Southwest Airlines goes all out for Halloween, with airport employees encouraged to decorate gates and airline executives parading around in costume.

United is bulking up the size of its overhead bins on most of its fleet to fit more bags. On the workhorse 737-900, that means 65 extra bags.

Starting this weekend, you’ll be able to take a virtual tour of certain aircraft during the booking process so you can pick the perfect sea location.

American Airlines CEO Doug Parker, in his strongest statement yet, said Boeing shareholders, not American’s, should pay for the 737 Max grounding.

Travelers who lose or forget AirPods on a plane often don’t see them again because they are hard to find and not easily identifiable.

The report from the Joint Authorities Technical Review criticized the certification process for the plane as being too narrow, among other things.

AAA says the best time to start shopping for holiday flights is Sept. 25. You should book before Halloween.

The nightly resort fee at Caesars Palace is going from $39 to $45. With taxes, the total tops $50. The fee is also increasing at two other hotels.

American removed the 737 Max from its schedule through the holidays, a move that will proactively cancel 140 daily flights.
