Top 5 / North America

Staycations are a great way to get to know your city better. Personal finance site Wallethub looked at 182 cities across 40 categories, like movie and bowling costs, spas and wellness centers, to calculate the most fun yet budget-friendly cities in the United States for a staycation.

Orlando

Home to Disney World and other theme parks, Orlando came out on top. Orlando also ranked No. 1 for food and entertainment, no surprise given the sheer number of options here for family-fun parks.

Honolulu

The Hawai’ian capital scored well in categories like recreation, no doubt due to opportunities afforded by its beaches. Similarly, it scored well for its relaxation factor.

Chicago

The city scored first place for recreation, with options like Navy Pier, Lakefront Trail, Willis Tower and more.

Seattle

The Emerald City scored well in the recreation and food and entertainment categories, which helped bring up its low-ranking in the “relaxation” category. Visitors and locals alike enjoy spending time at attractions like the Great Wheel and Pike Place Market, as well as the area’s numerous biking and hiking trails.

Portland

The Oregon city, known for its scenic surroundings and great food, scored well in the recreation and food and entertainment categories.

Interior Upgrades Begin Rolling Out Across United Fleet

United Airlines is in the midst of a major initiative to modernize its fleet over the next several years. After first announcing the plan in 2021, planes fitted with United’s signature interior are finally beginning to appear across the airline’s narrowbody fleet of Boeing and Airbus planes. United flyers are sure to notice these enhancements from the moment they step on board: Each new or updated plane sports remodeled seats, seatback entertainment screens for everyone, Bluetooth connectivity and more, all adding up to a better experience on every journey.
