How to Avoid Wi-Fi Scams While Traveling

It'll soon be easier for New York residents to swap snow for sunshine this coming winter. Starting Nov. 10, Delta Air Lines will be launching new routes from New York's Westchester County Airport (HPN) to Orlando and West Palm Beach, the carrier confirmed toTravel + Leisure on Tuesday.

To her more than one million TikTok followers, digital creator MJ Hedderman is known as "the Instagram girlfriend." It's a moniker she said she fell into in 2020 after realizing she didn't need a partner to take photos of her — she could learn to take them herself instead. 

I'm not a fan of red-eye flights, but as a travel reporter, I often take them.

I left my apartment in NYC at 9 p.m. on a Friday last month for my red-eye flight to Barcelona. It wasn't my first rodeo on a late-night, long-haul flight, and I felt totally prepared. I ate dinner beforehand and took zero naps, so I figured I'd sleep on the plane and wake up in Spain feeling rested and ready to explore without the brutal jet lag.

In the same drawer where I keep my travel adapters and portable charger, I have a foreign currency graveyard of sorts. A $5 bill from New Zealand. A £10 note from Scotland. Dozens of Canadian loonies and toonies.

Travelers heading to or from Washington, D.C., through Reagan/National Airport can expect major ground travel disruptions and delays through July 18. Trains on both the Blue and Yellow lines will suspend operations on two track segments:

According to technology solutions company Asurion, 19 million phones are lost or stolen each year, and traveling puts you at higher risk for theft. Don’t wait until it’s too late—know what to do if your phone is lost or stolen on a trip so you can recover faster, protect your identity, and not lose all those great vacation photos.

From the moment I decided to embark on a three-month journey around the Caribbean and Central America, I knew Zika was a possibility. It was impossible not to ignore the headlines. Caused by a bite from the Aedes mosquito, Zika is affecting dozens of countries and territories in Asia, Africa, and the Americas, including every single one I planned to visit. Over 400 cases have been diagnosed in the U.S. among travelers who had returned from the tropics. To top it off, there’s still no effective vaccine, so I couldn’t protect myself that way.

Jet lag—the grogginess, dehydration, and general discomfort that follows a long-haul flight, has always seemed unavoidable. Especially now, as airlines pack even more passengers into dry, pressurized cabins and decrease their average seat size. Right?

Love it or hate it, winter travel in colder climates requires some essential snow gear. That’s especially true if you’re heading to an affordable winter destination that’s on the colder side. From flasks and jackets to mittens and gloves, make winter less painful this year (no matter where you roam) with this essential winter gear for travelers.

Wondering which airports are most likely to put you behind schedule during the busy summer travel season? If you’re flying to the Boston, Chicago, New York, or San Francisco areas this summer—or even worse, connecting to another flight there—be especially wary.
