I have flown Delta Airlines about 4 times in all. My daughter and I flew on this carrier twice in 2007 to New York's JFK and generally found the service to be mediocre for the price they charge. Delta has always been on the expensive side even with the competition form other carriers.
In 2008 I f…

NYC is a HUGE place. Most people who have never been, unless they come from Los Angeles, don't really understand the city's tremendous size. There is a ton to see and do, but unless you have a lot of time, it is worth it to spend a bit of money on taxis. Learning to use the subway and public trans…

Morningside Heights, as a lot of you probably know, is the part of NYC that Columbia University and Barnard are in, right next to Harlem. It's an awesome part of the city, and the people are honestly some of New York's friendliest. Walking through the Columbia campus is awesome, especially if you're…

I believe its slightly cheaper th…
