Travel in city Indianapolis

A new service called Wanderift has launched a new approach to booking air travel. Travelers can join the program for a one-time fee of $500, and then pay $100 to $125 each for up to 50 airfare “tokens” per year. One token can be used for a one-way itinerary anywhere in the lower 48 states and some Caribbean points, but bookings can only be made eight days in advance or fewer.

Many American tourism marketers are well-paid. Visit California CEO Caroline Beteta recently collected more than $1.5 million in compensation. Brand USA CEO Chris Thompson recently took home over $700,000.

Airports can be harrowing places, but a friendly face at the right moment can make a world of difference.

Airports aren’t exactly a place where you’re expecting to have the time of your life, but running into a staff member who clearly loves their job and interacting with the public can turn a hassle-filled travel journey into a far more palatable experience. Conversely, come across an employee who is in a sour mood can make things feel infinitely more frustrating.

United Airlines is in its generous era, with a deal offering 13% off flights just in time for superstar Taylor Swift's return to the United States. 

It won't happen in the U.S. again until 2044.

A total solar eclipse is coming to the U.S.—but not everyone is invited. On Monday, April 8, the moon will be close enough to Earth to appear just larger than the sun as it crosses its disk, casting a shadow that will move across the planet at about 1,500 mph.

Leading up to April 8, cities in the eclipse’s path of totality prepare for an influx of tourists. But, even with some extra traffic for airports and airlines, operations likely won’t look too different.

For years, Frontier Airlines has offered ultra-low cost fares to popular vacation destinations — like Florida and Las Vegas — and charged for nearly every extra on board. Now, the airline is shifting gears a bit, exploring new “overpriced” markets and offering more luxury options to compete with some of the larger carriers.

In gearing up for the 2024 Solar Eclipse, food and beverage related businesses in destinations along its pathway have been creating celebratory drinks to mark this celestial event. These companies are developing beers and drinks to be enjoyed leading up to and around this space phenomenon.

As Americans prepare to witness the total solar eclipse on April 8, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a warning that the event could impact air travel at airports located in the path of totality.

Looking for the best places to live in the United States? What about the cheapest places to live? Niche just issued the new report, “2024 Best Places to Live in America,” which has the answers.

Passengers can expect disruption to air travel during the total solar eclipse next month, the Federal Aviation Administration warned Thursday, urging pilots to prepare as states and businesses along its path brace for an influx of tourists hoping to catch a glimpse of the rare celestial phenomenon.

Sports fans love to travel.

Wherever you go to catch the total solar eclipse on April 8, those three or four minutes of daytime darkness — no matter how spectacular — might not be enough.

Travelers flying on Alaska Airlines have access to the best Wi-Fi in the skies in the United States, according to a new study.

On April 8, parts of Indiana will experience its first total solar eclipse since August 7, 1869, and its last until September 14, 2099. Up to 600,000 eclipse chasers could arrive on April 8, many of them heading to cities like Indianapolis, Bloomington, Muncie, Richmond & Wayne County and Terre Haute.

“All hotels for the eclipse sold out months ago—you’re too late.” It’s a common refrain from people who booked their rooms months ago and want to feel good about that, but it’s inaccurate.

Even as we travel around the globe, it’s easy to forget that our planet is part of a much larger celestial dance. Sure, we mark the orbit of the Earth around the Sun each year, but nothing reminds us that we are part of something much bigger than the experience of watching the Moon slide in front of the Sun during a solar eclipse. 

Indianapolis is the most-booked destination across all of North America on Airbnb for April 8’s total solar eclipse, according to the online homestay marketplace. However, over 45% of listings on the platform are still available to book in “Circle City,” and 40% are available across the path of totality in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
