As if nonstop flights to Malta hadn’t been big news enough, Delta continues to build up on their European network by adding the first-ever nonstop service between the United States and…
Sardinia!
Italy’s second-largest island (after Sicily), and one of the leading beach destinations in the Mediterranean, Sardinia is famous for its Caribbean-like white sand beaches, ancient heritage, hearty food, and rolling vineyards.
Despite its undeniable popularity among Europeans, Sardinia remains a relatively hidden gem across the pond. That’s largely due to its lack of transatlantic connectivity.
Starting May 20, 2026, this will no longer be the case:
As confirmed in a press release issued this week, Delta will become the first airline to service an inaugural U.S. to Sardinia route. More specifically, they will offer nonstop flights from their New York (JFK) hub to Olbia-Costa Smeralda (OLB), in the north of Sardinia.
The route will be operational four times a week, on the wings of the Boeing 767-300ER, equipped with Delta One, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort and Delta Main.
Their equivalent to First Class, Delta One features lie-flat seats, chef-signed meals to be washed down with Taittinger champagne, and Missoni amenities. The remaining seating categories may not be as well-resourced, but they do include curated dining and Delta Studio entertainment.
26 seats are reserved for Delta One, 18 for Premium Select guests, 21 in Comfort, and 151 in Main. Timetables are yet to be announced; however, we do know round-trip fares will average $1,100 for the latter (economy).
Considering Sardinia’s relative anonymity among Americans, Delta’s announcement took many by surprise. If you were wondering how this offbeat Italian island got picked out of numerous other Mediterranean hotspots, this is what we went down:
Delta held a so-called Route Race, inviting both Delta stakeholders and employees, and SkyMiles Members to vote on their preferred new destination for summer 2026.
Sardinia ranked in a highly-competitive top three, alongside Malta and Ibiza. Following five days of voting, with over 150,000 SkyMiles member votes cast, Sardinia surprisingly raced ahead of Spain’s party-centric island.
Simultaneously, Delta people chose Malta. Thus, they were elected as Delta’s new European destinations, both previously unserved from the U.S., and in Sardinia’s case, the first-ever direct Transatlantic connection.
If you’ve got so far in reading, and you’re wondering why pick Sardinia over Rome, the Amalfi Coast, or even Sicily, here’s the briefest summary of what makes the ‘European Caribbean’ so fascinating—as if that title weren’t enough indication.
You’ll be flying to Olbia, a small ciy in the north of Sardinia acting as a gateway to the stunning Costa Smeralda. As the name suggests, picture turquoise-colored seas lining white-sand shores.
Costa Smeralda is also peppered with lively Sardinian towns, like Porto Cervo, distinguished by its luxury shopping scene, yacht-dominated marina, and upscale resorts.
Looking for something a little more off-the-beaten-path? Check out San Pantaleo, a rustic mountain village overlooking the coast, criss-crossed by cobblestone streets, and home to a plethora of family-owned trattorie serving freshly-caught seafood and homemade pasta.
Trattoria Balbacana is particularly popular among locals.
Keen on some island-hopping? Take a day trip to the Maddalena archipelago, just off the Emerald Coast. The main landmass in the island chain, La Maddalena, is a short 15-minute boat ride from Palau port, and it’s known for its collection of pastel-painted buildings.
They come in every color under the sun: pink, ocher, yellow, green, coral, you name it.
Although Olbia is primarily known for being in the vicinity of Costa Smeralda, you can travel beyond the Blue Flag coast towards Bosa, yet another color-burst of a city built on the banks of a scenic river, and at the foot of a monumental ancient castle.
On the northwest coast, Alghero is a must-see stop. A unique walled city influenced by Catalan architecture, it has prominent sea walls, an incredible selection of restaurants, and the nearby Capo Caccia play host to the myth-enveloped Neptune’s Grotto.
