How to start a new chat group in what's ap for your travelling friends




In what's app you need to get into your menu which is accessed by the three dots on the top right of the screen. I tried that from where I was and the options were status and settings. That is because you have to be in the chats group.
Then the dots come up again.

This time the options are start a new chat group.

You can do this if you are planning a group trip, such as a group holiday for a club, any kind of club, a Toastmasters speakers club, a tennis club or gardening club.

Now just invite everybody.

Who Would Say No?
Not every contact wants to be on whats app. One of my associates told me that he works in high security buildings. If you work in the police, government or military you might be banned from the social media. that is strange since Trump and HM Queen Elizabeth seem to be on social media. But I am sure they have the funds to have people vetting every move.

You can move people off the list after they accept if they ask to be removed.

Check in Online - good idea or not?

Problem
Do you check in online?

Answers
Depends on the airline. For example, you may wish to check in online for Ryanair because you can print your boarding pass which saves you time and money.

However, on Singapore Airlines, once you have checked in your seat is confirmed. You might want to switch seats if you are in an empty row and it suddenly fills up, but another row has empty seats. By waiting you still have the option of switching seats.

Your choice is also affected by your personality. According to Myers Briggs personality typing, judgers, a J type, like to make decisions and stick to them.  However, perceivers, a P type, (I call them procrastinators - I am a P) hate making decisions and like to keep their options open.
