Luxury Travel is not something I do very often – or maybe, at all for that matter! But Luxury Travel is something others only ever do.
Recently, I wrote a post of the The 10 Commandments of Tight Arse Travel , and I can relate to these commandments more!
But to be fair, I’ve also devised a list of 10 Commandments for Luxury Travel as a companion to the Tight Arse Ones.
These commandments are for the type of people who spare no expense and would spend in one day what I would spend in one year travelling, only staying in Luxury Resorts!
Here they are:
Luxury Travel – A not so serious version!
- Thou shalt view a baggage limit of 100 kilograms as rather unreasonable.
- Thou shalt bring a shoe arsenal that is at least equivalent to that of former Philippines First Lady, Imelda Marcos.
- Thou shalt ensure there is a new, clean, ironed outfit ready for each day one is away from their primary abode/mansion.
- Thou shalt rack up expenses on one’s credit card that are equivalent to the Gross Domestic Product of a small island nation.
- Thou shalt view that any accommodation under $2000 per night as ‘slumming it’.
- Thou shalt obtain a Dolce and Gabbana piece from every place visited in the world – even if the item is available at home.
- Thou shalt interpret ‘cattle class’ on an aeroplane as a place where ‘those poor people sit’.
- Thou shalt view that dining in the 5 Star Hotel’s award winning restaurant as representative of local cuisine.
- Thou shalt view spending $20 for bottled spring water as ‘good value. And finally:
- Thou shalt never obey the 10 Commandments of Tight Arse Travel. Ever.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed these 10 Commandments! If I’m lucky enough to score a large lottery win or score a million bucks on a game show, I might come close to obeying one of these.
If you have any others, please suggest them by leaving a comment!

Hilarious post. The other links are funny but informative as well. There is undeniably some truth to this, but luxury travel need not be only for those who have the means. A good search on the Internet will yield a whole lot of options. The most inportant thing as always is to get what you want and be satisfied for the trip you have paid for.

Yes I agree. With regards to the humour in the posts, there only has to be an element of truth for something to be funny! The closer something is to the truth, the funnier it is!
Too funny. I’m not sure anyone could truly enjoy themselves traveling this way.
Each to their own!
