Your Internet Consultant - The FAQs of Life Online

I also travel quite a bit on business, and it would be great if I could save some money on air fare (and learn more about my destination before I got there). What's available?

There are a couple of Usenet groups that discuss travel issues, but they're quite highly trafficked and can be difficult to read due to their volume. A better general resource for online travel information of any sort is to check the "Travel/Online-info FAQ" document. It lists a variety of interesting and useful online resources.
