Ungayiphepha njani imali yokubhenela, ukubiwa kwe-ID kunye nokunye
Ababhali bathanda ukucinga ukuba bakhuselekile kubuqhophololo obuthwaxa abahambi abaqhelekileyo. Kodwa ababhali ababhadulayo basesichengeni sokuhlatywa nokuqhatha nabani na ongomnye. Ngexesha lohambo oluya eNgilani kwiminyaka eliqela eyadlulayo, ndabona isibhengezo kwelinye lamaphepha aseLondon esibhengeza ipakeji yehotele kunye nokutya eYorkshire eyayikhangeleka intle kakhulu ukuba ibe yinyani.
Ukufika kwam kwidolophu yakudala yaseYork kwiintsuku ezimbalwa emva koko, ndangena kwindawo entle esembindini wedolophu yokulala ezele yimeko yamandulo kunye nolonwabo. Ngesidlo sangokuhlwa ngaloo ngokuhlwa ndakhawuleza ndaxelela umncedisi we-iweyitala ukuba ndilapho kwiphakheji ekhethekileyo ndaza ndabuza ukuba oko kwakusebenza njani ekutyeni. Ngobuso obuthe tye ngokupheleleyo wandixelela ukuba ndingakhetha nakweliphi na icala lemenyu. Ngenxa yokuba izitya ezikwicala lasekunene zazikhangeleka zithandeka ngakumbi kunezo zingasekhohlo, ndachitha iintsuku ezintathu ezizayo ndonwabile ndehla ngela cala lekhadi lokutya.
Emva koko ekuphumeni, ndanikwa imali enkulu (kwaye ibingalindelekanga) yokutyela. Ijika izidlo kwicala lasekunene lemenyu apho ingeyonxalenye yephakheji yam-ilungile-ukuba-yinyani. Kwaye ihotele ayizange ivume ukuginya iintlawulo okanye ivume ukuba yayiyimpazamo yabo. Ndaba lixhoba le-bait-and-switch yakudala, enye yezona nkohliso zakudala zokuhamba kwishishini. Kwiinyanga kamva—emva kweeleta eziya kwinkampani yam yamakhadi okuthenga ngetyala, ibhodi yabakhenkethi baseBritani naseYorkshire, kunye nentlangano yasePhoenix eseBest Western eyayithengisa ihotele eyayindiqweqwedise—ndandingekafumani mbuyekezo.
I-Bait-and-switch yenye yeenkohliso ezininzi ezenza abahambi banqwenele ukuba ngengazange balishiye ikhaya. Kwaye ubuninzi bonxibelelwano olukhawulezileyo lwenze ukuba kube lula kumagcisa kunye neearhente zokuhamba ezithandabuzekayo ukuba baxhinele abo bethu bathanda ukuhambahamba. Obunye ubuqhophololo buntsonkothe ngendlela emangalisayo.
ISebe lezoBulungisa laseCalifornia kutshanje libhengeze ukubanjwa kwe-arhente yokuhamba ye-Orange County uRalph Rendon. Igqwetha laseKhalifoniya uJerry Brown lithi: “Umrhanelwa uqweqwedise inkitha yabantu abadala ababefuna ukuya eCuba ngeenjongo zonqulo nezenkcubeko. Ubuqhophololo bujolise kumaJuda nakwaGrike amaOthodoki azama ukuhlanganisana nabantu benkolo yabo kwisiqithi seCaribbean. Emva kokuba amaxhoba angama-34 ekhuphe idipozithi enamanani amahlanu, uRendon ubhengeze ukuba uhambo lwabo lwaluvaliwe liSebe lezeMali kwaye wala ukubuyisela imali yabo. Ngokwabaphandi bakarhulumente, wasebenzisa le mali ukuqesha imoto entsha kraca iMercedes, ahlawule irenti yakhe kwaye aqeshe igqwetha loqhawulo-mtshato.
