Earlier this month, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) added four new airlines to its list of TSA PreCheck participating airlines: Aer Lingus, Air New Zealand, Ethiopian Airlines, and Saudia. Of those, Aer Lingus is the largest in the US, flying to 16 US airports, as well as Barbados and Toronto. Ethiopian Airways is the national carrier of Ethiopia and flies from five US cities on the East Coast, and Saudi Airlines flies from DC, New York, and LA, as well as Toronto. Air New Zealand uses six US airports, mostly in major cities.

While they may be money savers or inevitabilities, layovers are stressful. Sprinting through hallways trying to make it to your gate on time is nerve-wracking and not a great way to start or end a vacation. And anyone who has been to Orlando International Airport (MCO) knows that this is not an airport for the faint of heart. In fact, it's regularly ranked as one of the worst in the country, especially for layovers.

Starting back in 2006, you may have noticed a new camera-like icon appear on the front of your passport. That's when the United States started implementing biometric passports, also known as e-Passports. The first country to use them was Malaysia in 1998, with other countries following suit in the years that followed.

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...

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.

With an assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, the U.S. experienced another violent episode in its increasingly polarized politics. Former President Trump, who’s about to formally become the GOP nominee for president in the 2024 election, survived the attempted assassination when, initial reports said, a bullet grazed his ear . But one rally attendee was killed , more spectators were injured and the suspected gunman is also dead. The Conversation’s politics editor, Naomi Schalit, spoke with University of Massachusetts, Lowell, scholar Arie Perliger after the event. Perliger offered insight from his study of political violence and assassinations. Given the stark political polarization in the U.S., Perliger said, “it’s not a surprise that eventually people engage in violence.”
