If nothing interesting or plot-relevant has to happen during the travel, I have no compunctions about saying "you leave the city and after one month of travel, you reach your destination".If the travel is in a dangerous territory, I predetermine some encounters. If the PCs are powerful enough that they will certainly defeat most monsters in the area without using non-renewable resources, I may say "you leave the city and after one month of travel, during which you defeat several bands of goblins that tried to attack you, you reach your destination".When travelling is boring, I'd rather just cut it and get on with the plot, than try to make it interesting with random encounters.</blockquote>
