There has been a flurry of new, and exciting, airline routes launched over the last several months. From Icelandair’s Miami to Reykjavík route, to American Airlines’ New York City to Charleston, SC, there are new routes for every type of traveler. However, despite the new routes, some airlines have been cutting back services Avelo Airlines, a Houston-based discount carrier, recently confirmed to Travel + Leisure that it would cut back service from Connecticut's Bradley International Airport. The airline will exit its routes to Wilmington International Airport in Wilmington, NC (ILM) as well as Concord-Padgett Regional Airport in Concord, NC (USA). Both routes will end on March 30, 2025, and passengers with tickets after this date can contact the airline for rebooking. The changes come as Avelo says it will refocus their efforts on only international departures from the Bradley International Airport, and operate domestic flights from New Haven, CT at the Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN).  The airline will also end routes from Wilmington Airport (ILG) in New Castle, DE to both Concord, NC (USA) and Atlanta, GA (ATL).  All four of the routes generated low demand, according to an airline spokesperson.

Quick take: Qantas first class delivers unrivaled comfort when flying nonstop to Australia. However, the Flying Kangaroo is a hop behind the world's best and needs to take a bold leap to stay in the game.

The future is here — and on the streets of some major American cities. San Francisco has been allowing autonomous vehicles on its streets for years now, but fully driverless rides are a fairly new phenomenon. So I was eager to try out the driverless taxi service from the best-established company, Waymo One, on a recent trip to the City by the Bay.

Losing your luggage to the mysterious labyrinth of an airport baggage system is every flier's worst nightmare—especially when nobody at the airline can tell you where in the world it ended up. That's why many travelers have decided to take things into their own hands in recent years by attaching tracking devices like Apple AirTags to their checked luggage.

If Miami and Palm Beach had a love child, it would be Fort Lauderdale. Quickly shedding its image as just a spring break destination, the city is redefining itself as a place that lacks the formality of its neighbor to the north (Palm Beach), but has all the trappings of the vibrant metropolis to the south (Miami). And while Fort Lauderdale is quickly catching up on the five-star luxury-resort front, the real-estate (and therefore hotel) prices have not yet approached the levels of Palm Beach's on Worth Avenue. Fort Lauderdale lacks pomp and doesn’t take itself too seriously: It’s a place that still feels accessible thanks to an abundance of public beaches, a lack of gated communities, and a culinary scene that won’t break the bank.
