit card.
Sure, there's an annual fee that comes along with it, 80, $90, but if you stay more than a few nights at a Hilton hotel, that free breakfast benefit will easily pay for itself back. 'Cause breakfast in hotels can be really expensive. And if you use that hotel, the credit card to pay for your booking, you'll earn more points than if you just use a standard credit card to pay for your booking.
Tip number 11, use your other credit card perks. Two credit cards that have really good hotel perks are the American Express Platinum Card, and the Citi Prestige Card. The American Express Platinum Card, to get the hotel perks to work for you, you have to book through their Fine Hotels & Resorts program, and then you'll see when you book through that particular website, you'll have offers through those hotels that'll say things like oh if you stay here, and you book the Fine Hotels & Resorts rate, which is American Express Platinum affiliated, you'll get a resort credit, free breakfast, you know, a room upgrade, so take a look at those rates.
Now also, American Express Platinum provides things like Hilton Gold, and a lot of different upgrades, and different hotel programs, but you have to activate those. They don't just come automatically. When you get your Platinum Card, you actually have to go to the American Express website and activate those benefits. The Citi Prestige Card has a really great benefit which is if you stay three nights, you get the fourth night free. Now the Citi Prestige Card, you have to book those hotels through Citi Prestige, it's not just for any hotel, and it's only twice a year. But if you're staying in some really expensive hotels, then that Citi Prestige benefit can be pretty lucrative. Tip number 12, use the price match guarantee, or the best rate guarantee that I was talking about earlier.
When the hotels say they guarantee the lowest price, it doesn't really mean it, and so if you find the rates at that hotel on their website are expensive, and you find a cheaper one someplace else, well, book it through the hotel's website, take the screen shot of that other website, send it into the hotel, they will lower your rate, and then typically give you some extra benefit on top of it, to show their good faith that they promise they're gonna be cheaper. Tip number 13, keep checking the rate. So I mentioned book in advance, but just because you book 90 days in advance, doesn't mean that you never pay attention to the hotel rate again.
Every once in awhile you go back to that hotel website, and check and see if the rates got cheaper. When we were going to Zion National Park in Utah, just a couple of months ago, I booked the Springhill Suites in Zion for $300. Well, I checked it three days before, and low and behold, the rate was no longer $300, it was now $200 for the exact same room. And because I booked the changeable rate, I could just go ahead and change my reservation.
I could cancel it and rebook it, but in this case, I just clicked modify, booked into the same dates, and now it came back and it was $200 a night, instead of $300 a night. So make sure you search for what the rates are a couple days before you're going, before the cancellation deadline. Tip number 14, book a prepaid or non-refundable rate. Now I know I said earlier that I never do this, unless I'm sure I'm going and it's a couple days before. But you may find that the non-refundable or prepaid rates may be 10 to 20% cheaper. I would never advise doing this three months before, because you never know what life is gonna throw at you in three months, but if it's just a couple days, and you're pretty sure then maybe go for it.
Tip number 15, book last minute. What do I mean by last minute? I don't really mean a minute before you get to the hotel, but I mean the same day that you're going to stay. There's a lot of websites that provide unused inventory from hotels. The hotels call it unused because if it's the day of, and they have a ton of rooms available, chances are, they're not gonna get a last minute stampede that'll book all those rooms, so they often offer them at a significant discount. One good website for this is called Hotels Tonight, and then when you look at Hotels Tonight, you're searching for hotels tonight in that city. Only do this if you don't really care where you're gonna stay, and you're pretty flexible in driving around the city to a different place, 'cause you're never really gonna be sure what's actually gonna be available that night. Tip number 16, bid on a room. Priceline, famous for bidding. If you really don't care where you're gonna stay, and you're just interested in getting the cheapest rate, well then by all means, go bid on some hotels on Priceline.
There's whole guides and tips on how to use Priceline, and how to get the best rates. I'm not gonna go into that in here, 'cause that would be a topic for another video. Tip 17, be creative. If you really want to get cheap in where you're staying, then you need to be creative on where you stay. Not just at big name hotels. But look at things that maybe aren't considered hotels. For example, bed and breakfasts, booking something through Airbnb, booking a capsule hotel, if you're in Japan. Booking a hostile. Going on a overnight train that has sleeping quarters. Then you get transportation and you can sleep at the same time.
Book a day room. Some hotels provide cheaper rates if you book it for the day time. And if you're in Japan, you can get extra creative. They've got these manga cafes, which are basically cafes that you can read comic books, but you can book a overnight rate at a Manga cafe, often for like 10 to 20 bucks, as long as you're okay sleeping in a chair, and not really a bed. Tip number 18, buy gift cards. You can often find deals throughout the year where the major chains will offer their gift cards at a discount rate, often 10, maybe even 20% off. You can buy them from the hotels directly when they have these sales, but all year round, you can find people who are selling gift cards that they have. Now I don't know that I'd recommend you buy a gift card from a random person on eBay or Craigslist, but there are some gift card reselling websites, where those websites will actually guarantee that the gift card that you buy has value on it, and if it doesn't then they'll refund your money back.
So that's another way to get a good deal. And related to buying gift cards, you could also use shopping portals. Often things like Ebates, and these various shopping portals can provide discounts for booking hotels. Recently, Ebates was actually providing 10% back on Marriott reservations that were booked through Ebates. I've got two more tips to go, but before I get to my last two, I wanna ask you a question. I'm always learning and so what tips did I miss? If you've got some great advice, or some way that you save money on hotels, let me know. One of the things I love about this channel is learning from all of you. But now onto tip 19. Tip 19 is to not use your money at all, but to use points and book it with award points. When you're using award points for a booking, I will tell you to not get suckered into premium rooms. Make sure that the rates and rooms that you're booking are the standard, or the saver awards. Hilton is notorious for this, where the standard rate might be 60,000 points, but they'll be offering you premium rooms for like 200,000 points a night.
