If you haven’t yet renewed your passport ahead of international summer travel, prepare to pay plenty to fix the problem. Wait times for passports have increased across the board in recent months.

Visitors driving into Montana’s Glacier National Park this summer must buy a vehicle pass on Recreation.gov. The pass is free, but visitors pay a $2 fee to book the reservation.

Amsterdam is redefining the role tourism will play in the city. Amsterdam has a message for tourists who want to party hard while visiting the city: Stay away. The Netherlands’ capital plans to launch a deterrence campaign later this month aimed at tourists who go wild during their visits.

  + stars: | 2023-02-23 | by ( Allison Pohle | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Airbnb properties have a grading problem, hosts and guests say: Most U.S. rentals earn near the top rating of five stars. Hosts are facing more competition for bookings because Airbnb has added more properties for rent, and as a result hosts say their ratings matter more to set them apart. Some hosts are experiencing what they’ve named an “Airbnbust,” or a drop-off in bookings due to the jump in short-term rental properties.
