Many years ago I travelled for IT consulting to a large global industrial company's regional office in Karachi, Pakistan. 2 days after I got there Bin Laden attacked a US Embassy, sadly killing Americans. With "Death to America" and burning of American flags a common theme amongst AK-47 carrying locals, it was touch and go for me on some days travelling to the office. As a white Australian guy who looks just like any American, I can assure you that a change of underpants was required multiple times. One night dozens of cruise missiles flew over my head launched from US Navy warships as they targeted Bin Laden in Afghanistan. We had an armed guard with an AK standing outside our office guarding us the entire time I was there 'just in case', not that it made me feel any safer! Thank god I lived to tell the tale.

I remember my flight was once delayed, then next one was cancelled until next morning so I went to McDonalds (don't judge) and met a guy who turned out to be driving from Berlin airport to our hometown in Szczecin, Poland. Few years later I got a job at the company he was HR director for and we are friends ever since :) and that airport thing happened in 2014 😁

Crazy - but awesome story. I have been watching your videos for over a year now but had to reach back into your older posts to see this one. I have to say Taylor, it's obvious that you are very intelligent, and I'm sure your business background and client relations have help you develop your skills, but I feel like I must compliment you. Your story telling, and your pace, ( yes I'm sure some of this comes through your edit) they are second to none. I'm sure it also has something to do with the fact that you present as quite an extrovert and are obviously a hard worker, but it's no surprise that you are so very good - an as a result so successful- at what you're doing. Congratulations, I really enjoy your content.

Wow! What a funny story. That reminds me of something that happened to my mom years back. It was around Christmas and she was desperately trying to get back home to Chicago. She got stuck in an airport and all of the flights were full or delayed or whatever. She was pleading with an airline employee when a very nice man approached her. He was part of a band that also had gotten stranded, and they had rented a van to drive to Milwaukee. They offered to stop in Chicago and drop her off! She couldn't believe it! The whole way they just talked and the band played some songs. Anyways, she made it home just in time for Chrismas to see me. My parents had accidentally forgotten me at home while we were heading to Paris for vacation.

Okay, my travel "day" from hell was to go see our mutual alma mater lose to Kansas in the first round of March Madness in 2018. Last time Penn made the tourney was my freshman year and I had a physics midterm during the game, so I wasn't breaking free of Philly for that, and I was in my last semester of business school so I figured this would really be my only shot to go see Penn play in March Madness. Got tickets through the Penn Athletics ticket lottery, booked my flight and hotel, and figured I was good. Had our a client meeting for our capstone consulting project (I was team lead) in Harlem a few hours before my flight, after which I was planning to head straight to LaGuardia. The game was in Wichita, which only has flights to/from hubs (and NY wasn't one of them), so I was flying there on American via Dallas...but my plane got delayed for a maintenance issue which would have made me miss my connection, so I would have been stuck in Dallas overnight and may not have made the 12:00 game the next day if there were any issues in the morning, so I needed to rebook. Only options American could give me were to get to Tulsa, Kansas City, or Manhattan (the Kansas one, not the one I was in at the time...). Took the KC option, since that would give me the shortest drive, but it also meant I had to get to the airport like an hour earlier so I had to politely excuse myself from my meeting, leave the rest of my team to finish what they were working on, and hail a cab on 125th Street while simultaneously on the phone booking my rental car in KC (eventually had to get an Uber instead). So I rush to LGA to fly to Charlotte, then on to KC, where I had to pick up my rental car at 11PM and drive 3 hours to get to my hotel in Wichita. Dinner at the Charlotte Airport Chick Fil-A was the absolute highlight of the day. Got a few hours of sleep when I got to my hotel, went to the game at noon (hey, we were competitive for a good bit of the first half!), got a nice steak for dinner, and went back to my hotel to catch a nap before heading to the airport for my super early flight the next morning (I literally got there before TSA opened). Fortunately got home without any further incident, but I really should have expected some crazy shenanigans with the game being on the Ides of March...

