Travelers scheduled to fly into, out of, or connect through London’s normally bustling Heathrow Airport (LHR) on Friday, March 21, were in for a rude awakening.

As the busy summer travel season approaches, travelers have a new way to save time. TSA PreCheck, a security program established by the Transportation Security Administration, helps travelers zip through security lines with ease. Members are entitled to a special screening line, and don't have to remove their shoes or laptops from their bag, providing a time-saving shortcut in airport security lines. With more than 20 million members, the program has become a popular subscription for travelers.  For those looking to become members, but have previously been unable to find the time to schedule the appointment, several pop-ups in New York City this spring can provide the opportunity.  The TSA's authorized enrollment provider Telos Corporation will host two inaugural enrollment events at the concourse of Rockefeller Center, and inside the MetLife Building near Grand Central Station from March 25, 2025 through March 29, 2025.

It’s no secret that the Lower East Side is one of New York City's most vibrant neighborhoods. For decades, residents and tourists alike have flocked to it to explore its rich history, thriving restaurant scene, and cool independently-owned shops. Over the past decade, another reason to make the trip down to the LES, as us locals call it, has trickled in: a thriving wine scene. It’s become a hub of the natural wine movement not dissimilar to Paris’s 11th Arrondissement. These casual quasi-bar restaurants are fun, don’t take themselves too seriously, and are as good for a quick glass of pet nat and half dozen oysters at the bar as for a coursed out meal. Unlike Paris, where the snack menu tends to stick within the realm of cheese, charcuterie, and crusty bread, in New York the food can take center stage. You’ll find some of the city’s best bites, like an ultra savory umeboshi-infused steak tartare or 7-layer dip topped with caviar and innovative banchan, in these wine bars.
