A British Airways plane had to circle the airport six times because its wheels got stuck after takeoff—talk about a bumpy start! Not only did this shake up travel plans for those on board, but it also meant 15 other flights were delayed or sent to different cities. Always check your flight status before heading out—travel surprises are more common than you think! #Business #Industry #TravelTips00Share

Robin Long+FollowParis’ Prettiest ‘Hood Turns Sketchy at Night?The 19th arrondissement in Paris is all artsy vibes and dreamy parks by day, but after dark? Locals say some spots get dicey—think more petty crime and sketchy energy than movie-magic. If you’re planning to stay, pick a hotel near Parc des Buttes-Chaumont or Canal de l’Ourcq for a safer, stylish experience. And if you’re out late, stick to well-lit, busy areas (La Villette is a safe bet) and keep your valuables close. Paris is stunning, but a little street smarts go a long way! #News #ParisTravel #TravelTips00Share
ashley89+FollowPadar Island: Insta vs RealityPadar Island in Indonesia looks like a dream on Instagram, but the reality? Think long lines, crowded trails, and a thousand-step climb just to snap that famous sunrise shot. The crowds are so intense, it’s hurting the island’s vibe—and its ecosystem. If you’re after peace (and Komodo dragons), Rinca Island or Pink Beach are way less hectic. Sometimes, skipping the ‘it’ spot is the real travel flex! #Travel #TravelTips #Overtourism00Share
Julie Padilla+FollowTSA’s Holiday Travel Cyber Warnings!Holiday travel hack: TSA just dropped two major cybersecurity tips for anyone glued to their phone at the airport. First, skip those public USB charging ports—hackers can sneak in malware (it’s called ‘juice jacking’). Second, avoid free public WiFi, especially for shopping or entering sensitive info. Cybercriminals are setting up fake WiFi networks everywhere—even on flights! Double-check before you connect and always use your own charger. Stay safe and don’t let your holiday get hacked! #News #TravelTips #Cybersecurity00Share
robertjones+FollowTourist Traps That Aren’t Worth Your $$$Ever felt like you paid way too much for a so-called 'must-see' spot? You’re not alone! From Navy Pier’s pricey parking to Disney’s wallet-busting tickets, some attractions just don’t live up to the hype. But don’t worry—there are gems out there! Swap Times Square for Central Park, or Bourbon Street for Frenchmen Street, and actually get your money’s worth. Save your cash for experiences that are truly unforgettable! #News #TravelTips #TouristTraps10Share
Mrs. Jessica Morgan+FollowWhy Southwest's New Seat Rule Might Cost YouHeads up if you fly Southwest: starting January 2026, plus-size travelers will have to buy an extra seat in advance, and refunds are only possible if your flight isn’t full. Before, you could get that extra seat for free at the airport. This means more upfront costs and less flexibility for everyone—so if you’re booking a trip, double-check those policies. Even if you’re not plus-size, this could mean tighter seating and less comfort for all. Travel just got a little trickier! #Business #SouthwestAirlines #TravelTips61Share
Alexandria Simmons+FollowWhen Airlines Get Disability WrongEver been stopped at the airport for something you can’t control? Former BBC editor Mark Mardell was left stranded after Turkish Airlines refused to let him fly home because he has Parkinson’s. No heads-up, just a demand for a doctor’s note at the gate. The real kicker? Another airline had zero issues. If you or someone you know travels with a medical condition, always double-check airline policies—and maybe pack a doctor’s note, just in case. Sometimes, it’s not about safety, it’s about outdated attitudes. #Business #Industry #TravelTips00Share
Nicholas Coleman+FollowWhy Cheap Flights Keep DisappearingHeads up, travel deal hunters: another budget airline, New Pacific, just called it quits—right before Thanksgiving. If you were hoping for more cheap flights, this is a bummer. The airline tried to pivot and even teased new partnerships, but rising costs and tricky routes (thanks, no-fly zones) grounded their plans. For now, fewer low-cost options means your next getaway might cost a bit more, so keep an eye on flash sales and alternative airports! #Business #Industry #TravelTips10Share