I love your energy and the way you tell these stories! Not a travel day at work but it happen during a trek in mid Himalayas. We, meaning me and my friends, reach there, it's snowing(we were in the lower Himalayas for the start of the trek) nothing unusual....until a few later when we find out that it has been snowing a ton in the mid Himalayas. Turns out our trek organizers had to cancel the entire trek for the season because the snow was 8-10 ft deep!. By this time, our basecamp was full with snow too. Roads were too slippery for cars which meant that we had limited resources and the temperature was too low for water to be liquid. So now we are at the basecamp, stuck with limited food and water for 3 days. But it was the best 3 days of my life. It was amazing. I had never seen so many stars at once and the moonrise was absolutely gorgeous. But, what I loved the most was the disconnect from everything. We were so high in mountains that there were no signals and no electricity. That's when I coined the statement - "being disconnected in this connected world is a luxury". Words to think over, I will leave you now after this long ass comment. Have a good day and looking forward to your next vid. Cheers!

worst travel story was i was flying home (NYC area) for winter break during college. Bad snowstorm hit the area so we circled in the air hoping it would pass. it didnt so we had to land in Norfolk, Va at midnight. All the closest hotels were booked for a college basketball tournament and the nearest ones were an hour away. So instead of driving an hour to a hotel, sleeping for maybe 2 hours, driving an hour back to make it to my rescheduled 6am flight the next morning..I slept in the starbucks in the airport with a few other college aged kids. Cute girl looked at me and said "you're my travel buddy" and i just said ok lmao. We watched a movie on my laptop in starbucks together and she introduced me to the morningbrew newsletter which i read daily still. Maybe she'll see this lol

I wouldn't say it's too crazy but more inconvenient. When I was travelling to Europe 5 years ago I originally was meant to go from Sydney Airport (Australia) to Dohar and then to Zagreb (Croatia), ended up having multiple flight delays and refunds offered. In the end of it I ended up going from Sydeny Airport to Queensland Airport (Also in Australia) then had to stay a night there (got no sleep had a group of party go'ers next door in the hotel, which hotel staff didn't stop) Then the next day came and I flew from Queensland back to Sydeny and then to Dohar and then to Zagreb. I ended up not sleeping for like 2 days and slept for around 24hrs once getting to my apartment in a town in Croatia which was a futhur 5 hours on a bus from Zagreb. So annoying to say the least but 100% worth it in the end.

Here's another crazy travel story. My parents were flying back from New Zealand in Dec 98. The 12 hr flight from NZ to LA was fine, but then they pretty much immediately jumped on another 5 hr flight from LA to IN (I was returning with them too, but I flew on to DC with a head cold that had my head feeling like it was going to burst on the plane). Indy was having a bit of a blizzard they day they are flying in so eventually their plane is in a holding pattern trying to decide if they can land or if they'll have to go to St Louis. They do manage to land, but its the last flight in, and snow plows had to plow a path to get the airplane to the airport. But the fun was only beginning. They had scheduled a car service, but because of the blizzard, they weren't coming out. They eventually manage to get a taxi to take them and some other people home. What would normally take 45 minutes ends up taking hours before they get almost, but not quite, home. The road they live on is unplowed, with a two feet plus of snow and slopes downhill, so the taxi leaves them, and their luggage at the corner of the street since he'll never make it down the street and out. They try, but can't haul their luggage through the snow so they trudge down the street, through the snow, in the blizzard and finally get to their house. They tried to drive their car out, but they can't get it out of the garage as the snow is so high. So eventually they take their big snowblower and cut a path all the way back to the corner, and with one of them driving the snow blower, the other dragging the luggage, they finally make it all the way home. But hey, at least New Zealand was really cool! 🙂

Boy do I got a travel story. It’s long, but long story short, land in Denver at 7pm to meet some buddies in Breckinridge to ski, get my Ford Fiesta rental car, drive up i70, at Loveland pass the highway is closed, it’s snowing, I’m in a 2wd car, stopped on the highway, get out to see my tire has a bubble in the front side wall, change 2 tires (switched back wheel to front wheel because didn’t want the donut spare on the front wheel drive, so donut was on back) in 25 degree icy snowy weather, highway won’t open for the night so everyone drives back to Denver for the night, I didn’t wanna pay for a hotel so I bundle up in my ski gear to sleep in the car, Loveland pass is also closed, then at 12:30 I say screw it im driving up Loveland and not stopping, rocket up Loveland pass in snowy weather with my 2wd fiesta, make it to the top, get to my final destination at 1:30am, ski that morning 🤌🏻🍻 And that’s my greatest travel story till the day I die

