What are DROTAMs?

DROTAMs™ are what SkyVector calls "Drone NOTAMs", or Notices to Airmen defining unmanned aerial systems operating areas (UAS OA).

The U.S. Air Force, Customs and Border Protection Agency, public operators with a Certificate of Authorization (COA), or private commercial operators granted a Section 333 exemption may issue NOTAMs to advise pilots of their activities.

TripPlanner Price Range Help

Optimize your route. Reduce your ticket cost. Get personal advice by shceduling a phone appointment with a Flight Specialist here .

When we built AirTreks, our goal was to give you a bird's-eye-view of prices for your route as quickly as possible. Adding dates to request fares from a computer algorithm can sometimes eliminate the best options, miss interesting alternatives and be more time consuming than is absolutely necessary.

We believe your trip isn't just about punching cities into a form and seeing what comes back. Rather than rely on automated methods and your own data entry to locate airfares, we utilize the collective expertise of real people, travelers who have booked literally thousands of complex trips and have actually been to the places you want to go. That personal know-how, combined with your individual preferences, helps us come up with the very best routing and price possible for your AirTrek.

AirTreks' price range should be used as a guide (factor in a bit more for travel during high season or last-minute travel), and then submit to a Travel Planner for a specific personalised quote. Once you get to talking with us, we often find ways to reduce your cost or add in extras, creating amazing trips for you, every time.

*AirTreks prices always include taxes and fees.

Since AirTreks only requires a route to determine a trip's price, it's not until you're ready to purchase that your Travel Planner will make exact flight requests. As an AirTreks client, you'll be involved in the process of selecting all your itinerary details, the dates and times, when that point comes

Yes, you can request specific airlines, routes and non-stop or direct flights. Just let your AirTreks Travel Planner know your requirements and they'll adjust your itinerary to meet your needs.

This is a service of Airtreks International LLC.

Since 1987, AirTreks has been a leader in multi-stop international travel, especially complex routes with up to 25 stops.

We believe travel is vital: Our core values are making meaningful connections, embracing change, working and playing with passion, loving learning, and owning our experience.

On the KAYAK app for iOS and Android you’ll find all the great travel offers found on the website and much more. There are special mobile rates and app only deals that allow you to save even more money. Plus, you can get notifications straight to your phone letting you know when prices for your next trip have dropped.

The 9 Best Travel Planner Apps of 2024

Proper planning prevents poor purchasing. Get ready for your trip the right way!

• Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College
• Payment Services

Planning the perfect trip can be almost overwhelming enough to take the fun out of what should be an exciting experience. Thankfully, many travel planning apps are available to help you organize your next getaway, right down to the smallest detail.

Best for Predicting Lowest Flight and Hotel Prices: Hopper

The Watch feature sends push notifications about good deals when it's time to commit.

Some fairly large airlines aren't included in Hopper's analysis.

Hopper's proprietary algorithm tries to predict where flight and lodging prices are headed shortly, letting you wait until the right moment to spring into action and book your trip at the lowest price. The app analyzes billions of prices per day and claims to predict what the cheapest one will be with a 95% accuracy rate.

Download For:

Best for Helping You Remember the Essentials: Packing Pro

An impressive group of sample packing lists provides a good starting point if you don't want to make your own.

In-app purchases are inappropriate for an app you purchased.

Packing Pro is well worth the $2.99 if stuffing your suitcases isn't your favorite pre-trip activity. The app creates customizable packing lists considering essential factors like the trip duration, destination, expected weather conditions, food preferences, and more. Packing Pro's robust item catalog ensures that even the most unique dietary or religious restrictions are satisfied.

Best for Car or RV Trips: Roadtrippers

The hidden gems that can be discovered with this app.

GPS coordination isn't as good as it is in apps like Waze.

If dealing with long lines at the airport isn't your idea of fun, then Roadtrippers may be the app for you. Whether you're hitting the highway or off-roading, enter your starting and destination points and let Roadtrippers provide everything you need.

From campsites and outdoor attractions to unique adventures that are off the beaten path, this app is the perfect companion for planning an excursion, no matter if your mode of transportation is a small-sized rental car or a giant RV.

An optional yearly subscription unlocks advanced features, including live traffic monitoring and different map styles.

