Jamie Watson+FollowDon’t Get Stuck at TSA—3-1-1 Rule Hack!TSA just dropped a summer travel reminder: the 3-1-1 rule is your ticket to breezing through airport security. Basically, all your liquids, gels, and aerosols need to be in containers 3.4 oz or less, packed in one clear quart-sized bag—one per person. Forget this and you’ll be that person holding up the line while everyone stares. Pro tip: start with an empty bag and double-check your stuff. Trust me, it’s worth it for a stress-free trip! #TravelTips #TSA #AirportHacks #Travel10Share
Dr. Michael Henson+FollowWhy You Should Never Use the Seat PocketApparently, the seat back pocket on planes is basically a black hole for your stuff! An American Airlines pilot just spilled that if you stash anything important in there, odds are you’ll never see it again. He’s seen so many people panic at the gate after realizing their phone or wallet is gone forever. Also, would you try standing-only seats on a flight? Budget airlines might bring them in soon—lean, don’t sit! #TravelTips #Aviation #AirplaneHacks #Travel00Share
peterfoster+FollowSouthwest Bags Fee: What You Need to KnowHeads up, Southwest fans: the days of stuffing two free suitcases are over. Starting May 2025, most of us will have to shell out $35 for the first checked bag and $45 for the second. Only top-tier frequent flyers and certain credit card holders get freebies now. So, if you’re planning a big trip, pack light or join the rewards club! Looks like even Southwest is joining the baggage fee party—time to rethink that souvenir haul. #TravelTips #SouthwestAirlines #MoneyHacks #Business30Share
Arthur Booker+FollowQatar Airways Ditches Boeing 737s—Here’s WhyQatar Airways just canceled its order for 25 Boeing 737 MAX 10s, and here’s the tea: they’re doubling down on bigger planes instead. After a rocky patch with Airbus (think: grounded jets and lawsuits), Qatar’s now patched things up and is sticking with Airbus for smaller planes. The big move? They’re splurging on a record number of Boeing widebody jets for long-haul routes. For travelers, this means more comfy, newer planes on international flights! #AviationNews #TravelTips #MoneyMoves #Business41Share
peterfoster+FollowWhy That Delta Flight Skidded InEver wondered what happens when a plane’s landing gear won’t come down? A Delta flight last year had to belly-slide onto the runway because a tiny crack in a metal part kept the nose gear stuck. Turns out, a missed maintenance check years ago let the problem slip by. The good news? No one was hurt, and now all similar planes got a double-check. Lesson: even the little things (like regular checkups) can make a big difference—whether it’s planes or your own ride! #TravelTips #Aviation #LifeHacks #Business41Share
Arthur Booker+FollowUnited’s New Check-In Rule: Don’t Miss Out!Heads up, travelers! Starting June 3, United Airlines is tightening its check-in window for domestic flights—you’ll now need to check in at least 45 minutes before takeoff (up from 30). Miss it, and you’re not getting on that plane, even if you’re bag-free. United says it’s all about smoother boarding and fewer last-minute scrambles. So, if you’re flying this summer, set those alarms and give yourself extra time at the airport! #TravelTips #UnitedAirlines #SummerTravel #Business42Share
ramirezamanda+FollowWhy Everyone’s Avoiding Newark Airport RNHeads up if you’re flying this summer: Newark Airport is having a rough time. United had to cancel a big flight from Scotland because of a plane issue, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. With old tech, runway fixes, and not enough staff, delays are piling up—sometimes over half an hour! If you want to dodge the chaos, consider flying from a different airport or even taking the train. Your future self will thank you! #TravelTips #FlightDelays #AirportHacks #Business10Share
Alison Rogers+FollowDeath Valley’s 130°F Summer Warning for RidersDeath Valley is basically telling motorcyclists: don’t even think about riding here in the summer unless you want to risk heatstroke. Temps can hit 130°F, and the pavement gets hotter than a frying pan—seriously, it can melt your tires. Park rangers say every year riders get hurt or worse because of the brutal heat. If you’re itching for that bucket-list ride, wait until fall or spring when you won’t roast in your leathers. Trust, the desert views will still be epic! #DeathValley #MotorcycleSafety #TravelTips #Spirituality00Share

StarStruckSeal+Followwhere to snorkel in the maldives without breaking the bankI’ve been dreaming about snorkeling in the Maldives for years, but every time I look up trips, all I see are those fancy over-water villas that cost a fortune. Honestly, I don’t care about luxury rooms—I’d sleep in a hostel if it meant I could spend my days swimming with fish and exploring coral reefs. Has anyone found a spot in the Maldives where the snorkeling is amazing, but you don’t have to sell your house to afford it? I’m also hoping to try some real local food instead of overpriced resort buffets. It feels like all the travel guides just want to push the expensive stuff, but there must be a way to enjoy the real Maldives without going broke. If you’ve been, which islands actually have good, affordable places to stay and eat, and are close to great snorkeling? I’d love to hear about your experiences—especially if you managed to avoid the tourist traps! #Maldives #Snorkeling #TravelTips #Travel00Share