In the event you’re continuing your journey south, make sure you add the bustling Sardinian capital, Cagliari, to your list. With its wall-encircled center, traversed by medieval pathways, historic towers, and Roman amphitheater carved into hard rock, it just exudes Old World charm.
A short 30-minute drive out of Cagliari, Cantine Argiolas is one of the most notorious family wine producers on the island, and they offer wine tasting tours.
Though not as famous as the northern beaches, the coastal stretch in southern Sardinia is equally-gorgeous, with Chia and Villasimius in particular standing out with their soft cream-colored sands, and teal, warm seas.

For years, savvy American travelers have dreamed of an easier way to reach one of Europe’s most stunning and historically rich island gems. Tucked away in the heart of the Mediterranean, this tiny nation has always been a bucket-list destination, but reaching it required a long, often frustrating journey with at least one connection through a busy European hub.
Well, get ready to update your travel plans, because that’s all about to change.
Here at Travel Off Path, we’re all about giving you the breaking news that makes your travel dreams a reality. In a landmark announcement that has been more than two decades in the making, Delta Air Lines has just confirmed it will launch the first regular, nonstop flights between the United States and the beautiful island of Maltain over 25 years.
A True Game-Changer For U.S. Travelers
This isn’t just another new route; it’s a historic breakthrough. For the first time since the mid-1990s, Americans will be able to fly directly to this Mediterranean paradise, slashing travel time and making a trip more accessible than ever before.
The Malta Hotels and Restaurants Association (MHRA) is hailing the news as a “game-changer” and the “missing piece of the puzzle” for the country’s tourism industry. For years, the lack of direct flights has been a major hurdle, but this new connection is set to open the floodgates for American travelers eager to explore Malta’s unique blend of ancient history, stunning coastlines, and vibrant culture.
All The Flight Details You Need To Know
Delta has laid out a clear plan for the new service, giving travelers plenty of time to get this incredible trip on their calendars.

New York (JFK) to Malta (MLA)
The inaugural flight is scheduled for June 7, 2026.
The service will operate three times per week.
Flights will run from June through October 2026.
A wide-body Boeing 767-300ER with multiple cabin classes.
The best news? The flights are expected to go on sale soon, allowing travelers to lock in their plans well in advance for the 2026 summer and fall seasons.
Why Is Malta About To Be The Hottest Ticket In Europe?
So, why is this new route such a big deal? Because Malta is an absolute gem. This tiny island nation packs an unbelievable punch. Its capital, Valletta, is a UNESCO World Heritage city, a stunning fortress built by the Knights of St. John with golden-hued limestone buildings and a grand harbor that is one of the most beautiful in the world.
Beyond the capital, you’ll find ancient megalithic temples that are older than the pyramids, the silent, walled medieval city of Mdina, and the crystal-clear waters of the famous Blue Lagoon on the island of Comino.
Malta’s tourism authority has made it clear they are targeting high-value American travelers who are interested in culture, history, and gastronomy. This new direct flight is the key to unlocking that potential, making it easier than ever for Americans to discover a side of Europe they’ve only dreamed of. For 2026, the “hidden gem of the Mediterranean” is officially on the map.

Stunning architecture, fascinating cities, and beautiful Mediterranean beaches.
It’s no wonder Morocco is having a moment!
Where else in the world can you be lounging on a Mediterranean beach one day and exploring the Sahara desert the next?
According to the authorities in the Moroccan Ministry of Economy and Finance, the country recorded a whopping 10 million visitors by the end of July, setting a new record.
And the good news is that Americans can fly nonstop to this lesser-known Mediterranean hotspot this fall.
Flying To Morocco
Morocco might sound like a far-flung and exotic destination, but it actually has great flight connections to the U.S.
You’ll have two options when flying nonstop to Morocco: you can either fly to Casablanca or to Marrakech.
Direct flights to Casablanca will depart from Miami, New York, and Washington D.C.
Flying from Miami from October 18 to October 27 nonstop in economy class will cost $774. This flight is operated by the Moroccan airline Royal Air Maroc.