Best for Finding Bargain Flights: Skiplagged

Frequent travelers can save a significant amount of money.

Airline baggage fee policies can be murky, so read the fine print before booking.

By showing fares to connecting cities that are sometimes cheaper than a direct flight to that city, Skiplagged lets you book flights where you stay at the layover location (your destination) rather than continuing with the connecting flight. When it works, you spend less to reach your desired destination. Skiplagged also lets you book last-minute hotel deals.

Best Overall Trip Planner: Kayak

The Explore feature helps you decide on a destination, suggesting getaways all over the globe based on your maximum budget.

Doesn't always show all available flights on a specific route, potentially causing you to miss out on the best deal.

One of the top all-in-one apps for setting up a trip, Kayak searches hundreds of travel sites instantly to provide multiple deals on a flight, hotel, or rental car in the same location. Kayak also organizes everything in one place and includes up-to-date details on security wait times, along with airport terminal maps.

The app also measures your luggage using your phone's camera, informing you of potential fees and carry-on rules for most airlines.

Best for Avoiding Hidden Fees: Skyscanner

Offers protection to ensure car rental providers don't overcharge for fuel.

In rare instances, flight prices shown in the app are outdated.

Skyscanner should be included in some of the bigger all-in-one planning and booking apps. Offering reliable price alerts, integrated frequent flyer miles, and no additional or hidden fees like you might find elsewhere, Skyscanner usually follows through on its promises and is easy to navigate.

Best Itinerary Planner: Sygic Travel

If you don't want a planned itinerary, Sygic is useful for finding nearby attractions on-the-fly.

Access to Sygic's offline maps requires a paid upgrade to the Premium version.

Sygic Travel lets you plan a detailed itinerary for each day of your trip before you leave home, down to the last detail, like walking distances between attractions.

With over 50 million places included, many with 360-degree videos that make you feel like you're there, the app's smart search filters help you narrow things down to the perfect daily schedule. Collaborative city guides provide an easy-to-use snapshot of the most popular locales around the globe.

Best for Customer Reviews: TripAdvisor

The forums are a great resource for getting specific travel-related questions answered quickly.

Default rankings don't always correlate with customer reviews, so you often need to take a deeper dive to discover the best value.

A stalwart in the travel industry, TripAdvisor isn't unique in providing a one-stop-shop for booking good deals on flights, hotels, and restaurants for your upcoming trip, though it does a dependable job of each. The app sets itself apart with its customer feedback on airlines, lodging, food, and activities. By offering over 500 million opinions from real travelers who've been there and done that, TripAdvisor helps you make informed planning decisions based on others' past experiences.

Best for Organizing Confirmations and Reservations: TripIt

Send information manually, forward confirmation emails, or have the app automatically fetch itineraries from your inbox.

The default notification setting is for an annoying number of alerts.

When you plan a trip, it's not uncommon to receive multiple confirmation emails and itineraries from airlines, hotels, rental car companies, or other sources. Keeping all these details organized can be a hassle.

TripIt solves this problem by taking all your scattered information and organizing it into an easy-to-use main itinerary. This basic functionality is free of charge, while an annual subscription provides the ability to upgrade your seat on upcoming flights and track reward miles, among other perks.

How to find cheap flights, what is the best day to buy a plane ticket.

This just in! Airfares offered on Thursdays tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity in 2021. Tuesday and Wednesday prices are also good, but you may want to prepare your budget if booking during the weekend, as data shows that is when prices are generally at their highest.

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travelers may already know this, but earlier in the week can be the cheapest time to fly. In 2021, flights departing on a Monday were generally the cheapest of the week, whereas you may pay a premium for weekend flights when demand is usually high. On average, tickets were most expensive for Saturday departures, so if you need to fly out on a weekend, you might look for deals ahead of time.

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Trying to figure out how early you should book your flight? It’s possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 0-2 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.com from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change based on departure location, date and destination.

Can AI find you the cheapest plane tickets? How Google and Skyscanner compared.

• Skyscanner’s Savvy Search and Google’s Gemini are AI-powered tools that can help you plan your trip.
• Both tools can also find you cheap flights, but Gemini was able to find the lowest price.
• Skyscanner’s tool is a good starting place if you don’t have a destination in mind.

When booking a flight, chances are you want to score the best deal. This is especially true now that flights from U.S. airports are more expensive than they were a few years ago.

