Travel analyst Henry Harteveldt applauded airlines for their on-time performance over the Thanksgiving holiday. Before the pandemic reshaped the aviation industry as we know it, Thanksgiving was the US' busiest holiday for air travel. United Airlines told Insider that it flew more than 476,000 customers on Sunday, and the Thanksgiving holiday period was the carrier's third-busiest behind 2018 and 2019. Although the historically unreliable holiday flight operations may have scared people away from flying over Thanksgiving, Harteveldt told Insider the successful week is a win for US carriers. "They have to continue to operate reliably during the next few weeks, during the Christmas and New Year's period, and throughout 2023 and beyond," Harteveldt told Insider.
Travelers can save money on unconventional flying days. The average round-trip domestic airfare for trips between November 20 and November 24 this year cost $350, according to the Hopper travel booking app. Rising jet fuel prices, fewer scheduled flights, and pent-up travel demand have all contributed to the higher prices, Hopper said. On average, Black Friday fares are $175 less than the weekend days after Thanksgiving, according to Hopper. Hopper expects airline tickets to rise $10 per day starting Nov. 1 with domestic round-trip prices peaking at $550 for last-minute bookings.
The CEO of Accor, Europe's top hotel chain, said he's hiring workers without experience or résumés. Sebastien Bazin said some Accor hotels were limiting restaurant hours because of staff shortages. Hospitality workers have been quitting their jobs over wages, benefits, and working conditions. It means some hotels have been forced to widen their candidate pools — with Accor, Europe's largest hotel chain, turning to workers without experience or even résumés. Some days, Accor hotels have been forced to stop serving lunch or even completely close their restaurants because they don't have enough staff, Bazin said.
The Professional Weekender is designed for business travelers looking for a one-bag solution for those 1-2 day trips. The bag has a large main clothing compartment, which can be overstuffed if you need to fit more than usual. You can also remove the compartment altogether to give the clothing compartment more room to expand. While the bag is a travel backpack, there are two grab handles — one at the top, and one at the side that you can use to carry it briefcase-style. Just unzip the laptop compartment, and open the bag flat.
