If you've ever had your suitcase come down the airport baggage carousel with a new scratch, dent, or black mark that wasn’t there before, you’re not alone. I’ve had my favorite carry-on come back looking like it went through a war zone, which is when I started considering luggage covers. But if you're planning to use one, you might wonder: Are luggage covers TSA-approved?

The short answer is yes, luggage covers are TSA-approved, but there are a few things you should know before wrapping your suitcase up like a Christmas present.

This European city rewards public transport and bike users with free coffee and museum discounts

If you're visiting Copenhagen this summer, you can get rewarded for traveling sustainably

Copenhagen

Copenhagen is once again leading the charge for sustainable tourism with the return of its popular CopenPay initiative. After a successful debut last year, the program has been expanded significantly, offering even more ways for visitors to earn perks by making eco-friendly choices during their stay in the Danish capital.

“By integrating more responsible actions into the visitor experience, CopenPay is redefining how we in Copenhagen approach tourism. Rather than bringing more tourists to the city, the goal with CopenPay is to nudge our visitors and raise their awareness about traveling in a more sustainable way - exploring Copenhagen more responsibly while being rewarded with unique experiences,” says Søren Tegen Pedersen, CEO of Wonderful Copenhagen.

JetBlue to take flight in new Dunkin’ themed aircraft

JetBlue runs on Dunkin'

Dunkin' JetBlue plane

Your next JetBlue flight from Boston Logan International Airport could be aboard the airline's newest Dunkin' themed aircraft. The Brewing Altitude aircraft, announced yesterday, features Dunkin's iconic pink and orange branding. Unveiled in Boston at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, this new plane livery showcases JetBlue's investment in New England, where both brands have a long history. The bright coloring of this new A320 aircraft is brought to life with a playful donut and coffee motif, inspiring both coffee and travel fans alike.

The partnership between Dunkin' and JetBlue dates back nearly 20 years to 2006, when JetBlue served customers Dunkin's original blend mid-flight. In 2011, Dunkin' became the airline's official coffee provider onboard all flights. Now, the iconic partnership between these two brands continues with the launch of this bold new aircraft. Now, JetBlue travelers can celebrate the collaboration at 35,000 feet above in this new custom-Dunkin' plane.