I often fly with overseas airlines because it saves so much money, but if you’d prefer a U.S. airline then the same route on the same dates with American Airlines will cost $1,422 for an economy class roundtrip.
The flight time on this route is 8 hours 15 minutes outbound and 9 hours 15 minutes inbound.
Direct flights to Marrakech will depart from New York, and these tend to be a little more expensive than nonstop flights to Casablanca.
A round trip from October 24 to October 30 in economy class will cost $1,709.
This is a walled medieval city that is tightly packed with commerce and people.
Once inside it has a mazelike feel. This is the place to shop in thriving souks, or to stop for mint tea and watch the world go by.
Tip: If you want to take a souvenir home, then you can buy handmade textiles and pottery here.
Other highlights in the city include the Jardin Majorelle which is a landscape and botanical garden with cubist elements and buildings in a beautiful shade of blue.
Finally, Marrakech boasts some of the best palaces in Morocco.
Visit the Bahia Palace for some of the best examples of traditional Moroccan marble and zellij tiles, fretwork, and ornate decoration.
Why Visit Casablanca
Casablanca is a stunning coastal city which means it offers the best of both worlds. Cultural explorations and lazy days on the beach.
Casablanca has a very different vibe to Marrakech. It feels much more relaxed and the people here are less focused on tourists (which can sometimes feel overwhelming in Marrakech).
From a cultural perspective the main attraction in Casablanca is the Hassan II Mosque. This has a 210m minaret topped with lasers directed toward Mecca and it stands in prime position over the water, meaning it dominates the city skyline.
Muslims can enter the Hassan II Mosque at no charge for daily prayer. If you’re non-Muslim then you will need a guide to enter the mosque.
Book this directly with the mosque for the best price, which is 140dhs ($14). Other tours will collect you from your hotel, but these are significantly more expensive.
Tip for female travelers: If you’re visiting Morocco (or any other Muslim country) and you want to visit the mosques then carry a scarf or wrap that you can use to cover your hair. You won’t be allowed in without one!
I often pack a lightweight beach wrap that can double as a hair wrap to save space in my suitcase.
You can’t talk about Casablanca without talking about its beaches!
The Sidi Abderrahman Beach has the calmest waters here, so it is the perfect spot for swimming and other watersports.
If you just want to relax by the shoreline then opt for the fully equipped Plage Madam Choual.

Just because summer’s coming to an end doesn’t mean your travel plans have to, too.
The insufferable crowds have started to dissipate, temperatures are coming back down to Earth, and best of all, airfare to some of the world’s most incredible destinations has plummeted, giving adventurous travelers on a budget the opportunity of a lifetime.
No matter how long you want your flights to be or what you’re looking to get out of your end-of-season vacation, chances are you’ll find at least one place that’ll spark your wanderlust somewhere in this article.
Bangkok, Thailand
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably spent a good chunk of summer sighing at pictures of Wat Arun, Wat Phra Kaew, and Grand Palace, wishing you’d gotten to see Bangkok along with the millions of lucky travelers that flocked to the Thai capital these past couple of months.
As it turns out, though, all the waiting around and severe FOMO might’ve been worth it – plane ticket prices between the U.S. and Bangkok have officially reached their annual low!
According to Skyscanner, round-trip tickets will start at just $597 this month (and no, that’s not a typo).
Granted, that price tag only applies to a couple of specific New York flights, but ticket prices are being discounted all across the board, making it relatively easy for U.S. travelers to fly to the Thai capital and back for well under $1000 – considering you’ll be covering close to 9000 miles each way, that’s a steal!
Seoul, South Korea
Be it the fantastic sights, fascinating culture, dreamy 77°F (25°C) weather, or affordable prices, there’s just something about Seoul this time of year that travelers just can’t seem to get enough of.
And if the premise of Bukchon Hanok Village, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and Namsan Park amidst the color-changing leaves isn’t enough to get you to book a ticket to Seoul ASAP, checking out the current airfare rates might just be that last push you need.