Ukuthengisa izinto zomgunyathi bobunye ubuqhetseba bokuhamba, ngakumbi kuye nabani na ondwendwela eAsia, umthombo weempahla ezininzi zomgunyathi. Kwakukho usuku kwixesha elingekude kakhulu xa i-Rolex yomgunyathi yayibubude be-chic ye-Third World Travel. Kodwa namhlanje ukunkqonkqoza kunokuba yingozi kakhulu.
UCaroline Joiner, umalathisi oyintloko weGlobal Intellectual Property Center kwiUS Chamber of Commerce uCaroline Joiner uthi: “Iiglasi zelanga, iibhegi eziphathwayo, iiDVD—yonke imveliso kuwo onke amashishini ifanele ichithwe namhlanje. Ndihlala ndixelela abantu ukuba xa imveliso yakho ingeyomgunyathi, kusenokwenzeka ukuba unophawu olungaxabisekanga kangako.
Akukho mntu uza kubulawa yibhegi yomgunyathi, wongeza uMhlanganisi. Kodwa abathengi basemngciphekweni wokuthenga iimveliso zomgunyathi ezibeka ingozi yokwenene. Phezulu kuluhlu lwakhe kukho amayeza atyunyuziweyo asikwe ngayo yonke into ukusuka kwisihluzi esingenabungozi ukuya kwioyile yemoto, ipeyinti yendlela enkulu kunye neglu. Ukwacaphula izinto zombane zomgunyathi ezineentambo ezingasebenzi kakuhle okanye iibhetri ezinokuba yingozi, kunye neshampu kunye neziqholo ezinomlinganiselo oyingozi wentsholongwane. "Ndizibonile izinto ezinje ngeentambo zovavanyo lweswekile, i-mesh yotyando olulungiswayo kwiindonga zesisu ngexesha lotyando kunye neFerrari yonke ebiyeyomgunyathi."
Kukho zonke iintlobo zorhwaphilizo lwemali, ukusuka kwiihotele ezihlawulisa iikomishoni ezigqithisileyo zokutshintsha imali kubatshintshi bemali abagqithisela amatyala okanye iingqekembe ezingasasetyenziswayo. Njengomntu obeka ubhaka oselula owenza i-tango ye-Eurail, bendihlala nditshintsha imali esitratweni ndizama ukufumana ireyithi yokutshintshiselana ephezulu. Ngexesha lolunye lwentengiselwano yentengiso emnyama, umntu oye wahamba "umzuzu" ukuguqula iidola zam kwimali yasekhaya akazange abuye. Akufuneki ukuthetha, ndaqala ukutshintsha kwii-kiosks kunye neebhanki.
“Ndandibuyele eMoscow kwiminyaka embalwa edluleyo ndaza ndabona ngolangazelelo besazama ukutsala iqhinga ‘lemali’ eRed Square,” utsho njalo umbhali wezokhenketho uRobert Reid, umbhali weLonely Planet guides to the Trans-Siberian. Uloliwe, uMbindi Merika kunye neMyanmar. “Kuthi gqi igqiza elithile kuwe lize liwise isiphako seedola—zinokuba ngaphezu kwewaka—kwaye elinye ihashe liyangena lize liyichole, lithembisa ukwabelana nawe ngayo. Ukuba uthatha isithembiso, enye i-goon iya kukulandela kwaye ifune yonke imali. Ndiyifumana intle into yokuba bacinge ukuba isengasebenza — ngelishwa inokuba iyasebenza. ”
Obunye ubuqhophololo endikhe ndalingwa bubuqhophololo yihotele engeyiyo le nto yayibhengezwa ngayo—kwaye ngamanye amaxesha akukho ndawo ikufutshane. Ndibhukishe amagumbi kwiihotele zaselwandle ebezingekho kufutshane nolwandle kunye neehotele zesikhululo seenqwelomoya ezikude ngeekhilomitha ukusuka kwizitishi. "Ingcebiso yam kukuba, yenza uphando lwakho," utshilo uBrooke Ferencsik, umphathi ophezulu wobudlelwane beendaba kwiwebhusayithi edumileyo ye-Trip Advisor. Okukhona ufunda ngakumbi ngehotele oyinikiweyo, kokukhona uya kuba ngcono.
