Trip report questions
« on: March 10, 2013, 06:27:59 PM »
Searched for this on the forums and couldn't really find any answer.

I am interesting in writing a trip report on my flights home from Zurich tomorrow and was wondering if any of you wanted to give me some advice on what to put in it, what to exclude from it, and any advice that you feel I should need for my first trip report. Thanks, greatly appreciated.

Just write it and ppl can ask questions. I'd say err in the side of over inclusion instead of under.

Just a tip- make sure you put commas,periods, and paragraphs where needed so it will be an easy read.  :)

Yes. Exactly. Some TR's are long and people tend to forgot about punctuation.
@OP- sorry if I offended you. Wasn't the purpose of it.

Of course, who would think about doing a trip report without pictures?!?!?  Hopefully will type it all up tomorrow, was busy during the flights with school work.

So I basically finished typing it up. Do I post this in the Switzerland thread or where should I post it. It's quite long, don't know if I should trim it down, how long should it be?

You can start your own thread "chucksterace Switzerland Trip Report".  It can be as long as you want...
