Does American Airlines offer shuttle bus trips to exact locations

Does American Airlines offer shuttle bus trips to exact locations?
I am booking a flight to Dallas, on Orbitz.com. It is with American Airlines, 2 weeks from now. They offer shuttle bus trips to Downtown Dallas/downtown Ft. Worth/Arlington/Irving/Galleria, all for $18. I need a bus ride to a specific address. Does anyone know if they offer rides to specific places? Does anyone have suggestions of other inexpensive options? I just need a one way ride, and I can wait 4 hours to get there, if I have to. Thank you very much!

The airline bus service will take you to downtown hotels only. You should look at booking something like Super Shuttle. They are not too expensive and they will take you to an exact address.

How good is Lufthansa airlines

How good is Lufthansa airlines?
I have a flight from Dallas,TX to Frakfurt,Germany on Friday the 19th. I've never flown Lufthansa and I was wondering is it an exceptional airline? i usually fly on Royal Jordanian to Amman, cause thats my final destination. I hear Lufthansa is much better than Royal Jordanian. But just how good is it?

Lufthansa is good. There is suitable leg room for me (I'm 6'2''), the food is simple but good, and service is excellent. I have never flown Royal Jordanian, but Lufthansa tops Air France, United, American, and numerous other major airlines.
2 :
just how good is it? STELLAR. If you are going on to Amman on RJ, you will be comparing the service; you tell me, when you come back, which you thought was better! btw, check in online if you can, might save you some time standing in line at airport; even though you have to stop at counter, there's a separate line for folks who checked in online. Guten Flug!
3 :
I flew Lufthansa to Germany two years ago. I suggest bringing your own food to snack on, theirs made my stomach super upset. It was good though, if you have a tolerant stomach (I thought I did) Their seats are nice, not too cozy with your neighbors, good foot space... Very nice.
4 :
they will take you from point A to point B, like any other airline. No fancy stuff on any carriers, unless you fly Business or First Class.
5 :
Lufthansa is a very good airline. They have modern aircraft, nice seats, good food, very nice staff and like all germans they are always punctual
6 :
Lufthansa is an excellent airline. They received 4 stars on the Skytrax rating. (http://www.airlinequality.com). You will enjoy your flight if you go with Lufthansa.

How do I get rid of jet-lag

How do I get rid of jet-lag?
I returened home two days ago from Japan and I have had the worst days ever coming back. I ate once yesterday, my stomach feels all queasy and gross, and I can't stay asleep. Coming home I took a 12 hour bus from Aomori to Narita Airport near Tokyo, then 12 hour flight from Tokyo to Dallas, then 3.5 hour flight from Dallas to Hartford, then a one hour drive home. First night home I woke up at 5am, and 2nd night I woke up at 6am. I've been going to bed at midnight, but that's only because I'm working at my church this week. Yesterday, at 6pm I wanted to crash and sleep, but that's when I was at church and I couldn't. Anything I can do to get rid of this? It massively sucks and because I work in the kitchen in the heat with this summer weather and not being able to eat, it's not a good combination. Help?

I travel insane amounts, and live in both the USA and Australia. I am almost never jet lagged since I read about this simple trick. Sunlight is the key. Set out in the sun long enough to give your body a sense of the sun moving across the sky (about an hour). This resets your internal clock. It's really that easy. Trust me you will be feeling better soon.

Taking melatonin to reduce jet lag is probably the safest and best-tested use of the hormone to date. Some of the advice below will obviously not help you THIS TIME, but I will include it anyway. Pick up the advice wherever you are in your travel schedule. When traveling east, on the day of your flight, take one dose of melatonin, as directed on the bottle, between 6 and 7 p.m. your time; you may have to take the melatonin on the plane. On the day you arrive and for the next four days, take one dose of melatonin at bedtime (between 9 and 10 p.m.) local time of where you now are. When traveling west, melatonin will not help much if you travel less than five time zones to the west. For distances, on the day you arrive, take one dose of melatonin at local time bedtime and continue to do so for the next four days. If you wake up before 4 a.m., go ahead and take a little more melatonin (one or one-half dose) so you can get a complete night's sleep. Try to get "fast-acting" melatonin (it will say this on the label), or if you know from experience that the effects will not wear off before you need to be up. And, if you're traveling further west in less than four days' time, take melatonin at bedtime the night before leaving. Then repeat the whole schedule again at your new location.

Been there, done that ! You're getting there. It's daytime there, and nighttime here and you came back with the Sun shining all the way, and couldn't move around much, and slept and awoke to movies playing, and the sound and compression were constant. Your body went through alot, and you need to just take it easy and let your body (not your plans) tell you what to do next. I found that walking around my neighborhood with a bottle of gatorade helped. It was a weird feeling, but I did it anyway.

If I fly on a private airline

If I fly on a private airline?
The flight from Dallas, Tx to Bordeaux, France usually takes about 8-9.5 hours if I travel commercially, if I decided to fly on a personal jet how much time will I knock if any? Total time?

45 mintues to 1 hr.
2 :
The jet might actually take longer due to passengers with huge dense heads thinking it's cool to talk about flying on a personal jet.
3 :
Depending on what type of aircraft you will fly in it may actually take longer the smaller biz jets don't have the range so you would probably refuel in Toronto or Montreal. Top up the tanks in Gander refuel in Iceland and then again in Scotland and then on to Bordeaux.
4 :
If you knock anytime off of this flight, it will only be the time spent checking in and boarding. Commercial jets are considerably quicker since they can fly at higher altitudes.
