October is one of my favorite months in New York City. Here, you get a mix of chilly fall days and unexpectedly warm temperatures, plus the leaves change into vibrant hues of orange, yellow and red. With many schools on fall break, there are plenty of tourists in town checking out that delightful Central Park foliage (and staying at the best hotels in the area) and, for me, it's one last chance to hold onto the city before it really gets cold.

Earlier this year, I was browsing Amazon for a few last-minute carry-on essentials when I saw the Airplane Pockets tray table cover pop up as a suggested item. I had never seen such a thing, and my first thought was that it's actually pretty genius. Would this mean I never have to touch or eat off a dirty airplane tray table ever again? I turned to my fellow Condé Nast Traveler editors to see if I'd been missing out on the tray table cover trend. In a room full of frequent fliers, no one had seen or used anything like this before, but our editors were equally intrigued. I was sold. I purchased this $30 Amazon travel essential, and now, a few flights later, I will never fly without it again.

Good morning from Skift. It’s Wednesday, October 25. Here’s what you need to know about the business of travel today.

We know out-of-town fans of Taylor Swift have boosted tourism in major cities in 2023. Beyoncé has her own power to lift hotel bookings, too.

That’s according to a market impact analysis of Beyoncé on the hotel sector that CoStar’s STR released on Tuesday.

If you asked me to choose my favorite credit card, I'd be hard-pressed to pick between my current top two: the Costco Anywhere Visa® Card by Citi (see rates and fees) and the Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express.

Expedia Group laid off around 100 employees in a round of cuts that impacted its product and tech organization, Skift has learned.

Trains are my favorite mode of transportation.
