Justin Dixon+FollowWhy Southwest Won’t Fly to CanadaDid you know Southwest Airlines has never flown to Canada? Seriously, they hit up places like Mexico, Jamaica, and even Hawaii, but Canada’s a no-go. Turns out, it’s not just about the cold—high airport taxes, their unique point-to-point flight system, and no ground partners up north make it a no-brainer for them to skip it. Maybe that’ll change someday, but for now, you’ll need another airline for your poutine fix! #Travel #TravelNews #Aviation1712Share
Brad Ramirez+FollowGuess Where Russians Are Vacationing Now?Russian tourists are swapping the beaches of Europe for... North Korea! With most European countries shutting their doors to Russian travelers, direct flights from Moscow to Pyongyang just kicked off. It’s the first time in over 70 years these two capitals are connected by air. Monthly flights, anyone? Not exactly the dream getaway, but when options run out, you take what you can get! #Travel #TravelNews #Russia277183Share
Jamie Watson+FollowLavender Fields Overrun by Tourists!Brihuega’s dreamy lavender fields in Spain are Insta-famous, but locals are begging tourists to skip weekends. The tiny town (just 3,000 people!) gets swamped by over 100,000 visitors in July alone, all chasing that perfect purple shot. The mayor says weekdays are way less chaotic, and they’re even planning shuttle buses to help. The fields bring in millions, but the crowds are wild. Would you visit off-peak for a calmer vibe (and better pics)? #Travel #TravelNews #Overtourism11Share
dylan15+FollowAir France & KLM Now Charging for Carry-Ons?!Heads up if you’re flying Air France or KLM soon: they’re testing a new ‘Basic’ fare that only lets you bring a tiny personal item for free—think small laptop bag, not your usual roller. Want your regular carry-on? That’ll be at least €15 each way. This is just on select routes for now, but it could totally change how we pack for Europe. Would you pay or just go ultra-minimalist? #Travel #TravelNews #AirFrance31Share

ashley89+FollowNorwegian Cruise’s Bahamas Switch-Up!Booked a Bahamas cruise on Norwegian Getaway for Oct 2025? Surprise! Two out of three Bahamas stops (Nassau & Bimini) just got swapped for Cozumel, Mexico, all because of port availability. That’s over 600 miles off course! The cruise line says these changes happen, but guests are bummed—especially since it’s too late to cancel without big penalties. Would you be cool with a last-minute itinerary shakeup, or is this a dealbreaker? #Travel #CruiseLife #TravelNews53Share
Sandra Escobar+FollowWichita’s airport ramps up Phoenix flightsMore nonstop flights from Wichita to Phoenix are on the way just as travel at Eisenhower Airport hits record highs! Starting November 2, American Airlines will offer a second daily flight to Phoenix, making it even easier to connect to the West Coast, Hawaii, or Mexico. This extra service runs through early January, right when holiday travel peaks. With May seeing the airport’s busiest month ever, it’s clear more people are flying out of Wichita than ever before. Anyone else planning a trip or noticing the airport feels busier lately? #News #Wichita #TravelNews30Share
Jamie Watson+FollowSouthwest’s Big Loyalty LetdownSouthwest is ditching its famous free-for-all seating and ‘bags fly free’ perks—yep, the things that made it different from every other airline. Starting next year, you’ll have to pay for seat assignments, extra legroom, and even checked bags (unless you’re a top-tier loyalist). Basically, Southwest is now just like the rest, but with a side of PR spin. Anyone else feeling a little betrayed? #Travel #SouthwestAirlines #TravelNews3128Share

Ernest Harris+FollowUnited Drops Cuba Flights—Here’s WhyHeads up if you were dreaming of a Havana getaway: United Airlines is pressing pause on its only Cuba route this September. It’s not just about fewer people flying—new government rules are tightening up travel to Cuba, so United’s Houston-to-Havana flights are grounded for now. If you’ve got travel plans, keep an eye out—United hopes to bring the route back, but there’s no set date yet. Always double-check your destination before booking! #Business #TravelNews #FlightUpdates10Share