Reminds me of the time I was a tourist in NYC and had travelled 30 minutes to eat at this legendary pizzeria, only to find out that you could only order by the pie, not by the slice. Not wanting to pay for a whole pie I couldn’t eat by myself, I was in a dilemma! But when 2 other tourists my age showed up and asked if I could take their picture out front of the famous restuarant, I asked if they wouldn’t mind me joining in with them for lunch to split a pizza. Once of the coolest and most memorable meals I’ve ever shared :)

i was supposed to travel to the Netherlands to meet my friend who moved there just a few months before. we are a group of three and always do city breaks together. The other girl in the group lives in a different city so it's me travelling from city A, the other one from city B to get together all three of us in Amsterdam. And ofc they know me and begged me to be at the airport 2h before the flight departs (not 30 minutes like I do) and i'm a good friend and I am actually in the airport f***** 2 hours earlier. ofc I get bored and I put on my headphones and forget about the world just watching Rafael Nadal in all his glory. And I successfully missed my flight.. Called the girls, tell them I'm stupid, they all agree hahaha and at this point I'm out of energy I dont want to go anymore I'm basically done. But no, they had me travelling by train to Bucharest overnight to catch another flight to Amsterdam. And one thing about trains in Romania is that THEY ARE ABSOLUT SHIIEEETTT. So here I am about 30h later in Amsterdam. What should have taken 3h tops, took 30 and LOTS of discomfort in that train. that's long story short, but it was memorable. I'll NEVER be this early in the airport ever again haha

Hey Taylor. Had to give this a lot of thought but I have to say that I never really ever had any true " days from hell" while on a business trip. To be honest most of my trips were pretty damn awesome! However, I did have a day from hell when I was coming home from vacay once. After a nice long weekend in Miami, my flight was delayed for several hours due to bad weather. No big deal right? Gets better. Then the flight back to Newark gets caught in bad weather. Thanks to all the turbulence, some of the passengers starting getting ill. Things got so bad that the flight had to be diverted to Philly. Waited on the plane for a hour and half before finally leaving and landing in Newark. What should have been a 3.5 trip turned into an 11 hour odyssey!😀😀😀😀😀😀

Not sure why the algorithm popped this up for me, but I like it. Anyway my story starts as a family vacation flight back to Philly, my wife is from there. We live in Montana now. So we are waiting to board the plane, early morning. But, the plane is broken and needs parts that have to be flown in from somewhere else and fixed. So we wait. So I call the car rental people in Philly to tell them we will be delayed. They say, what car rental? Keep in mind my sister and her family were also traveling to Philly on a different flight so they were already on their way at this point and I was the one with the van rented. Anyway, the car rental place says "we can't help you, bye". So I go to the car rental stands at our airport and randomly pick one and tell them my story. They take pity on a fellow Montanan and hook me up, far more than I realize at the point. So we wait and wait and wait, with a 8 year old and a 12 year old, who were doing great. We wait some more. Finally at 3 PM, mind you this started at 6 AM. We get on the plane. We wait on the plane. Finally like at 3:45 PM we hit the air. It is a 2 1/2 hour flight to Minneapolis. We get there and guess what there are no more flights to Philly that day. And it is late. But they put us on the earliest flight in the morning 5:45 AM. So we spend the night in MSP. We ended up sleeping on the benches of some bar. We did not know about the transit area. So we get to Philly FINALLY around noon. Go to the car rental place and they are treating us like royalty. It was weird. We got this top of the line van with all the gadgets. As we were driving away my wife looked at the paperwork and the guys in Montana had put us under a major corporation as executives. So we got treated real nice. We had rented a house down a the Jersy shore and it was a wonderful vacation with lots of great memories and everytime we fly through MSP we remember romping around that airport at 3 AM chasing the mice with the kids.

I made the mistake of doing the Cliff Walk without bringing water or a snack, and I wore myself out, The Cliff Walk is exhausting and consists of r😅ugh terrain. I took it way too far.

