Travel Tidbits from Airports Near You

A lot is happening at airports around the country this week. Here’s a round-up of some of what we’ve spotted so far.

First – see if you can catch this deal:

Low-cost Icelandic airline PLAY is offering flights from the U.S. to Iceland for $99 and to London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, and Paris for $109 from October 24 through 31. Book it here.

This deal is valid for flights booked from November 2024 through January 2025.

Trick-or-Treat at the airport? That could be fun.

In some cities, they do safe trick-or-treating events at the mall. But in Canton, Ohio, kids will head to the Akron-Canton Airport (CAK) on Halloween.

It’s Sunday – the day Stuck at the Airport takes a look at some of the fun, inexpensive and locally-themed items you can find at airports.

This week’s treats come from the Salt Lake City International Airport, which has recently upgraded many shops and restaurants.

Luckily, they still sell these:
