Guides
We publish 5 guides on the parts of a trip that cost money quietly: compensation you are owed, connectivity, insurance that pays, ground transport and somewhere to leave the bags. Each one cites its sources, states what it is not certain about, and says plainly where we have chosen not to publish a figure.
- Compensation EU261 compensation, what you are actually owed The amounts, the arrival-delay threshold, the two-limb extraordinary circumstances test, and what the July 2026 reform changed. Sourced to the regulation. Updated 2026-08-30
- Connectivity eSIM for Japan, which plan and what it costs How much data you actually need, which Japanese network a plan runs on, and how to keep your number and your two-factor codes working. Updated 2026-08-30
- Insurance Travel insurance, and the clauses claims actually turn on Why claims get refused, what a pre-existing condition means, and why the purchase date changes what you are entitled to. Updated 2026-08-30
- Ground transport Airport transfer, taxi or train, and when each is right What the premium actually buys, when the train wins outright, and the booking details that decide whether the arrival goes smoothly. Updated 2026-08-30
- Logistics Luggage storage, and the billing detail that doubles the price Calendar day versus rolling twenty-four hours, station desks versus app networks, and the failure case worth reading before you book. Updated 2026-08-30
What these have in common
Every guide here states its sources, and every one of them tells you what we could not verify. Where the honest answer is that we do not have a number yet, the page says that instead of borrowing one from a company that sells the product.
