The 24 Dreamiest Airbnbs in the South of France

Air France-KLM Flying Blue has increased the cost of saver-level redemptions to Europe and beyond by approximately 20% on average, but it promises 30% more seats at the lowest saver pricing to compensate. Travel on Points first reported this devaluation.

Soaring granite peaks, glacier-carved valleys, and a myriad of geothermally-heated hot springs are just a handful of reasons that thousands of Americans venture to the Swiss Alps each year.

London has the most congested roads in Europe for the fourth year in a row, according to a new analysis.

Azamara is out with another epic world cruise itinerary — and this one is currently one of the cruise industry's longest.

Singapore has the most powerful passport in the world for 2025, claiming the top spot with more easy access than any other country.

Namia River Retreat opened last month on the banks of the Thu Bon River in Hoi An, a coastal city in central Vietnam. The tranquil setting — all 60 villas stand between the water and a palm forest — inspires the resort’s wellness program. Activities include yoga, meditation and duong sinh (an Indigenous form of tai chi) sessions and swimming in the saltwater pool; there’s also access to riverside saunas, bamboo bicycles to explore Hoi An and sunset river cruises. An indoor-outdoor spa specializes in traditional Vietnamese medicine using herbs grown on the property and in nearby gardens. The villas themselves are more indulgent than you might expect at a wellness resort. Each comes with a private pool, a sunken bathtub and an outdoor shower, while the décor is replete with local touches, from the ash-wood furniture made in nearby Da Nang to the artisan-carved wooden wall hangings and photographs depicting Vietnamese life. And for food, you can choose between two restaurants: the Fisherman, a seafood spot, and the Merchant, where the playful menu offers cocktails inspired by street food (the Hoi An Chicken Rice Com Ga features a local rum infused with rice and chicken broth) and equally nontraditional dishes like cao lau carbonara, whose sauce is made with duck egg.

Several French departments have been placed on orange alert for strong winds and a number of train lines in north-central France are affected.

When I traveled around Europe, visiting places like France, Great Britain, and the Czech Republic, several things instantly stood out about how different living in Europe was from living in the US.

Bangkok's luxury hotel scene is nothing short of spectacular, ranging from a hip Standard hotel (that you can now book with Hyatt points!) to the Rolodex of luxe brands one would expect: Four Seasons, Capella and St. Regis, among many others. Now, there's a new card in said Rolodex: The Ritz-Carlton, Bangkok.

If I told you that an all-inclusive ski vacation to The French Alps for a family of four can be cheaper than a trip to Aspen, you’d be correct to think, “prove it.” I certainly would.

To pack for a ski vacation, you’ll be faced with a mountain of gear that you’ll need to thin out by at least half. Annoyingly, snow apparel is bulky, and there’s no way around that other than investing in decent packing cubes to reduce volume. So my first tip, if you don’t have packing aids already, is to get onto Amazon and treat yourself to a set of mixed-sized compression bags. Read reviews first because price dictates the quality of zips, and there’s nothing more frustrating than a split zipper when you’re flying out the next day.

When it comes to flying, I usually just take my seat in coach.
