Someplace new? Try the Marshall Islands, Where's the Trivago Guy, Delta revamps it's boarding

Want to try someplace new? Consider the Marshall Islands!

The Marshall Islands are an archipelago in the Pacific Ocean, perfect for a summer vacation. The islands have beaches, diving opportunities, cultural experiences, and affordability. Visitors can explore the islands by outrigger canoe or relax on pristine beaches. World War II wreck diving sites are a popular attraction for scuba enthusiasts. Budget travelers will find the Marshall Islands appealing because many activities are free.

Hold onto your hats, travel fans! The iconic Trivago Guy, Tim Williams, has been replaced. The Texas-born actor recently learned his fate after seeing a new Trivago commercial featuring a different face. While there were hints (Trivago re-running old ads with him and his agent's vague responses), the new ad featuring an AI-powered actor confirmed the switch.

Williams, now back in the U.S. after two decades in Germany, shared this news in a recent video chat with Skift.

Delta Airlines is making a tweak to its boarding process! Say goodbye to confusing lettered groups ("Sky Priority" anyone?) and hello to a simpler numbered system. Starting May 1st, Delta will assign passengers boarding zones instead of the current class-based system. This might seem like a big change, but experts say Delta is catching up with other airlines that already use numbered zones. The good news? Delta says this will make boarding a breeze for infrequent fliers and those who need to speak English fluently. So, next time you fly Delta, watch for your zone number to ensure a smooth boarding experience!