I-flipside yaloo ngqekembe, utsho uFerencsik, ukhetha ihotele ngesiseko sendawo enkulu okanye iwebhusayithi epholileyo ngaphandle kokufunda uphononongo olunokupeyinta umfanekiso omnyama kakhulu. Abahambi abangalindelanga banokuqhathwa bangene kumagumbi anotshi nje ambalwa ngaphezulu kwehotela yeehagu, iindawo ezifana neHotele iCarter eNew York, esanda kugqwesa kuluhlu lweTripAdvisor kwiiHotele ezili-10 eziDirtiest eMelika. Umphathi kwiHotele iCarter—ongazange afune kuchazwa igama lakhe—uthe, “Siyalwazi olu ludwe. Senza Kulungile. Sisaxakekile,” wongeza ngelithi, “Kodwa sifumana ii-imeyile ezininzi zisithi ayilunganga okanye ayiyonyani okanye into enjalo.” Ke kukho indawo esembindini yehotele yasePark eLondon, apho omnye uphononongo lwe-TripAdvisor wayibiza ngokuba "yityphoid cubicle." (Umphathi jikelele wehotele akafumanekanga ukuba enze izimvo.)
Ngaphandle kokukhula okumangalisayo kokhuseleko lwesikhululo seenqwelomoya kule minyaka isixhenxe idlulileyo, ukufumana ubuqhophololo kwindawo yokukhangela ye-TSA kuseyinto enokwenzeka. Ngokuqhelekileyo lulwaphulo-mthetho lwethuba-umntu othatha isigqibo ngokukhawuleza ukuba ahluthe i-iPod okanye iselula yakho kwenye yezo zigqoko zeplastiki zikhoyo. Kodwa kukho amasela, asebenza yedwa okanye ngokulandelelana, aphila ngezikhululo zeenqwelomoya. Bema emva kwakho kumgca we-TSA kwaye bahluthe izinto kwizinto ozenzayo njengoko udlula kwisixhobo sesinyithi. Okanye, basenokuba ngaphambili-ilungu elinye leqela lithatha ngonaphakade ukudlula kwiskena ngelixa iqabane lakhe lihamba nelaptop yakho esele idlule kumatshini weX-ray.
Kubekho amatyala amaninzi apapashiweyo kulo nyaka uphelileyo apho amaxhoba akwazile ukuvula kude ikhamera kwiilaptops zabo ezibiweyo kwaye bachonge abenzi bobubi. Kodwa awunakuthembela kumamenemene azizidenge.
USteve Lott, intloko yonxibelelwano lwaseMntla Melika kuMbutho wezoThutho loMoya waMazwe ngaMazwe (IATA) ucebisa iindlela ezininzi zokunqanda ukukrazulwa kwizikhululo zeenqwelomoya. Uthi: “Ndihlala ndincoma ukuba ubeke iliso kwiibhegi zakho kunye nezinto ozithweleyo ngamaxesha onke. “Musa ukungena kwisixhobo sokujonga intsimbi phambi kokuba ibhegi yakho ingene. Ukuba ufuna ukuhlolwa okwesibini, hlala ucela iarhente ye-TSA ukuba ithathe ibhegi yakho kwibhanti kwaye ize nayo kwindawo yokuhlola. Lumka kwaye uphephe ukuphazamiseka. Kwaye ngaphambi kokuba ushiye indawo yokuhlola ye-TSA, hlala ujonga kabini ukuba izinto zakho zexabiso zikhona.
Ii-elektroniki ezixabisa kakhulu ayikuphela kwento elandelwa ngamasela. Basenokufaka epokothweni isazisi sakho ngaphandle kokwazi nokuba buthathiwe. Ukuhluza izinto abahambi abaninzi abazishiya zithe tywa kumagumbi abo ehotele—ilayisensi yokuqhuba, amatikiti enqwelo-moya, incwadi yeedilesi, idayari, iingxelo zeendleko okanye nantoni na enokuthi iqulethe ulwazi olunobuntununtunu—abasebenzi basehotele kunye nabani na ofumana ukungena kwigumbi lakho unokuqweqwedisa ngokuphumelelayo. ubuntu bakho ngemali okanye ezinye iindlela. Isisombululo esilula kukukhusela yonke into ngeenkcukacha zomntu kwigumbi elikhuselekileyo okanye isiqwenga somthwalo esitshixwayo.
