Whether you travel often or just take the occasional vacation, a travel rewards credit card can be an excellent companion. With every purchase, you can use a good travel card to collect points or miles that are redeemable for flights, hotels or other travel bookings. And many travel cards come with extra benefits, too, from free entry into airport lounges to statement credits toward application fees for TSA PreCheck and other programs that expedite security screening at the airport. Take a look at our picks of the best travel rewards credit cards. If you’d rather have a card that offers cash-back rewards, see The Best Cash-Back Credit Cards . For each card (except premium travel cards), we’ve calculated a typical annual rebate based on spending patterns in the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey and assuming $25,000 spent on the card annually. For cards that do not waive their annual fee the first year, we’ve subtracted the annual fee from the cash value of the annual rebate.

An economic recession is looking increasingly likely and it’s time to look around for stocks to sell. A majority of economists (72%) polled by the National Association of Business Economics say they expect the U.S. to enter a recession by the middle of next year. By some measures, the U.S. is already in a recession , popularly defined as two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth. This is bad news for consumers and businesses. Consumers, who are already feeling the impact of inflation that is running at 8.5% and higher interest rates used to dampen it are likely to batten down the hatches should the economy turn negative and companies begin mass layoffs. There are already signs that consumers are beginning to roll over. According to the U.S. Commerce Department, consumer spending rose a tepid 0.1% in June after falling 0.3% in May. Should things worsen on the consumer front, it could spell bad news for the economy overall, and also for certain stocks that are reliant on robust consumer spending to keep their share prices elevated.

I relocated five times in one year, and I did it without a car thanks to these tips. Getting familiar with airlines'' luggage policies and pairing down your belongings are essential. Keep an eye on rideshare apps throughout the day to gauge how much a trip will cost ahead of time. I moved on my own for the first time in 2020 after deciding to leave my marriage. Little did I know, I was going to move a total of five times across four different states that year, and I was going to do it all without access to a car. Here are the tips I wish I knew before my first move. The moving process can be stressful, so don''t be afraid to ask for help Moving without a car requires you to be resourceful, and that includes tapping on all expertise possible. After all, moving can be a lot for one person to handle on their own. The first time I packed up my belongings, I was so focused on the logistics that I didn''t ask my friends or family for help or advice. In hindsight, that was a mistake.

DALLAS (AP) — Labor unions are pressuring U.S. airlines not to buy back their own stock and instead to spend the money on hiring more workers and fixing problems that caused widespread flight delays and cancellations this summer. The unions said Thursday that the four largest U.S. airlines spent more than $39 billion on stock buybacks from 2014 through 2019 rather than making investments to help employees and passengers. The airlines are currently barred from buying back their own shares as a condition of $54 billion in federal pandemic aid, but that prohibition ends after Sept. 30. Union officials worry that buybacks will come back now that most U.S. airlines have returned to profitability after huge losses in 2020 and 2021. The unions, which represent pilots, flight attendants, mechanics, baggage handlers and other workers, launched a campaign and petition drive that portrays buyouts as a giveaway to Wall Street and a tool for airline executives to boost their own stock-based compensation. “We paused the greed in aviation for a little while,” said Sara Nelson, president of the Association of Flight Attendants.

It’s been an extremely difficult few years for the airline industry. Carriers around the world were more directly impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic than just about any other economic sector. The International Air Transport Association estimates that the worldwide pandemic cost airlines more than $200 billion in financial losses since 2020. Airline stocks have been decimated as a result, with most still trading more than 50% lower than where they were at before the coronavirus was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). This opens up an opportunity for investors to pick up some of the best-undervalued airline stocks. The good news is that travel has returned this year and airlines in the U.S. and abroad are starting to show signs of recovery. Many carriers recently announced a return to profitability and are aggressively paying down the debt they accumulated over the last two years as their planes sat idle. It likely won’t be long before airline stocks once again take off.
