TRAVEL TIPS

I always travel with an old friend from school, but she just backed out of a trip next month and I'm stuck paying everything. Do I have any recourse?

You book the flights, reserve the hotel, and start counting down to takeoff. Then your travel partner backs out, and suddenly one fun getaway becomes a financial headache. The bad news is that getting your money back is not always simple, but there are real steps you can take depending on how the trip was booked and what was promised.

TRAVEL TIPS

The airline forced me to check my bag and then charged me. Can they really just force me to pay like that?

You packed carefully, followed the airline’s bag rules, and made it all the way to the gate. Then an agent told you your bag had to be checked anyway, and somehow you were still on the hook for a fee. It feels backwards, and many travelers understandably ask the same question: is that even fair?

My hotel added fees at checkout that weren't shown when booking. Can they do that?

You book a room at one price, then the final bill suddenly blooms with extra charges. It is one of the most common hotel complaints, and it has drawn scrutiny from federal regulators, state officials, and consumer advocates. The short answer is that hotels generally cannot spring mandatory fees on you at checkout if those charges were not properly disclosed when you booked.

TRAVEL TIPS

The tour I booked in Rome skipped some of the most famous landmarks on the schedule, but still charged full price. Is that normal?

It is one of the most frustrating travel surprises. You book a tour for a specific lineup of stops, then the day arrives and key highlights vanish from the schedule while the full charge stays put. The short answer is that changes can be normal in some situations, but charging full price without a valid reason or proper disclosure is not automatically acceptable.

TRAVEL TIPS

My family is planning a U.S. national park trip, but I heard Canadians now pay an extra $100 per person at every park. Is that true?

A family trip through America’s national parks once seemed fairly easy to budget. Gas, hotels, food and a modest entrance fee when the minivan finally reached the gate. But in 2026, one missing detail could turn that entrance sign into the most expensive part of the day.
