Nooo. You wanna start before the plane ride so you can just not board if that’s what you want. Then ya grab a different flight with money you don’t need to go to a place you’ve never been.
Comment on If I had a time machine I'd rather go back to the beginning of my vacation and live in that loop

The very beginning? How about skipping the flight and all the hassle that comes with airports. Pro tip: Start the time loop when you wake up at the hotel instead.

Oh that’s good idea if you want to visit multiple places. If you’re doing a one month loop, that would be a good way to do it.
However, if you’re doing a one week loop instead of, you really don’t want to spend 1/7th of your time traveling.

Depends on the trip. Part of the joy of arriving is the journey you just endured, so might be worth keeping that in just for the existential exhale you get when you arrive.

Besides, I don’t have to follow the same routine every time. Sometimes I could enjoy my flight, sometimes I could skip it! The only missing element is the time machine, of course.

If you have a time machine can’t you essentially take a vacation at any resort in any time period? Why limit yourself

I guess you’re right. The main idea was to avoid coming back to work!

Can you only go to where your are now at different times or to places/times in your own past? It’s only a time machine, not a location transporter, right?