If you book now, you’ll be able to find round-trip tickets priced at just a little under $700, and a quick Google search will tell you that that’s a deal you just don’t come across very often.
San Juan, Puerto Rico
Let’s say the idea of a 10+ hour flight doesn’t sit quite right with you, but you still want to take advantage of the seasonal price drops – that’s when you book a flight to Puerto Rico instead.
Take advantage of these last bits of summer sun by lounging around in one of the many, many stunning beaches of San Juan (Escambrón, in particular, is not to be missed).
Not only are temperatures right now at a perfect 75°F to 88°F (24°C to 31°C) range, but tickets have also reached their annual low, starting at just $70-something for a round-trip flight!
Lima, Peru
Speaking of Latin American gems you can visit on a budget, I don’t think Lima gets enough credit for how much of an immersive experience it promises its tourists.
Here, you’ll spend your days strolling along the stunning Malecón, exploring Plaza Mayor and the Monastery of San Francisco, indulging in the freshest, most succulent ceviche, and basking in that 68°F (20°C) weather.
And you’ll get to do all that for pretty cheap, too!
Starting with travel, you can expect to pay anywhere between $290 and $500 for a round-trip flight from most airports, which in and of itself can take a lot of financial pressure off your trip.
Accommodation follows a similar pricing trend, especially now that the summer crowds have calmed down.
Your average 3-star hotel near the city center charges anywhere between $15 and $40 a night. For example, you can stay in Casa Lima right in the Lima Historic Centre for just $22 a night!
Considering that most restaurant meals hover around the $10 mark (per person), it’s safe to assume that your daily expenses won’t exceed $100.
Split, Croatia
Planning a budget-friendly European city break in the fall can be tricky since that’s when prices can actually start rising, but there’s one (gorgeous) exception to this rule.
You’ve all heard of Dubrovnik and while,yes, it really is as jaw-dropping as they say, it can also turn into an overcrowded nightmare this time of year.
That’s why I’ve always favored Split when visiting Croatia.
It boasts the same unbelievable views and beachy allure but with far fewer people and better prices – talk about a win-win!
But if you want to get the most out of your Split trip this year, you’ll have to book those tickets fast – this September you can get there and back for under $500, and believe me, that’s not the case the rest of the year, so if there’s ever been a time to be spontaneous in your travels, it’s right now.

An abundance of new nonstop flights has made Europe more accessible than ever for U.S. travelers this summer.
And the good news is that that’s a trend set to continue into fall too!
More American travelers have visited Portugal this year than ever before.
According to Portugal Resident more than a million travelers from the U.S. visited the country between January and June this year.
This is a figure that has almost doubled in 2 years, which is frankly incredible!
The reason? The Capital and largest city in Portugal, Lisbon, is connected to a whopping 11 different U.S. cities.
Flying Nonstop To Lisbon
During the summer months, you can fly nonstop to Lisbon from 11 U.S. cities, and flights from 7 cities operate year-round.
New York, Chicago, Miami, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Boston, and San Francisco are the seven cities offering year-round flights that you can book right now.
January is the cheapest month to fly from the U.S. to Lisbon, with nonstop return flights available for under $500 if you book now.
However, flights in October and November are just as affordable, with options under $600, and these are the best months to visit the city.
I looked at nonstop flight options for October and found that New York and Miami were the 2 most affordable cities to fly from.
This flight is with Air Portugal with an outbound flight time of 6 hours 55 minutes and an inbound flight time of 8 hours.
United Airlines also operates on this route if you’d prefer a U.S. carrier, but for the same dates the flight cost was $1,214.
If Miami is a more convenient departure airport or connection point for you, you’ll be pleased to hear that Miami is the second cheapest U.S. departure airport for Lisbon in October.
A nonstop round trip in economy class departing on October 16 and returning on October 23 will cost $715.
This flight is with Air Portugal and has an outbound flight time of 8 hours 20 minutes and an inbound flight time of 9 hours 10 minutes.