Ubusela bezazisi nabo buyanda kwi-intanethi. Kulumkele ukusebenzisa ii-cybercafés okanye amaziko oshishino ehotele kutshintshiselwano lwentengiso olubandakanya amakhadi okuthenga ngetyala, kwaye ukuba unxibelelana ngeenkcukacha zemali zobuqu nge-imeyile kwikhompyuter kawonke-wonke, soloko uqinisekisa ukuba uphumile kwinkqubo yakho ye-imeyile ngaphambi kokuba uyishiye ikhompyutha.
Obona buqhetseba bowonakalisayo ngokwemali yenye yezona zinto zicaphukisayo-imali yokuchithela iholide edume kakubi-loo ntlawulo eyongezelelweyo (ngokuqhelekileyo i-$20 ukuya kwi-30 yeedola) ethi ezinye iihotele zodidi ziyongezele ilungelo lokusebenzisa izinto ezifanele simahla okanye ekungafane kwenzeke ukuba sizisebenzise. . Nangona kungekho mntu uqinisekileyo ukuba ngubani owasungula umrhumo wokuphumla, uhlala udibaniswa neHawaii kunye neehotele zayo ezinxweme ezilwandle.
“Yindlela elula yokuba iihotele zifumane ingeniso eyongezelelweyo kubaphulaphuli abathinjiweyo,” utshilo u-Alex Salkever, umseki kunye nomhleli weendaba zokuhamba zeHawaiirama kunye nophononongo lwewebhusayithi. Nje ukuba ufikelele kwidesika engaphambili, akufani nokuba ungajika uhambe. Ingxaki, utsho uSalkever, ziihotele ezingazixeliyo iifizi zazo zokuchithela iiholide ngaphambili ngexesha lenkqubo yokubhukisha. “Ezimbalwa zizivumelwano ezilungileyo,” uyongezelela. “Enye indawo ekuchithelwa kuyo iiholide ibonelela ngokutya kwabantwana simahla njengenxalenye yemali ekuchithelwa kuyo iiholide kwaye oko kundenza ndifumane inzuzo. Uninzi, nangona kunjalo, luqhanqalazo. ”
I-Cyberspace igcwele imikhonyovu yokuhamba. Kanye kobu busika budlulileyo, abafundi bekholeji yaseSan Diego-abaceba uhambo lwamavolontiya ehlotyeni ukuya kufundisa isiNgesi kwiinkedama eNtshona Afrika-bathenge amatikiti abo kwi-intanethi kwiwebhusayithi ye-airfare yesaphulelo esekelwe eDelaware. Babhatala kwi-intanethi besebenzisa amakhadi abo okuthenga ngetyala, kodwa abazange balifumane itikiti le-imeyile okanye uhambo lwe-elektroniki. Ngelixa babejikeleza becela ukubuyiselwa imali, iwebhusayithi yayinyamalele ngokupheleleyo kwaye akukho mntu wayephendula kwinombolo yomnxeba yearhente yokuhamba.
“Andiqondi ukuba umntu unokuyenza njani into enje kwabanye abantu,” wakhalaza watsho omnye wabafundi kwisikhululo sikamabonwakude sasekuhlaleni, ingakumbi xa eli qumrhu lalisazi ukuba baza kwenza umsebenzi wokuzithandela “yaye thina sasingenamali. ukulahla.”
Mhlawumbi abanakuphinda bakhohlise bonke abantu ngalo lonke ixesha, kodwa abaqhatha abanolwazi bayazi ukuba kusekho abahambi abaninzi abanokuthi bahambe benyuka ubuncinci bexesha.
