Answers to your questions

At our meeting Monday, we had some questions. Here are the answers we have received from EF to date.

Regarding out inter-China transportation: "You will be taking flights within China from city to city. We do not yet have that flight information, but I will try to find it for you ASAP. "

Regarding spending money: "We recommend around $40 per day for students who want to purchase lunch, drinks, postcards, souvenirs, and any extra museum/attraction entrances. There are ATMs in the big cities, and credit cards are accepted. Do not have them bring Check Cards or Travelers Checks – these are not accepted widely!"

Know Before You Go

There are things experienced travelers know before they leave home: what they can take with them, and what they can bring back home.

The Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) wants you to know what you can take with you on the plane. They have a website to let you know what you should know:

On the other end of the trip, the United States Customs and Border Protection wants you to know what you may bring back home with you. Here is what they want you to know before you go:
