My parents insist on sharing hotel rooms on family trips to save money, even though we're all adults now. Is that normal?

If your parents still want everyone to pile into one hotel room on family trips, you are far from alone. For many families, sharing rooms started as a budget move when the kids were small and simply never got revisited. The awkward part is that what felt practical at age 10 can feel very different when everyone involved is a full-grown adult.

So, we ranked them…and yes, there are definitely a few surprises.

My airline canceled my flight after I checked in online—but refused to refund my baggage fees. Is that allowed?

If your flight is canceled, you're normally entitled to the full value of your ticket, including all additional fees.

My airline seated my child next to a stranger and told me swapping seats was not guaranteed. Is that really acceptable?

It is one of the most stressful moments in air travel. You arrive at the gate, scan the boarding passes, and realize your child has been assigned a seat next to a stranger while you are rows away. Many parents assume airlines must fix that situation, but in the United States the answer has often been messier than travelers expect.

I planned a cheap vacation, but surprise charges doubled the cost. Can I get any of that money back?

I thought I had found the perfect cheap vacation online. The airfare was low, the hotel looked amazing, and the total price seemed completely reasonable. Then the surprise charges started rolling in before I even unpacked my suitcase. Extra baggage fees, resort charges, and unexpected hotel costs quickly piled up. What started as a budget-friendly getaway suddenly ended up costing nearly twice as much as I planned.
