Sophia Celentano went viral on TikTok after she shared how she commutes by plane to her internship. She said the unusual commute allows her to save money on expensive east coast rent. I'm usually at my gate by around 5:15 a.m., which is exactly when boarding starts. My morning flight often lands about 15 minutes early. I get to the office usually around 8:30 or 8:45 a.m., and that's when I start my full 9-to-5 workday.

☆ Canceled, delayed flights are likely over July 4 holiday weekend. What to know about your rights

Over 2.8 million travelers are expected to pass through airport security checkpoints on Friday — a single-day record, according to the Transportation Security Administration. This comes as severe storms and staffing shortages have already derailed thousands of flights this week. Federal law doesn't require airlines to pay compensation to passengers for delays, Palmer said. The U.S. Department of Transportation's Airline Customer Service Dashboard outlines passenger rights for specific airlines. Even if a delay isn't their fault, many airlines will transfer your ticket to another airline's flight with available seats at no additional cost — if you ask, according to the U.S. PIRG Education Fund.

TSA PreCheck is ideal for domestic travel, and Global Entry is best for international travel. If you're wondering whether services like TSA PreCheck, Clear, or Global Entry are worth it, Insider asked three frequent travelers for their advice and experience using expedited airport services. For both TSA PreCheck and Clear, travelers can apply online but both require an in-person appointment to complete the application. Consider Global Entry for frequent international travelIf you take several international trips a year, Global Entry is great for getting through immigration screenings faster, and the service currently costs $100 for five years. Like TSA PreCheck and Clear, the Global Entry application requires an in-person interview, which can often have a long wait.

Meal vouchers will be sent for delays of three hours or more and hotel vouchers for overnight delays. On Thursday, United Airlines said that it will start sending meal and hotel vouchers via phone to passengers whose flights have been disrupted. Disruptions include issues pertaining to maintenance or technology— or what United spokesperson Amy Fisher called "controllable" delays— which means weather related issues don't count. Flights for those with overnight delays will be rebooked for the next day, she added. "We've been automatically rebooking customers and providing meal and hotel vouchers for years," Fisher said.

WASHINGTON, May 30 (Reuters) - U.S. holiday air passenger travel topped 2019 pre-COVID levels over the Memorial Day weekend, which typically marks the start of the busy U.S. summer air travel season, figures from the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) showed on Tuesday. The TSA said nearly 9.8 million passengers were screened or passed though security checks over the four-day weekend, about 300,000 more than over the same holiday period in 2019, the agency said on Tuesday. The agency said it screened 2.74 million passengers on Friday alone, the highest number in a single day since November 2019. Friday's traffic topped the recent high that had been set on Thursday and the entire weekend topped pre-COVID traffic levels.
