التنقل

  • تطبيق طلب سيارات

    Uber

    Works in almost every city and most airports. Airports have designated rideshare pickup zones, often a walk or shuttle away from arrivals; follow the signs.

  • تطبيق طلب سيارات

    Lyft

    Main Uber competitor in most US cities; compare prices between the two apps, especially at peak times.

  • النقل العام

    City transit (OMNY, Clipper, TAP and others)

    Big cities have subways and buses; New York (OMNY) and others accept tap with a contactless card or phone and cap weekly fares (varies by city). Public transport is limited in many smaller cities.

  • سيارة أجرة

    Yellow cabs

    Hail in New York and some big city centres, or use the taxi line at airports. Metered; NYC has a flat fare between JFK and Manhattan plus surcharges and tolls.

  • القطارات

    Amtrak

    Intercity trains; most useful on the Northeast corridor (Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Washington). Book early for lower fares.

  • الحافلات

    Greyhound / FlixBus

    Cheapest long-distance option between cities; slower than flying or driving.

  • تأجير السيارات

    Car rental

    Often essential for national parks and outside big cities. Check insurance cover and toll payment options (many roads use electronic tolls billed later with fees).

  • الدراجات التشاركية

    Citi Bike / Lime

    Docked bike share in many cities (Citi Bike in New York) and dockless e-scooters and e-bikes (Lime and others) where allowed; rules vary by city.

المال والنقد

العملة: USD · United States dollar

Cards and phone payments are accepted almost everywhere; tap to pay is common. Prices on menus and shelves usually exclude sales tax, which is added at the till and varies by state and city. Keep some small bills ($1, $5) for tipping hotel staff, valets and bartenders. Choose to be charged in USD if offered your home currency.

البقشيش

Tipping is expected in the US and makes up much of many service workers' pay, as the federal tipped minimum wage is only $2.13 an hour. At sit-down restaurants 18-20% of the pre-tax bill is standard. Card terminals now often suggest tips almost everywhere, but tipping at counters is optional.

المطاعم18-20% of the pre-tax subtotal for table service; 15% if service was poor, more for excellent service. Check whether an automatic gratuity (common for groups of 6+) is already added.
المقاهي والبارات$1-2 per drink at a bar, or 18-20% on a tab. Coffee shops and counter service: optional, small tip or round up.
سيارات الأجرة وتطبيقات التوصيل15-20% for taxis and Uber or Lyft (added in the app after the ride).

رسوم الخدمة: ما الصحيح

Not usually included. Some restaurants add a 'service charge', 'kitchen fee' or 'auto gratuity' (often for groups of 6+). Legally a mandatory service charge belongs to the business, and no federal law requires it to go to the server; some states (for example Washington) require the bill to say what share goes to staff, and California requires mandatory fees to be shown on the menu. Read the bill: if a gratuity is included, you do not need to tip again. Ask staff whether the service charge goes to them if unclear.

أساليب ضغط يجب الانتباه إليها

Tablets at counters, cafés and food trucks often show preset tips of 20-30% and face you toward the screen; 'No tip' or 'Custom' is usually an option and choosing it is acceptable for counter service. Presets may be calculated on the total after tax; tipping on the pre-tax subtotal is standard. Some bills include an auto gratuity and still show a blank tip line, which leads to tipping twice. Check the bill before signing.

عبارات مفيدة

  • Could we get the check, please? Asking for the bill (US English says 'check').
  • Is gratuity included? Asking whether a tip is already on the bill.
  • Does the service charge go to the staff? Asking where a service fee goes.

آداب التعامل

  • Wait to be seated in most restaurants unless a sign says 'Please seat yourself'.
  • Tipping is part of the price at restaurants and bars; leaving nothing is seen as a complaint.
  • Small talk and friendliness with strangers and staff are normal.
  • Queue in line and do not push in.
  • The legal drinking age is 21 everywhere and ID is often checked; open alcohol in public is illegal in most places.
  • Smoking (including vaping) is banned inside restaurants and bars in most states; cannabis laws vary by state and it stays illegal federally and at airports.

  • Pickpocketing happens in crowded places like Times Square and on transit; keep phones and wallets secure.
  • Check the ride-hailing car's plate and driver name before getting in.
  • Check weather and road conditions before long drives in remote areas (deserts, mountains).
