Traveling to South Florida can be expensive if you're circling busy holidays on the calendar but the presence of three different major airports gives budget-conscious passengers options.

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and Portland International Airport are the two easiest options when it comes to accessing the Pacific Northwest.

Portugal was one of the hottest overseas destinations prior to the pandemic. However, as the world reopens travelers will want to keep it atop their list as there's much to see and experience, from the otherworldly Algarve to the capital of Lisbon.