There are already a few tools out there to help you find affordable airfare , such as flight price trackers and low-fare calendars, but what about those new AI tools? Travel search engines like Booking.com, Expedia and Skyscanner have recently launched AI-powered features to help customers plan their vacations.

These AI trip planners – which act like chatbots – assist travelers in planning aspects of their trip, like finding accommodations and destinations, even building an itinerary for them. But some of them may even be able to help you find cheap flights. 

Launched in May, Skyscanner’s Savvy Search tool is powered by OpenAI’s ChatGPT and “accesses a vast database of over 18 million flight routes and 80 billion daily price searches to offer the best travel recommendations,” Laura Lindsay, Global Travel Trends Expert at Skyscanner, told USA TODAY.

Google’s own AI tool, Gemini, is a “creative and productivity tool” that also can help travelers with trip planning, according to a Google spokesperson. Gemini can also connect to and access “relevant information from the Google tools you use every day,” from Google Flights, Google Hotels, Google Maps and Google Docs, according to a Google spokesperson. So you can check out flights, hotels and driving directions all in one conversation with Gemini. 

I tested Skyscanner’s AI Trip Planner and Google’s Gemini to see if they could find me the most affordable round-trip flights for a trip from Honolulu to New York for the week of Aug. 18-25. For reference, a search on Google Flights on Thursday afternoon revealed the cheapest flight was a $761 round-trip ticket on United Airlines in its basic economy cabin. Here’s what I found.

What is it like using Skyscanner’s Savvy Search?

After creating an account with Skyscanner, I easily found the Savvy Search on the mobile app's home screen. I had to input my departure city and answer the question “What kind of trip is on your mind?” Getting straight to the point, I typed in, “What are the cheapest flights from Honolulu to New York for the week of August 18-25?” 

Savvy Search offered “three recommended places,” including New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Not really what I asked, but I suppose the answer was technically there. I clicked to see flights for New York and was taken to a list of flights to compare. I could sort by “best,” “cheapest,” “fastest” and “direct,” as well as choose my cabin class and add other travelers. 

The cheapest flight that came up cost $645 round trip, and although inexpensive, it wasn’t looking easy. Both my departing and return flights would be self-transfers, requiring me to recheck any bags and go through security again, and it included an 11-hour layover on my return journey. 

I went ahead to book, and because Skyscanner is a flight comparison tool, the AI took me to an outside travel platform called DoHop , an Iceland-founded travel search engine that creates “unique connecting flights,” according to its website. I’ve never used DoHop before, and when I continued with my booking, I discovered I was also being charged a $32.64 DoHop booking fee and $12.50 if I wanted to bring a carry-on. (Only a personal item is free.)

The total was $664.83, about $97 cheaper than what Google Flights found. 

I also tested whether Savvy Search could find me cheap flights without a destination in mind (only my budget). It offered Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo. The cheapest option to Los Angeles was two direct flights on Alaska Airlines for $341. Once again, it sent me to book externally, but this time through Kiwi.com. 

Booking through third-party vendors like Kiwi or DoHop can be tricky for travelers, especially if things don’t go as planned, because airlines and hotels won’t typically claim responsibility if you didn’t book directly with them. Often, third-party support isn’t always reliable. 

Are Tuesdays still the best day to book? Here's what major travel platforms found about purchasing airfare.

What is it like to use Google’s Gemini to find cheap flights?

I accessed Gemini through its website – which required a Google account sign-in – and asked the same question I posed to Skyscanner's Trip Planner. Gemini warned me that it “doesn’t always get it right. Be sure to check the following flight details.” 

Gemini provided five flight options, with the lowest price one a $615 round-trip flight on United Airlines –  $49 less than what Skyscanner told me and $146 cheaper than my own Google Flights search. 

Gemini told me how long the entire journey would take with each flight option, plus layovers. I clicked the flight I wanted and was taken right to Google Flights, where I could book through the airline or adjust my flights. 

I tested out other prompts, such as finding the cheapest flight from Honolulu for the same dates. (The answer was a flight to Maui for $160 round trip.) Since that answer was a bit obvious, I tried again, asking for flights not within Hawaii. (That would be San Francisco starting at $354 round trip.) I also asked if it was a cheap time to fly from Honolulu to New York in August. (No, because summer break is peak travel season.)  

