Refugee

[Romi]

Is it worth going and saving the refugee? there is no way to check his traits so for what I know I could end up wasting time and getting a bad colonist.

You don't need to safe the refugee, but the addition things from possible enemies.
When the event is close by (1-2 travel days) it is allways worth to take a look.

[Romi]

yeah i guess, but not seven days like in my case xD

[Canute]

Yep, seven day's to die ! :-)
If you like mod's take a look at Rim of Magic.
The Arcane mage can open portal (like magical Transport pods).
In my opinion currently the best way to travel.
