    Most travelers don't know their credit card covers this—it saved me $4,000 after a hit-and-run (opens the original)

    Since becoming a travel writer, I charge nearly every travel-related business expense to my Capital One Spark Cash Select. It covers most of my hotels, flights, rental cars and meals. One of the card's lesser-known perks is a built-in collision damage waiver, or CDW, which covers the cost of damage to a rental car you've paid for with the card if it's in an accident. For years, I'd trusted that benefit, thankfully without ever needing to use it. But that changed this past September when I took a

    Leave it to a group trip to escalate an interpersonal flare-up into a full-blown social crisis. In a recent viral Reddit thread, a 34-year-old woman wondered whether she was wrong to uninvite a friend from her school moms' annual cabin getaway.

    It's been months since the World Cup, when travelers from around the world descended upon the United States and fell in love with our mainstream idiosyncrasies. They headed home with suitcases packed full of ranch dressing and a newly emboldened habit of asking for free soda refills. One French filmmaker, who goes by @zmr_leo, or Leo, online, recently spent two weeks in the country, though for an entirely different purpose. Inspired by YouTuber Peter Santello, Leo wanted to explore the "real" si

    The best states for fall foliage in 2026, and the ones to skip (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Every year, leaf peepers pile into their cars and head for the spots where they expect the most vivid ochers, ambers and scarlets. But between taking time off work and booking spots at sold-out campgrounds, the hardest part is timing the trip to Mother Nature's clock.

Ahead, AccuWeather laid out a fall foliage forecast this year with some early guidance o
