You won't save money flying ultra-low cost from the US to Europe and you'll spend even more of your precious holiday time trying to do so as well.

Everyone’s losing their minds at the new flights between Cork, Dublin, Shannon and the US. At €69 one-way, they’re dirt-cheap. Everyone has copped on at this point that you’d be lucky to get a return…

We made it to the promised land of ice cream sundaes too late. Exhaustion set in too soon after a fun day at the aquarium.

I've never stayed at a hotel that offered paper pads that doubled as a paper airplane kit.

When we're not traveling, we find things to do locally engage our kids' curiosity and adventurous spirit.

Ahh that feeling when your family of 4 with only 3 paid tickets (lap child was free) gets an entire row to yourself 😃🎉🍾

Has anyone ever been to a restaurant that had a walrus on the wall? Can't say I have. For the record, the food was excellent.

There's a reason behind the hype for The Ritz-Carlton - they REALLY pay attention to the smallest details and their service is INCREDIBLE. They spoil you and especially your kids! Props to The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City

Little guy's first OmniMax experience 😃

Tip for parents traveling with your kids: stay composed and do your best to stay cheerful when your travel plans go awry as your children will imitate your attitude. Multiple gate changes from one side of the airport to the opposite, flight was very delayed, gate checked stroller lost, baggage extremely delayed, huge delays getting the rental car, didn't get into our hotel room until almost 1 am (2.5 hours late) and still not a single meltdown from either kid.

One carry-on, one checked bag and two strollers. Yes you really can pack that little for a family of four for 8 days and still keep your creature comforts.

Here's some important information regarding the renewal of your passport if it's expiring in 2017.

Don't worry—the little book will still stay blue.

This has got to be one of the best airfare deals I've ever seen!!!

My first experience with Cathay Pacific was on the upper deck of the 747 from Hong Kong to Tokyo Haneda. I will really miss that aircraft.

She’s big, she’s bulbous – but beautiful. For 37 years, our Boeing 747s have opened up international travel, and propelled Cathay Pacific and Hong Kong to global status.

And after 3.1 million hours in the air, she has finally flown off to a well-earned retirement.

Here are scenes from her last flight.

身型龐大圓渾，卻不失瑰麗典雅。波音747客機與我們共渡37年，機身線條優雅，令人難以忘懷。我們不會忘記她曾帶旅客穿梭全球，帶領國泰和香港蜚聲國際。

飛越長空310萬小時，她終於功成身退。

2016年10月1日，她由日本東京飛往香港，完成最後旅程，讓我們再睹「空中之后」的綽約丰姿。

FINALLY! After 15+ segments over the past two years, we're getting a jet with a new interior and entertainment on American Airlines.

These days, I get as excited or more about complimentary amenities for my kids as I do getting great perks for myself while traveling.

I just came across this BRILLIANT site that shows you at a glance which countries require a visa for the passport that you hold. You can select a passport from any country to see the requirements. However, I still recommend checking the country of intended visitation's website directly to verify that the data is up to date before traveling.

Passport Index curates, sorts and ranks the world's passports. Explore passport designs, browse them by visa-free score, by color, or by country and discover how they rank. Which passport do you like best?

Joy and I get strange looks all the time when people learn that we routinely travel to foreign countries with our kids. Bottom line is that we prize the value of raising "compassionate, emotionally, intellectually and culturally curious human beings" over succumbing to the "illusion that we can protect our children from random acts of violence" that are no less likely to be present if we stayed home.

In order to raise compassionate, curious human beings, we have to surrender our illusion that we can protect our children from random acts of violence.

Travel Hack: Do you hate waiting on the phone to talk to airline customer service to change an itinerary? Get on Skype and call another call center in the world that speaks your language.

Spent 25 cents to call a Singapore call center and saved an hour of waiting.

Anyone heading São Paulo soon? Why not try UberCopter and share your thoughts with us.

Uber in the skies over São Paulo works much the same as Uber in the streets.

It's a good day when your new-born's passport FINALLY shows up!

Very creative way to get articles lost on the plane back to their owners.

KLM’s dedicated Lost & Found team at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is on a mission to reunite lost items as soon as possible with their legitimate owner. From a...

"Look mommy the airplane is taking a green shower!" Little guy hasn't quite figured out what deicing is 😆

A warm welcome back to snowy Canada indeed.

Oh the tragedy.

We checked into a Hyatt Regency tonight and we were told we were upgraded to a junior suite. Through a series of events, the staff realized later that we were assigned the wrong room. So instead of switching rooms after little guy was already in bed, we traded for free dinner - seems fair to me.

We drove from Fort Lauderdale to Key West last October. It was a fun drive. Didn't go to any of these places. Maybe next time!

Florida is known for some pretty outré architectural wonders, but the Florida Keys' myriad abodes, dive bars, diners, and inns are a phenomenon all their own.
