Unless you’re visiting a major city for your holidays, the last leg can be the worst of the whole journey. When you emerge from a busy airport, tired from your flight, the last thing you need is to try and figure out how to use local public transport.
As a result, many holidaymakers rely on hotel shuttles, taxis or rideshares for the final miles of their trip. While this is often convenient, it’s typically expensive and comes at a high carbon cost. Taking the train can be a more pleasant, affordable, and environmentally sound option. In some cases it is quicker too.
By combining rail tickets with flight bookings, passengers can take the guesswork out of this last stretch of their journey. Air-rail tickets mean you’ve got your booking in hand when you arrive and can simply head to the train station for your connection. On top of this, when booked all together, airlines will protect the passenger in case a flight delay means they miss their train.
Several European airlines already offer combined ticketing, with some even transferring luggage from plane to train for you.
Air France offers not one but two ways to combine your flight with a rail trip.
For trips that include a train within France, the Train + Air tickets are available for any international travellers, including those arriving from or going to French overseas territories. The train network in France is expansive, with connections from both Orly and Charles de Gaulle in Paris to dozens of destinations across the country.
To book these tickets, passengers simply need to enter the name of the train station as if it were an airport. The airline will organise the train booking, and tickets are delivered as a downloadable e-ticket 30 hours before the trip.
Keep in mind that your baggage will not be transferred between the plane and the train, so manual retrieval and checking in will need to be done. Orly Airport is not walkable to Massy TGV station, but the airline provides a taxi transfer between the rail station and the terminal.
For those heading to or departing from Brussels, Air&Rail offers similar perks. In this case, a combined ticket will put you in first class on the TGV INOUI, and bags will be checked at the rail station on departure. However, if you’re arriving in Paris by plane, you’ll need to get your bags yourself and drop them at the Air&Rail agency before boarding the train.
Air France states that if you miss a connection due to a delay, the airline will transfer you to the next available flight or rail service.
Italian airline ITA Airways has teamed up with AccesRail technology to offer combined air and rail tickets that cover just about all of Europe. Launched in 2023, the service allows travellers to book train tickets at both ends of

A one-day strike by workers at 13 German airports, including the Frankfurt and Munich hubs and all the country's other main destinations, has caused the cancellation of most flights on Monday 10 March.
Spring break is just around the corner, and there is a new way to save on flights. JetBlue recently announced the ‘Big, Blue, Award Travel Sale’ which provides savings and discounts for awards tickets booked with its TrueBlue frequent flyer programs. The promotion has discounted flights to popular spring break getaways such as Aruba, Bermuda, Cancun, Charleston, and Las Vegas. As an example of the potential savings, a one-way flight from New York (JFK) to Orlando (MCO) can cost as much as 17,400 points.

Air passengers in Europe enjoy some of the best consumer protections in the world. But the European Union is contemplating watering down these passenger-friendly measures, which could leave travellers out of pocket.
For Korean Air, it's out with the old and in with the new.
A traveler’s suitcase tells their story long before they get where they’re going—just ask Jennifer Coolidge’s Tanya McQuoid, whose lavender-and-orange monkey print arrival ensemble became as memorable as her final, fateful plunge. For three seasons, The White Lotus costume designer Alex Bovaird has turned the show into a mandatory primer in resort wear psychology, where every unbuttoned shirt and oversized sunhat reveals more about its wearer than their room preference. From Tanya's scene-stealing caftans (may they rest in peace) to those crisp staff uniforms that stay starched even as their wearer’s lives unravel around them, Bovaird's costumes aren't just clothes—they're spoilers with sleeves. Now, as the show trades Sicily's sun-soaked melodrama for Thailand's spiritual awakening, we caught up with the Emmy-nominated designer to discuss how she crafts the show's distinctive look, her journey from fashion industry jobs to Hollywood, and why you should never, ever pack sweatpants for a luxury vacation. Though given the show's track record, perhaps comfortable shoes for running away from trouble wouldn't hurt.

Spas, even the sheer thought of them, are supposed to be relaxing: a much-deserved break from the chaotically mundane lives we all seem to be swept up in.
Europe has many great train systems, and more and more airlines are leveraging them to expand their networks. By offering combined air and rail tickets, airlines allow customers to book both forms of transportation on a single ticket.
When people think of St. Patrick’s Day parades in the United States, places like New York City, Boston, or Chicago usually come to mind. And while New York City has the largest and oldest St. Patrick’s Day parade in the country (it was established in 1762), the second largest belongs to a city much smaller in size: Savannah.