Those rooms are almost never worth it. It is worthwhile looking into the cash and points rooms, particularly with Hyatt. Sometimes the cash and points bookings can be a pretty good deal. Also pay attention to whether the hotel chain you're staying at has a, if you book a certain number of nights, you get one free. Marriott has that, where if you book four award nights, then you get the fifth night for free. Tip number 20, if you experienced an issue, let the hotel know. Hotels really don't like unhappy customers. And so if you've had a really miserable stay for some reason that's a fault of the hotel, let them know. One time I was staying in New Jersey, at this Hyatt that was there, and wow, this hotel, they gave me like two different rooms, and both of them had other people's stuff in them. It took me probably an hour to actually get to my room, one that didn't have other people's stuff in them.
I really let them know, I asked to talk to the manager. My stay wasn't free, but it ended up being half the price of what it was, and they brought me free stuff. They're like do you like tea, do you like wine? Do you want free food at the restaurant? Just let us know, we want you to be okay. I know some people that have managed to get their entire hotel stays comped, or if they booked it with award points, to get all of their points back because the hotels just weren't very good.
It's not the hotels weren't very good, but there was like staff issues, and things like that that really could've been avoided on the part of the hotel. Now that you've watched this video, you're likely gonna be staying in a hotel, so you might enjoy my video on 15 hotel room tips and hacks.

Al diseñar nuestra web, podemos necesitar publicar algún contenido solamente en algunas páginas, artículos o categorías de nuestro blog de wordpress. Las formas de abordar este problema son muy variadas y dependerá en gran parte de lo que necesitemos mostrar y de cómo queramos publicarlo, pero la solución que hoy propongo funciona en todos los casos.
Estoy seguro de que habrá un plugin que inserte lo que buscamos en las páginas que queremos, al igual que hay plugins para crear zonas de widgets que aparecerán en unas u otras páginas y artículos de nuestro blog pero hoy voy a ir a la raíz del problema y voy a explicarcómo podemos insertar un código en nuestro tema de wordpress para que solamente se muestre en las páginas, categorías o artículos que deseamos.
Se que a muchos os asusta toquetear el código del wordpress. Por eso he empezado esta serie de artículos sobre wordpress algo más técnicos primero porque creo que son útiles y segundo para que os deis cuenta que no es tan difícil y que teniendo cuidado podéis modificar cualquier diseño de WordPress para ponerlo a vuestro gusto.
Etiquetas Condicionales
El código que vamos a utilizar es lo que en el manual de WordPress llaman Conditional Tags, o traducido literalmente, Etiquetas Condicionales. Lo voy a intentar explicar de forma que se entienda: las etiquetas condicionales son funciones que nos responden un verdadero (TRUE) o falso (FALSE) cuando se colocan en el código del tema y se carga la página correspondiente.
Por ejemplo, para la página principal existe un código que se llama:
is_front_page()
Este código nos devuelve un TRUE si estamos en la página principal y un FALSE si estamos en cualquier otra.
Para los artículos del blog el código que vamos a usar es este:
is_single()
Este código funciona como el anterior, devuelve TRUE cuando lo que nos muestra es un artículo, en cualquier otro caso (incluido con las páginas) nos devuelve un FALSE.
Además este código permite añadirle más datos, de forma que si ponemos el número de identificación del artículo nos devuelve un TRUE si coincide con la página que está cargando en ese momento.
Insertando el código
Os habréis dado cuenta que con estos dos ya podemos hacer muchas cosas. Ahora viene la parte de cómo escribir el código en nuestro tema de wordpress para que funcione. Para eso usaremos un condicional en php. Y como esta última frase os habrá sonado a chino, os lo explico con un un ejemplo:
Queremos que aparezca el texto “Visita la página de Facebook de Planetahuevo y dale al me gusta” en el pie de página de un artículo que acabamos de escribir y que tiene de ID 434, en los demás, por la razón que sea no queremos que aparezca.
NOTA: esto es un ejemplo, normalmente este código se usa para poner scripts que queremos que aparezcan solamente en algunas páginas y por eso se suelen añadir al pie de página usando el footer.php.
Pues bien. Abriremos el archivo footer.php de nuestro tema de wordpress (si tu tema de wordpress no tiene uno, consigue un tema de wordpress profesional antes de seguir) y al final, justo antes de dónde pone
pondremos el siguiente código:
Visita la página de Facebook de Planetahuevo y dale al me gusta
Básicamente preguntamos con un IF (SI condicional) si la pagina que está cargando es la 434, si la respuesta es si (TRUE) entonces hace lo que viene detrás de las primeras llaves, y si no, hace lo que va detrás del else, es decir, nada. Lo de se pone para indicar que lo que hay entre medias es código PHP y por eso al texto no se le pone.
Y ya está, como veis no es nada complicado de hacer y esto lo usaremos en próximos artículos para insertar pequeñas líneas de código en nuestra web de wordpress. Si no quieres perderte nada, recuerda que puedes suscribirte a la lista de correo y a todas las redes sociales. Y si tienes alguna duda, déjame un comentario e intentaré resolverla.
