This Packing Spreadsheet Is Going Viral — and You Can Get It for Free

"Yeah, right," I muttered while staring at a deal on Royal Caribbean's homepage last week. A countdown clock just below the promotion told me that I only had seven hours, 40 minutes and 28 seconds left to pounce on the offer before it would magically disappear.

Arguably, no one deserves to be spoiled more than Mom, and what's more special than a weekend away with daughters, sons or multiple generations, or even a solo trip? This Mother's Day, dozens of fabulous hotels and resorts in the U.S., Mexico and the Caribbean are offering experiences and packages that go far beyond the typical Mother's Day brunch (although many offer those, too!), from wine tastings to sunset yoga sessions. You might even be able to earn and burn some points while treating your mom, too.

On the shores of the blustery North Atlantic, Nova Scotia is one of Canada’s trio of Maritime Provinces. But you don’t (necessarily) need a boat to get around.

Living in the United States is not cheap—especially as prices continue to soar, from groceries to transportation to housing.

This week, The St. Regis Venice welcomed an enticing new arrival. But not the kind you might imagine. The chic hotel’s newest resident is not a Hollywood celebrity, but an ultra-exclusive Rare Cask Cognac from LOUIS XIII by Rémy Martin.

Holland America Line is turning 151 and is celebrating by offering $1 deposits, up to 45% off cruise fares, and more.

It’s easy to get lost in the glitz and glam of Miami.

Flying in business class to a faraway bucket-list destination like Bora Bora and staying in an overwater bungalow can take years of planning and saving. But it doesn’t have to. With credit card points and miles, you’ll often find some of the best deals and availability for free flights and stays within a month—or even a couple weeks—of your travel dates, making a last-minute trip to a paradise in the South Pacific a lot more realistic than it sounds.
