Tuesday has been hailed as the magic day to book flights at the cheapest rates for years. However, According to USA Today, data from Hopper and Google Flights challenge this notion.

However, these standard guidelines don’t always apply — especially during the summer travel rush.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screened a staggering 2.99 million passengers at airports across the country on Sunday, June 23 — the highest number in a single day. Since the agency said that...

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great.