Alternatively, you could fly the same route on the same dates with JetBlue for $1,236.
Why Visit Lisbon?
Europe is historically the stomping ground of us Brits during the summer months, with Britons topping the list of visitor numbers for almost every European country.
But you’re just as likely to bump into an American tourist than a British one in Lisbon this year.
And it’s easy to see why!
As well as the incredible connectivity, Lisbon is also an amazing city to explore. Lisbon is Portugal’s hilly, coastal capital city.
In the summer you can have the best of both worlds’ here: culturally significant historical sites and lazy beach days.
This means you can experience Europe’s beaches and its rich history in one city.
If you like mild weather and fewer crowds, fall is the best time to explore Lisbon.
Because it is such a culturally fascinating city, I love Lisbon in the fall, when the temperature is cool enough for plenty of walking and exploring.
Some of the best things to see and do in Lisbon include climbing to the Castle of São Jorge and then strolling through Alfama.
The Castle of Sao Jorge sits on Lisbon’s highest hill and looks over the city, making it one of the most iconic attractions. Entrance costs €15,00 ($16.60) per adult.
Be sure to visit the Praça do Comércio which is is a large, harbour-facing plaza and one of the most picturesque plazas in the city. Entrance is free and this is a great place to sit, relax, and people watch.
Art enthusiasts shouldn’t miss MAAT – the Art, Architecture and Technology Museum which is in the heart of the city overlooking the water. The building is a modern architectural wonder in its own right!
Tickets cost €11.00 ($12) per person, but plan your trip in advance because the Museum is only open from Wednesday to Monday.

The appeal of Europe for American travelers shows no signs of abating, but instead of spending time in France or Italy, there’s a new hot spot in town!
Research from the Olive Press has found that the number of U.S. tourists visiting Spain is higher than ever.
I’ll admit, I love Spain!
In fact, a year I haven’t spent some time in the country is a very bad year. And it seems like a huge number of American travelers agree with me.
American visitors to Spain are up by 15% compared to last year, and the country welcomed more than 2 million U.S. visitors in the first half of the year.
As well as being a beautiful and culturally rich country to visit year-round, getting to Spain is also wonderfully convenient! Americans can fly nonstop to these 5 destinations in Spain this fall:
Air Connections Between The U.S. And Spain
In recent years, the air connections between the U.S. and Spain have increased considerably, which explains why travel between the two countries has surged in popularity so fast.
This fall, U.S. travelers can fly nonstop to Barcelona, Madrid, Tenerife, Malaga, and Palma.
Barcelona
Barcelona is the second-largest city in Spain, and this October, you can fly to this culture-rich hot spot from 9 different U.S. cities:
Miami
Chicago
New York
San Francisco
Boston
Atlanta
Philadelphia
Washington D.C.
Los Angeles
The 2 cheapest departure points, at the time of writing, are Miami and Chicago.
Flying out on October 20-October 25 with Iberia Air (a well-known Spanish carrier) will cost $582 per person for an economy class round trip. The outbound flight time for this route is 9 h 50 and the inbound flight time is 9 h 25.
Barcelona is a fascinating city best visited in the fall.
It’s still warm enough to sit outside in street cafes, eating tapas and watching the world go by, but the crowds are much lower.
The works of Gaudi are the highlight of Barcelona for me. These include the city’s most famous attraction, the unfinished Sagrada Familia cathedral.
Then go to the incredible, vibrant, Park Guell, better known as Gaudi Park. Its full of whimsical mosaics, sculptures, and awe-inspiring architecture. It’s one of my favorite spots in all of Barcelona.
Madrid
Barcelona is perhaps the best-known city in Spain among tourists, but Madrid is actually the nation’s capital.
In October U.S. travelers can fly to Madrid nonstop from New York, Boston, Washington D.C, Miami, Chicago, Dallas, Charlotte, Philidelphia, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Atlanta.
In October the 2 cheapest cities to fly from are New York and Boston.
