I spent 3 nights in Asia's least visited country. It also turned out to be the most expensive.

Wherever I'm headed, near or far, whether it's a two-week trip to Europe or a two-day stay down the shore, I'll always have a pair of comfortable sneakers on my feet (and maybe a second pair in my suitcase). The most comfortable sneakers can make the difference between a perfect travel day spent exploring a new city and a painful afternoon at the hotel with a foot full of blisters.

While most American cities aren’t considered easy to navigate by foot, a recent study by travel insurance experts AllClear ranked one popular Southern city as the most walkable in the country. AllClear examined topographical information for more than 240 cities around the world, taking into account average elevation and range, and assigned each city a score — and ultimately, it was New Orleans that was named the most walkable city in the U.S. and the fourth most walkable city globally.

I've stopped in 10 cruise ports, from the US to the Caribbean to the Mediterranean. I've even been to some of the busiest cruise ports in the world, such as Barcelona and Cozumel, Mexico, where I stood in long lines and shuffled through crowds to find my tour guides. 

Alaska Airlines was the most on-time carrier in North America in July in a month that saw mass flight delays due to the fallout from the CrowdStrike IT outage.

No passenger wants to get a dreaded middle seat on a plane, but turns out Americans covet views over arm room with window seats chosen as the most sought-after option.

Microsoft believes Delta has not “modernized its IT infrastructure,” which resulted in a five day-long meltdown for the carrier. 

Over the past 10 years, I've made it a goal to travel to all 50 states and each of the major national parks completely solo.

During the Olympics, I typically find myself cheering on the athletes from the comfort of my couch. I had always assumed seeing the Games in person was too expensive and logistically challenging.

Hot August nights are here. The kids go back to school soon, and many travelers’ minds are on that final summer break — Labor Day weekend, maybe — and cooler autumn days ahead.

At long last, August’s buzzed-above and powerful interstellar marvel is here. The Perseids, considered one of the brightest meteor showers of the year, could bring dozens upon dozens of shooting stars, and even vibrant fireballs, to our skies mid-month.  

Traveling not only comes with the actual monetary cost, but there are other costs to figure in when planning a vacation, and more and more, travelers are starting to consider the environmental impact of their travels. Whether through eco-tourism, choosing sustainable hotels, or just practicing more environmentally friendly practices, it’s at the forefront of many people’s minds. Transportation can be one of the most damaging environmental factors when traveling, whether by car, train, boat, or airplane. Trains are the most sustainable travel method, and boats are the worst, contrary to what most people believe.

Dial-up internet, landlines, and VHS tapes—some things are best left in the past. But with age, some things only get better. At 50 years young, Super 8—America’s trusted roadside hotel brand—has never looked or felt better and to celebrate, the brand is giving guests a chance to book a room this summer at the same rate it charged in 1974: $8.88 a night plus tax. Act fast though – only 888 nights are available at the reduced rate.