The verdict

As far as finding the cheapest flight, Gemini takes the cake. I liked how seamless it was to move between Gemini and Google Flights. Although I wouldn’t want to book Skyscanner’s cheapest flight, I think it’s a helpful tool to compare prices and see the range of options. (Maybe you don’t mind a self-transfer.) 

I mainly like how Skyscanner’s tool recommended a variety of destinations when I asked for affordable flights from Honolulu, so it’s a good starting place if you don’t have a destination in mind. In fact, this is what half of Skyscanner’s users do, according to Lindsay. You can also ask Skyscanner for affordable destination alternatives and look for flights from there. 

Overall, both AI tools can fit into any passenger’s repertoire when searching for the best flight deals.

Summer Travel 2024: Record Air Travel, Fewer Cancellations, Better Airports, More Passenger Protections

Year-to-date flight cancellation rate is just 1.4% during a record-breaking summer travel season​​​​​

WASHINGTON – Despite record-breaking levels of air travel this year, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) numbers show that the flight cancellation rate for the first half of 2024 was just 1.4% – nearly the lowest rate in over a decade. The latest data from airlines reported to the U.S. Department of Transportation shows that weather continues to be the leading cause of flight cancellations.

On June 23, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screened more than 2.99 million individuals in a single day at U.S. airports – the most airline passengers the agency has screened in its history. TSA expects to screen more than 32 million individuals this Independence Day travel season, which is a 5.4% increase over last year. At the same time, airfares are down 6% over the last year and below pre-pandemic prices.

“This year’s record-breaking air travel is another good sign for our economy as more Americans take to the skies than ever before,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. “To help avoid travel headaches, the Biden-Harris Administration has taken historic action to modernize airports and expand passenger protections for a smoother travel experience.” 

President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law invests $25 billion in U.S. airport infrastructure over five years. This unprecedented investment is not only improving runways and air traffic control towers but also adding gates and adding flight capacity, modernizing baggage systems, replacing passenger boarding bridges, reconfiguring security screening areas, improving safety, and more to finally deliver world-class airports in the U.S. and meet anticipated demand in the decades to come. Just this week, the Federal Aviation Administration announced $289 million in airport infrastructure grants in 40 states and an additional $1 billion in available funding to modernize airport terminals. Thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, nearly 200 terminal projects are already under construction to modernize America’s airports and make air travel safer and smoother. 

The Biden-Harris Administration has taken historic action to improve airline passenger rights and oversight of the airline industry: 

• The rule makes clear that airline passengers are entitled to a refund when their flight is canceled or significantly changed and they no longer wish to take that flight or be rebooked, when their checked baggage is significantly delayed, or when extra services they paid for – like Wi-Fi – are not provided. The rule also requires refunds to be automatic, prompt, in the original form of payment, and in the full amount paid. Airlines must comply with the rule by late October.  
• Provisions of the final rule on airline refunds were fortified through the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 that President Biden signed into law on May 16, 2024. 
• The rule creates a more competitive airline market by requiring airlines to disclose critical extra fees – like change fees and baggage fees – upfront to ensure consumers can better understand the true cost of air travel. The rule also bans “bait-and-switch” advertising tactics and requires airlines to clearly tell passengers upfront that a seat is included with the cost of their ticket. This rule is expected to save consumers over half a billion dollars every year.  
• Launched the flightrights.gov dashboard, after which all 10 major U.S. airlines guaranteed free rebooking and meals when an airline issue causes a significant delay or cancellation. These are new commitments the airlines added to their customer service plans that DOT can legally ensure they adhere to through enforcement action.  
• Secured nearly $4 billion in refunds and reimbursements owed to airline passengers – including over $600 million to passengers affected by the Southwest Airlines holiday meltdown in 2022.  
• Issued nearly $170 million in penalties against airlines for consumer protection violations since President Biden took office. In comparison, between 1996 and 2020, DOT collectively issued less than $71 million in penalties against airlines for consumer protection violations.  
• Set up a system to expand the Department’s capacity to review air travel service complaints by partnering with a bipartisan group of state attorneys general , which will help hold airlines accountable and protect the rights of the traveling public.