I absolutely loved the whole video! Such a good ending story. Well first let me acknowledge that every US airport has horrible organisation w tsa and all the security checks. Here in Europe at most airports,.not the london and paris though, we never wait more than 10min for security and 10 min for check in, which is why I arrive 80min before departure to my airport max. My American friends hate me for this they are always stressed out when it comes to flying 🙃 !! I really enjoyed how the story unravelled and how you managed to make such an inconvenience into an experience. I always try to make an airport delay into an opportunity for fun! Glad u had such a good time!

I love this, it’s like an Uber Breakfast Club! I went to Italy for my honeymoon and we took a red eye out of JFK. As soon as I got on the plane, I took a prescription sleeping pill and was passed out by the time boarding had finished. I woke up after two hours and saw we were still on the ground. Apparently the baggage truck crashed into our plane and they couldn’t get the door closed. They couldn’t fix it and ended up having to cancel our flight. I had to get off the plane, rebook our flight and get to a hotel, all while on Ambien. Trying to stay awake through it all was so hard, but my husband was a champ and I learned a valuable lesson that day - don’t take a sleeping pill on a plane until AFTER the plane takes off.

My flight to Tokyo for some odd reason was flying from Singapore to Jakarta (?? Should have been a red flag) - Jakarta to Haneda airport. I got to Jakarta and realised that there is no flight to Haneda. The airline cancelled the route and apparently informed me over email. The odd bit was, if it was cancelled why was I allowed to board. Anyway after a lot of negotiations and to my pleasant surprise. I got on a flight that night at 1 am that night to Kuala Lumpur and then flew to Japan the next morning. However the story does not end there because my return flight was from Tokyo to Jakarta via Kuala Lumpur and not to Singapore. When I flew into Kuala Lumpur and "missed" and connection before booking a one way flight to Singapore

In year 1 of our marriage, I was offered a job in a different state, so my wife and I took turns visiting each other every 2-3 weeks. I always flew Southwest, because it was cheap, and I could take the last flight home (~9pm arrival) so I could spend as much time as possible with my wife. Unfortunately, for the third trip in a row, my flight was delayed by 2 hours. This wasn't too bad by itself, but SJC essentially shuts down after 10pm and this was pre-Uber/Lyft. Normally, I would just have a friend pick me up, but I didn't want to do that to someone at midnight on a Sunday, so I ordered a Super Shuttle...and this is where it gets fun....It took me 30 minutes to find the correct shuttle, because they weren't parked in their designated location. Driver says we're waiting for a couple more passengers, so we wait...and wait...and wait. All of the sudden he jumps in the car (no new passengers) and we're speeding off. I think I'm finally going home (which is just 25 minutes away), but nope, we're headed to the airport gas station because he forgot to check the tank. He's about to start filling up, but his card gets declined, so he asks to use my credit card (WTF???). I said no, so we wait another 15 minutes for his co-worker to show up to pay for gas, then speed back to the terminal to pick up another passenger. She's a student at SJSU, so it shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to get to the other side of the freeway. Cut to 40 minutes later we finally drop her off at her dorm, and I finally get home a little after 2am. To make matters worse, I have to be at work at 6am, and my car won't start because it's been idle for a week...and this all happened on April Fool's Day 😐

Cute story but really more an inconvenience than anything. Years ago I was traveling from Bay Area to Indy for Christmas and to have a surgery that my parents would help me out afterwards. The morning of the flight I go down to get something from my car, which was parked in an open garage in a fenced in apartment community, to find that its been broken into and the stereo system has been taken. I was going to take a car service to the airport, which I now have to cancel, and while I'm trying to do that, the guy shows up and since I haven't cancelled 24hrs in advance, I have to pay him. I then have to get my car over to a friends house to put in his garage, and have him rush me to the airport, as my flight is leaving soon. The actual flight was okay, but I have to connect through Chicago, in December, which is never an ideal thing. My first flight is delayed, eventually they change us to a new plane, which itself is delayed. Finally we get on, only to have to get off because they apparently broke the front window running the defroster too long in the cold temps. All this time I'm thinking about how I should just go get a car and drive to Indy, but with the weather in Chicago I decide not to. Finally I get on a plane that actually gets me to Indy, 3 hours later than I was supposed to arrive. I could have driven to Indy in that time. My luggage however had gone out on a flight that had left BEFORE mine and was arriving in Indy AFTER mine did, at least half an hour or more, and by the time they actually got it out to us, it had been at least an hour since I'd arrived. Not fun.
