If it’s wrong to include Greenland in more than one of our Where To Go lists, then we don’t want to be right (it was featured in both 2022 and 2024). Now presenting: an even easier way to get there.

In 2024, the nearest (and only North American) departure point to Greenland left from Iqaluit, Nunavut, in Canada. But in the coming year, United Airlines has announced that it will begin a seasonal route from Newark to Nuuk, Greenland’s capital city, beginning in June 2025.

Cruising among icebergs, hiking by the light of the midnight sun, humpback whale-watching, and wandering the narrow paths of fishing villages dotted with Crayola-colored homes. If all of that weren’t enough to sell you on a summer trip to Greenland, perhaps the prospect of the northern lights would—yes, it’s even possible around the summer.

Much like 2024, 2025 is shaping up to be a good year for the aurora. In general, the weeks around the spring and autumn equinoxes (March and September, respectively) often have the best shows, as solar winds tend to be the strongest around these times. Plan your trip accordingly.

This coastal Connecticut city is a standout among “those who know” and is about to be for open-minded travelers who want to dive a bit deeper into the best of what New England has to offer.

Mid-tier budget carriers Avelo and Breeze are both rapidly expanding their networks, resulting in an overlap of several routes. And one thing that we know for sure: Competition on routes is the biggest factor that keeps airfares low. Cue the fireworks at Tweed New Haven Airport.

Something else we’ve noticed is how low-cost carriers are increasingly targeting cities peripheral to some of the largest US metro markets—New Haven is just up I-95 from New York City. By adding more and more routes, airlines are signaling a potential shift in the dynamics of domestic air travel.

Not only is this great news for people in Connecticut, who now have more, quicker destination options than ever before, it’s also great news if you’re looking to tour historic Yale University, pop into some museums, and enjoy a delicious New Haven slice (don’t come for us, New Yorkers).

Following the pandemic, Asia has been one of the last regions to bounce back with cheap airfare and plane capacity (to be fair, it still hasn’t fully bounced back). While airfare to Asia is currently 13% cheaper than it was this time last year, the capacity of flights across the Pacific are on average still about 20% lower than pre-pandemic.

The good news, though: It is bouncing back. One area we’re seeing promise is Macau. Our data has shown that the autonomous region on the south coast of China, sitting across the Pearl River estuary from Hong Kong, is receiving more regular deals—and fares continue to drop. As of late 2024, you can expect to see sub-$900 fares to Macau from many US airports. And in late November, we sent a best-ever deal for $594 roundtrip from LA to Macau.

Known as the “Las Vegas of Asia,” Macau offers a unique mix of multi-cultural heritage, combining Portuguese and Chinese influence and making it a historic center recognized by the UNESCO World Heritage Organization. It also happens to be a hot foodie destination, recognized by UNESCO as the world’s first “fusion” cuisine, exemplified in its seafood, spice mixtures, and sweet treats.