The outbound flight time is 7 hours 15 minutes and the inbound flight time is 8 hours 15 minutes.
Madrid has a rich cultural heritage and some of the main, must-visit attractions in the city include the Prado Museum and the Royal Palace, which is the largest palace in Europe.
When you’re ready to relax, go and sit in the Puerta del Sol.
This public square is bursting with life, a great place for people-watching and experiencing what life in Madrid really feels like.
Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest and most populated of the Canary Islands. This is an island chain that is owned by Spain but actually located closer to Africa.
The Canary Islands are around 100 km off the coast of Morocco.
You can now fly nonstop to Tenerife from New York, which is the first direct route from the U.S. to the island.
The cheapest dates to fly to Tenerife in October are from 17-25. A round-trip economy class flight on these dates would set you back $694.
This flight is operated by United Airlines with an outbound flight time of 7 hours 5 minutes and an inbound flight time of 7 hours 55 minutes.
They boast year-round sunshine, and Tenerife has a fascinating, almost otherworldly volcanic landscape while still having some of the most beautiful European beaches.
The great thing about the Canary Islands is how well connected they are: you can fly into Tenerife then use the inter island ferries to explore all of the islands in the chain.
Malaga
New Yorkers are blessed with flight options if they want a getaway to Spain.
As well as having the only direct route between the U.S. and Tenerife, New York also boasts the only nonstop route between the U.S. and Malaga.
This routes stop operating for the season at the of September, so this is an ideal option for an early fall getaway. To travel from September 18 to September 25 with United Airlines will cost $859.
The outbound flight time is 7 hours 40 minutes, and the inbound flight time is 8 hours 35 minutes.
Malaga is a great place to visit in fall if you’re looking for uncrowded beaches, with the most famous beach here being La Malagueta.
Picasso was born in Malaga, and the city is incredibly proud of its famous son.
The house where he was born has been turned into a small, but genuinely fascinating, museum which also contains some of his works. It’s so interesting that I’ve visited it twice!

We get it, it is home to the most beautiful, unspoiled coastal scenery, waters of the brightest-blue, and picture-perfect towns that look ripped out the pages of a fairytale novel, but there’s just one catch many are failing to take into consideration.
Never mind the overtourism and inflated prices, it isflaming hot right now, with wildfires raging on in Greek islands and travel alerts being issued for parts of Spain and Italy as temperatures soar above safe levels:
We’re not talking a cozy, balmy warm; we’re talking torrid, unmanageable, get-me-out-of-here kind of warm.
Seeing some hotels in Greek islands already being evacuated again as dangerous fires break out, we wouldn’t be the first ones to bank on a Mediterranean getaway this season.
But there may be an alternative.
Away from the Med, there’s this paradisiacal Portuguese island with emerald nature and perfect weather––not unpleasantly warm, but not too chill, either––and you can even fly there nonstop from the States:
It’s Time You Stop Sleeping On Madeira
Though it is hundreds of miles away from Portugal’s mainland, and in fact, closer to the coast of West Africa than it is to Europe, Madeira is a remote Atlantic island the Portuguese have held since the 15th century, and believe it or not, an increasingly-popular year-round destination.
Before we get to the actual good stuff, here’s a couple of equally-interesting facts about Madeira:
Despite being an integral part of Portugal, it is a self-governing autonomous community with a distinct character, and at times, you might even struggle to consider both as being part of the same national entity.
For starters, mainland Portugal is much older: its History starts as far back as Gaelic tribes and the Ancient Roman Empire, and similarly to Spain, it has verdant plains, a sandy coast and exceedingly-high temperatures over summer.
Madeira is a volcanic island traversed by towering peaks. As it is nearer the tropics–once again, it’s in proximity to Africa as opposed to its home continent–seasons are not as well defined as they are in the European mainland.
Now we get to the good part.
