No, there’s no need to show your passport when you travel domestically in the US, even if you are a tourist. But sometimes they ask you for an ID when you board. A passport could satisfy such need.

How would I find a job that involves travel between California and Texas?

I currently live in Ontario, CA but have family in the Dallas area and would love to find a job that involves some travel between the two places if possible. I work as an IT Manager, if that helps. Thanks!
Yes, but how do I find an IT job that specifically involves travel between the two states? I.E. has headquarters in both states, or at least main offices?

A job for an airline or other type travel business. Like a travl provider company, sometimes they are looking for IT managers.

OR you may want to look into attending a school for a stuartess or ticketing position.

I’m not sure what the best mode of travel would be. I’m trying to get from San Jose area down to Santa Ana/Aneheim. Thanks!

Bus its legal and local.
Or you could look online for a drive share where you help drive and pay for gas.
lastly you could apply to do a drive and drop for car shippers they
hire you to drive a car from your area to the area near where you want to go its a good chance there is a drive and drop car needing
transported to L.A for a couple cruising wanting their car at the port when they get off the cruise. Check with car porters.
Illegally you could hitch a ride by hitchhiking but its very dangerous
remember Dahlmer picked up his victims so did the green river killer and Ted bundy so if your a woman your not safer by hitching.
try a truck driver or moving over nighter company that might share a trip
with you so he can sleep some of the night for free you drive while he snoozes so he can return right away and do another job.
cheers

how many days did it take to travel from Nicaragua to California during the California Gold Rush?

how many days did it take to travel from Nicaragua to California during the California Gold Rush???

Sailing by ship from Central America to San Francisco would take approximately three to four months, if a ship was immediately available upon reaching the West coast of Central America.

Here is a quote from the link below: "From the East Coast, a sailing voyage around the tip of South America would take five to eight months, and cover some 18,000 nautical miles. An alternative was to sail to the Atlantic side of the Isthmus of Panama, to take canoes and mules for a week through the jungle, and then on the Pacific side, to wait for a ship sailing for San Francisco."
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Gold_Rush)

The third link below describes the route through Nicaragua and may be useful in your research. Here is a quote from that link: "With the advent of the California gold rush in 1849, Nicaragua proved a popular interoceanic shortcut. Cornelius Vanderbilt’s Atlantic and Pacific Steamship Company (APSSCo.) transported supplies and prospectors from the Atlantic, along Nicaragua’s San Juan River, then across Lake Nicaragua to the Pacific…During the Gold Rush, Vanderbilt reduced the travel time to California by establishing a new route through Nicaragua. Although many said the route was not navigable, he personally piloted a small steamboat up the San Juan river to test the route. Vanderbilt’s Nicaragua route was cheaper than Panama – he immediately slashed the prevailing fair of $600 to $400. By one recent estimate Vanderbilt’s route was 600 miles and 2 days shorter to California than through Panama, though another contemporary account related that while the Nicaragua route had the advantage, in distance, over the Panama route, of about one thousand miles; the passage from San Francisco to New York was accomplished in the shortest time by way of Panama."

What is the cheapest way to travel in California?

admin — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 15:11:38 +0000

We are planning a trip from San Diego to Santa Barbara to San Luis Obispo, then back to San Diego. We have checked amtrak and grey hound which is very expensive. Do you know of any other way to travel these routes that is also inexpensive?

The cheapest way would be to go to a local university student union and check the ride boards. See is you can put together a trip. There are UC campuses in San Diego and Santa Barbara, and there is Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo, and it should be easy to fund rides between these campuses.

if I travel to california from michigan?

admin — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 11:01:26 +0000

if I travel from california to michigan, would I need a passport? and how long would it take to get there from michigan to california?

No, you will not need a passport because both are states in the USA. You only need a passport if you are leaving and/or entering the country (even going to Canada or Mexico). How long it would take depends on a lot of things, like where in Cali are you starting from, and where in Michigan are you going. Also, are you driving or flying?

Driving would take about 36 to 40 hours depending on the route you take and the traffic and weather.

Home this helps!

Do I need my green card to travel from colorado to california?

admin — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 09:08:23 +0000

Ok so my sister’s quinceanera is in June. I lost my green card and won’t be getting it for three to six months. So my question is if I can travel from Colorado to California with just my drivers license? Thanks for all the help.

As long as you plan on going back to Colorado you should be fine. With the green card you don’t need to have it to travel to other states, but if you’re changing residences it would be wise to have it before moving.

Am i safe to travel from canada to california?

admin — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 09:26:57 +0000

with all the swine flu outbreak is it really safe to travel from canada to san diego california? whenever i do travel i tent to get run down and more susceptible to illness. We already booked these tickets in Feb and are leaving end of May. Any thoughts?

As safe as anytime. This "outbreak" is very small, just a lot of hype about it. You have a greater chance of winning the lottery than catching the swine flu There are tons of other illnesses you are more likely to get. This is likely to be all over by the end of May.

How old do you have to be to travel from England to California without a parent?

admin — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 01:02:22 +0000

Me and my best friend are thinking of going to California next year, on our own. We will be meeting one of my relatives there. We will be 16 next year. We are from England. Please help as it’s urgent. How old do you have to be to travel from England to California without a parent?

According to British Airways, once you’re 16 you’re classed as an adult on a plane. This is usually the case, as unaccompanied minors age restrictions are between the ages of 12 and 15. So you and you’re friend would be able to fly from England to California with no problems.
