The Best and Worst Airports of 2018

By Michael Y. Park and Danielle Vito on Nov 08, 2018 08:58 am
Airports. If you’re a frequent flyer, they encapsulate both the best and worst of traveling: the majesty and mystery of yet-unconquered destinations and awe-inspiring aviation technology, and the ignominy of paying $20 at a newsstand for the world’s worst sandwich while trying to beat a gaggle of loud tourists to your gate. We love and ...

Register for and Maximize Your Extras at Choice Hotels

Why You Should Always Wear Sunscreen on a Plane

By Jordi Lippe-McGraw on Nov 08, 2018 06:00 am
For many, scoring a window seat on an airplane is cause for celebration. You not only have a built-in headrest and won’t get hit by the food cart, but you also get the best views.

American Airlines Passengers With Nut Allergies Will Soon Be Able to Pre-Board Flights

By JT Genter on Nov 07, 2018 09:00 pm
