    How many people here have done/do it? What do you think?Im considering going to LA to fly a fighter jet, that is my main reason for going but while there I also wanted to go to disney and then hit up Vegas and New york the friend I was meant to be going with has recently bailed on me so Im wondering if its worth going alone.Personally I dont think disney or vegas would be much fun and spending 1500 on airfares plus 1000 on accommodation if all Im going to do is fly the fighter jet seems a bit wasteful. Im not generally the most out going person in the world, definitely not the life of the party/hit on random woman kind of guy. Although most of the time I dont have an issue talking once someone else starts, I still think it might suck a bit being on holidays alone though, especially those specific destinations.

    I've traveled alone MANY times… including trips overseas (as far as Australia).It ain't no shit.  In fact, I find it relaxing not having to worry about a tag-a-long, or feeling obliged to run my fucking mouth b/c someone else is joining me.  I feel I can travel more efficiently.Then again... I'm a "Lone Wolf" type, so my opinion is severely biased.  I deal with people enough @ my job.Cory

    I enjoy traveling by myself as well, but that is a hell of a trip to do by yourself.

    I am for the most part a loner as well and I went to Hawaii with my mum a few years ago and spent the majority of the time alone, however I nearly always had someone to eat breakfast and dinner with. I had a fairly good time in Hawaii but think it may have been better if I was travelling with another me. Im just not sure if they vegas, disney and ny thing would be fun alone.

    I live in NYC... and I am fine alone.  ;DI read a quote somewhere... I will paraphrase:  "If you make friends with yourself, you will never be alone."Cory

    If you're a guy and you exercise common sense, it's fine. Two of my female friends, both blonde, went to S. America for 6 weeks and got mugged 4 times! I went for 3 months to pretty much the same places with my (now ex) boyfriend (6'2") and no one tried it on at all.

    I've traveled to America from Australia alone 4 or 5 times.  In fact I met my fiancee over there 3 years ago and were getting married (over there) this September  ;D

    Congratulations Rookie! It must be hard work to fall in love with someone on the other side of the world.
