I'm a Montana native. This is the single most annoying — and dangerous — thing tourists do when visiting the state.

The sheer size (it’s the sixth-largest state) and scope of Arizona make it tempting to try to explore this wonderland on a seven-day road trip around the American Southwest. But from the vastness of the Grand Canyon in its northern reaches to its gunslinging history in Tombstone near the border with Mexico, Arizona has hundreds of miles to cover.

When people refer to “big” airports, they typically think of large hubs with huge numbers of passengers transiting through. But bigger doesn’t always mean busier. The biggest airports in the world are those that occupy the highest total acreage of land. And yes, some of the biggest are also some of the world’s busiest—but not always. Some are hubs that have big hopes for future growth, while others have interesting stories behind how and why they acquired and maintain such a large footprint.

National park accommodations generally fall into a few basic categories: camping, glamping, inns or lodges, and hotels. Some national parks also come with a homier option: Airbnbs. Take Canyonlands National Park. Roughly 30 minutes outside of the well-loved desert town of Moab, Utah, Canyonlands is one national park that’s situated in close proximity to quite a few impressive Airbnbs. Sure, you could easily find a nice hotel near Canyonlands National Park, but why not pick the Canyonlands National Park Airbnb that best suits your style — from quintessential cabins, to private yurts, to large and luxurious rentals that can fit the whole family.

Flying across the world just got more affordable thanks to an Air New Zealand sale that has flights from the United States to Auckland and beyond starting at less than $1,000.

When European low-cost Corendon Airlines announced on August 23 that it would reserve the front rows of its Amsterdam-Curação flights for passengers 16-years-old or older, the news resurfaced the age-old debate about how to balance the needs of traveling families with those who are flying without kids.

With so much wilderness right on the doorstep, there's always something to do in Montana at any time of year. The state is highly in tune with the rhythms of nature, and activities vary with the weather and season.

My older sister Melanie is the sun the rest of my family orbits around. In a way, she's my family's Taylor Swift.

A disabled United States Army veteran wants "accountability" from American Airlines after he says he hurt his knee aboard a recent flight thanks to a seat that was not back in the upright position during landing.

Some visitors to Venice will have to start paying a daily tourist fee of 5 euros ($5.36) next year. The initiative covers the introduction of a new tourist flow management system to discourage day trippers on certain dates.

When packing for my vacation to Kauai, the second oldest Hawaiian island, I didn’t think I would be drinking a lot of craft beer but as soon as we settled, I learned Hawaii is home to some excellent local craft breweries.

About the time when stores start to put out their Halloween displays and Americans ponder their Halloween-season plans, America’s best mega-haunted attractions put the finishing touches on their year-round work of planning and enhancing their attractions. The haunts will soon spring to life to “scare them to death” with the latest and greatest fear-based entertainment. America Haunts, the national association for the most proven and prestigious commercial haunts, reminds the adventurous that the season goes by fast and to buy tickets in advance. There aren’t many open nights for the undead to get their fright-fill fun within the season. Most haunts fall between four to nine weekends, plus a few open weekdays, including Halloween night, Tuesday, October 31.