Planning on traveling for the Fourth of July holiday? Here’s how to avoid the rush

NEW YORK (AP) — The Fourth of July is right around the corner, and the travel rush is already heating up.

Millions of Americans are preparing to get out of town sometime in the coming holiday week. That will likely mean busy roads, as well as packed airports and train stations.

Motor club AAA projects that some 70.9 million travelers will head 50 miles (80 kilometers) or more from their homes over a nine-day Independence Day travel period — surpassing pre-pandemic numbers for the U.S. holiday. And the Transportation Security Administration expects to screen over 32 million individuals in airports from this Thursday through July 8, up 5.4% from last year’s numbers.

Are you traveling for the Fourth? Here’s a rundown of what you need to know.

When is the best time to hit the road for July Fourth?

Smooth sailing for travel around any holiday is never a given. But avoiding the most hectic times, when others are rushing out of town, is a good way to start.

If you’re traveling by car for the Fourth of July, it’s best to hit the road in the morning, according to transportation data and insights provider INRIX. Peak traffic congestion varies by location, INRIX data published by AAA shows, but the worst times to drive on, or leading up to, the holiday are generally between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Either way, be prepared for the roads to be jammed.

“Road trips over the holiday week could take up to 67% longer than normal,” Bob Pishue, transportation analyst at INRIX, said in a prepared statement.

July Fourth falls on a Thursday this year, and many travelers will likely take Friday July 5th off to extend their trip into a four-day weekend. Drivers in large metro areas can expect the biggest delays on Wednesday July 3 and Sunday July 7 — as travelers leave and return to town, Pishue added.

And if you’re renting a car ahead of July Fourth, the busiest pickup days will be Friday, Saturday and Wednesday before the holiday, AAA notes.

When will airports be busiest?

Airports will also likely be packed all week long — but the TSA expects most people will take to the skies on Friday.

It anticipates that it will screen more than 3 million individuals Friday. That would surpass the agency’s current record for most people screened on a single day, which reached just under 3 million last Sunday.

“We expect this summer to be our busiest ever,” TSA Administrator David Pekoske said, adding that travel typical peaks around Independence Day.

Last year, the busiest day for Fourth of July air travel was also the Friday ahead of the holiday, TSA data shows. If past trends hold, travel will likely be higher on the days before and after the Fourth — particularly closer to the weekend. In 2023, for example, more than 2 million people were screened on the Fourth, which landed on a Tuesday last year, down from 2.88 million the Friday before.

What should I do if my flight is delayed or canceled?

Flights can be delayed or canceled for an array of reasons — from plane-specific mechanical problems to major storms impacting popular travel paths.

If your flight is canceled, airlines are required to provide refunds for customers, even if the cancellation is due to weather . Delays are trickier, because they typically have to meet certain criteria for relief, such as refunds or compensation — but carriers will often give customers to chance to switch to alternative flights, if available, at no cost.

In April, the Biden administration issued final rules that include requiring airlines to provide automatic cash refunds within a few days for canceled flights and “significant” delays. Those rules are set to take effect over the next two years, but the Department of Transportation has a site that lets consumers see the commitments each airline has made for refunds and covering other expenses when flights are canceled or significantly delayed.

Always check your itinerary before leaving home

It’s better to be stuck at home than locked in hourslong traffic or stranded in an airport terminal. Before heading out the door this holiday week, do yourself a favor and check the status of your travel plans.

Was your flight, train or bus ride delayed? Are there are traffic incidents set to disrupt your drive? And what about the weather? A quick look through your itinerary — such as trip updates on a carrier’s website — checking weather forecasts and monitoring traffic safety through services like the 511 hotline or your phone’s navigation apps can go a long way toward avoiding travel misery.

Here are a few more tips to keep in mind:

— Leave early: There are more people everywhere during a holiday week, so lines will be longer and roads will be busier. Give yourself more time to get to your destination or to make your way through airport security.

— Keep an eye on the weather — and not just for your destination: Look at the weather for your entire travel path. Even if it’s sunny skies both at home and the place you’re headed, it’s important to keep an eye out for any storms in between. You may need to do some rerouting.

— Be kind: A trip delay or cancellation can be really frustrating — but if you’re running into disruptions, chances are others are too. Customer service agents have a lot on their plate at this time of year, and it’s important to be patient and respectful as they try to help you.
