"A travel advisor, a human being that you talk to on the phone when you’re booking your ticket, you’re paying someone for that service," Potter said. "In a lot of cases with these OTAs, you’re paying for a lack of service."

Travel experts say third-party websites like Expedia or Orbitz might offer the lowest airfares, but the savings aren't always risk-free.

Try to travel, otherwise

you may become racist,

and you may end up believing

that your skin is the only one

to be right,

that your language

is the most romantic

and that you were the first

to be the first.

Travel,

because if you don't travel then

your thoughts won’t be strengthened,

won’t get filled with ideas.

Your dreams will be born with fragile legs

and then you end up believing in tv-shows,

and in those who invent enemies

that fit perfectly with your nightmares

to make you live in terror.

Travel,

because travel teaches

to say good morning to everyone

regardless of which sun we come from.

Travel,

because travel teaches

to say goodnight to everyone

regardless of the darkness

that we carry inside

Travel,

because traveling teaches to resist,

not to depend,

to accept others, not just for who they are

but also for what they can never be.

To know what we are capable of,

to feel part of a family

beyond borders,

beyond traditions and culture.

Traveling teaches us to be beyond.

Travel,

otherwise you end up believing

that you are made only for a panorama

and instead inside you

there are wonderful landscapes

still to visit.

- Gio Evan, poet and songwriter.

One person refused to wear her mask and the plane returned to the airport. All the other passengers had to book a new flight.

I support the decision to enforce the mask mandate. I marvel at the amount of harm one selfish passenger is willing to inflict.

An American Airlines flight from Miami to London this week turned around and headed back to the U.S. after a passenger refused to wear a face mask.
