New England’s Longest Rail Trail — That Connects 18 Towns Over 93 Miles — Just Reopened

Sleeping under the stars is one of summer’s greatest pleasures. But you don’t have to rough it to enjoy some much needed R&R in the Catskills.

My oldest son has a lot of big dreams.

Earlier this year, Air France-KLM spoke out about the challenges the airline faced in reinstating flights between Europe and China to what they were pre-pandemic. 

For many, the last full month of summer—that means August here in the United States—makes way for one more family getaway before school starts. Otherwise, you might sneak in a cheeky goodbye-to-summer barbecue; don’t get too smug when you tell everyone how much money you saved by using points and miles this season. (Or maybe do. Be a good friend. Teach them our ways of traveling with points and miles.)

At six million acres, New York’s Adirondack Park is the size of Vermont, and larger than all of New Jersey. A unique mix of state and private property that encompasses mountains, wilderness areas and lakes, the park draws more than 12 million visitors annually who want to hike, paddle, explore and more.

As I eavesdropped on a conversation at the Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois, it felt almost too cliché.

Big changes are happening at JetBlue. The Queens-based carrier recently announced it would be pausing or cutting service on two dozen routes, pulling out of seven cities entirely, expanding popular routes on the East Coast, and bringing its much-loved Mint business-class cabin to more domestic routes.

JetBlue is on the move with new flight routes, while saying goodbye to others. Ahead of the winter travel season, the airline will add a variety of new routes to popular destinations such as Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, and Phoenix. “These moves underscore JetBlue's commitment to refining its network while leveraging its award-winning experience,” the airline shared in a release announcing the news.  In the New York area, the airline will begin new service from Long Island’s MacArthur Airport (ISP), with a new daily flight to Orlando, and also service to Fort Lauderdale (FLL) and West Palm Beach (VPS) four times a week. 

JetBlue is pausing or cutting service on two dozen routes and pulling seven cities off its route map entirely as part of its latest network shakeup.

Delta is facing increasing pressure from its customers and Washington as a meltdown caused by an IT outage on Friday continues. 

My family — me, my husband, our 8- and 3-year-old daughters, and our wire-haired dog, who's 14 years young — recently took a trip to the Hamptons.

Last winter my daughter became interested in gymnastics . She watched tutorials on YouTube and practiced moves herself while I hoped her interest might wane. Instead, it intensified, and all she wanted for her sixth birthday was gymnastics lessons. The only problem was that the nearest gymnastics studio was 43 minutes from our house.
