One way ticket

As Pat said, I arrived in York. My first ever one-way ticket. That's a little strange, but it's less paperwork to manage as you travel :)

While we're on the subject of travel... If you are planning to visit, here are a couple of notes while they're still fresh in my mind. Customs in Manchester has been pretty nice and not as crazy as going back into the US. You will need one form, the "landing card" for non-citizens, and they should give that to you on the plane. If not, I've seen some laid out on tables on the way to passport control. Make sure you have our address and phone number handy since you'll need to write the place you're staying on the card. Also, make sure you get in the "other passports" line for passport control--not the line with the British citizens. As you leave customs in Manchester, you pick up your bags and head for the "nothing to declare" green doorway and you're home free. I assume it will be something similar in London.

From what I understand, most of their travel rules are similar to ours... 3oz. liquids in a clear quart size ziploc if you plan to have them in your carry-on. You can put whatever you want in a checked bag. The first time I flew in, they made an announcement on the plane that flying out of Manchester, you would have very limited carry-ons i.e. either a purse or a computer bag, no small suitcases... It was a weird one-time thing I heard, but you might want to check into it before you fly out if you can't check your carry-ons on the way back or stuff them into your other suitcases.
