Thousands of flights cancelled across Germany due to major strike action at 13 airports

There are many great reasons to stay at independent hotels and vacation rentals. Unfortunately, the ease of earning rewards on these stays is not one of them — or so you might think. Over the years, I've enjoyed a variety of unforgettable stays and picked up several tricks to maximize my savings and rewards on them. Here's what I've learned.

There’s still time to book a low-cost spring break getaway. Frontier Airlines recently announced a new airfare sale, with deals starting at $19. Best of all, the destinations include popular getaways such as Miami, Orlando, and Las Vegas. However, travelers will need to act fast as the fare sale ends at 11:59 PM EST on March 17, 2025,  The sale is valid on nonstop flights on Tuesdays and Wednesdays between April 22, 2025 and August 18, 2025, and travelers should be aware there are several blackout dates due to peak travel times. Frontier said it has also discounted tickets for other days of the week, but the cheapest fares will be on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Travel + Leisure spotted a variety of one-way flight deals in the promotion including:

Best of all, in celebration of the new routes the airline is offering one-way fares starting at just $40, with tickets now available for purchase. The Nashville route will operate twice weekly on Fridays and Mondays.

There’s nothing quite like the thrill of scoring a $300 plane ticket that usually costs $400, or booking your trip just when fares drop after months of tracking. Finding the perfect flight deal requires time and patience, but with the new Flight Deals tool in the Expedia app, the process just got a whole lot easier. This tool analyzes more than two million flights daily, identifying fares that are at least 20 percent lower than the typical price.

Booking a last-minute international flights doesn't have to be an expensive endeavor. Virgin Atlantic recently released hundreds of flight deals starting at $390 round-trip from the United States to Europe. The deals include popular destinations such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, London, and Paris for travel from early spring through the fall of 2025. Travelers can find the deals on Virgin’s Most Popular Flights webpage, and then sorting by lowest price.