Why Madeira Is A Year-Round Sunny Paradise
Madeira is nearer the tropics, where the climate remains largely at a constant irrespective of seasonal changes, and come summer or winter, it’s never too hot, nor too cold to visit:
Right now in Funchal, the coastal capital of Madeira, it’s a pleasant 82.4°F during the day, dropping to 71.6°F in the evening, while other parts of the island that are higher up, it ranges from 55.4°F to an acceptable 69.8°F.
The trend repeats itself throughout the year, with an only-moderately chilly 69.8°F in Funchal in December, and some rain expected, but not an awful lot.
As you might have guessed, wildfires over summer are an uncommon occurrence, and when winter comes, snow is an even rarer phenomenon unless you’re climbing up to some of the tallest peaks where some dusting is expected.
In other words, you won’t be risking heat exhaustion while exploring Madeira, and boy, is there an entire world of natural wonders to be braved:
The Most Beautiful Nature Anywhere In Europe
Mainland Portugal is best known for its rich Ancient Roman and Baroque heritage, with cities like Lisbon and Porto concentrating a great deal of the country’s regal palaces and most ornate churches, but Madeira, on the other hand, is all about the thriving nature.
We’re talking epic hikes into the sunrise, swimming off a pristine, rugged coast in nature-made volcanic pools, footpaths locally known as levadas that lead to lush-green jungles and hidden waterfalls, and botanical gardens that seem to be in a permanent state of bloom.
It’s no wonder Madeira is called Land of Eternal Spring (it might as well be):
Epic Hikes Await
The most epic hike in Madeira, the climb from Areeiro to Ruivo Peak, takes you through highland scenery, crossing tunnels and zig-zagging across the dramatic landscape.
In the end, you are rewarded with sweeping vistas of the sea of mountains from the island’s tallest summit.
Get your comfy hiking shoes on, and make sure you pack plenty of water bottles and protein bars: there’s no stopping once you cross the infamous Stairway to Heaven (and if you suffer from vertigo, make sure you don’t look down).
Luckily for beginners like us, we can always book a sunset hike tour dropping us off at the first peak, and then proceed to summit the second––and highest one––before getting picked up again, for a fixed price of $35.98 on GetYourGuide.
There are many more peaks to conquer all around Madeira, 147 mountains to be precise, but you’ll want to set some time aside for some beachside relaxation.
Volcanic PoolsAnd Mystical Forests
For that, head to Porto Moniz, in the island’s north, where you’ll find some of the best volcanic pools with crystal-clear water, which as you may know, are not as easy to come across in the Atlantic as they are in the Med.
Porto Moniz is also a lively resort town lined with beachfront hotels and oceanfront restaurants, and it’s one of the gateways for reaching the UNESCO-listed Fanal, an eerie ancient forest dating back millions of years that’s best experienced at dawn, when the mist is yet to dissipate.
Perhaps the most iconic postcard shot in all of Madeira, Valley of the Nuns is yet another popular stopover for nature enthusiasts: a sleepy isolated village nestled in the center of a valley, it is flanked by imposing fog-crowned elevations almost bordering on ethereal.
For those epic coastal views, drive towards Ponta de São Lourenço, Madeira’s easternmost tip, and a rocky peninsula jutting out into the azure Atlantic: the kind of stuff that needs to be seen with your own eyes to be believed.
Has Madeira Been An Underrated Cultural Hotspot All Along?
The nature may be the star of the show in Madeira, but let’s not forget about its cultural contributions:
More specifically, the capital, Funchal, is a prime example of Portuguese colonial architecture, with its old cathedral, built from blocks of native volcanic rock and with a magnificent roof of cedar wood, the late medieval Convent of Santa Clara, and a well-preserved Old City.
Taking the cable car from the maze of cobbled streets starting from the ever-busier Central Market, you’ll hover above the terracotta roofs of historic Funchal, all the way up to the hilly suburb of Monte (translatable as Mount), best known for its exotic Tropical Garden.
For enthusiasts of recent history, particularly football, you don’t want to miss the CR7 Museum, which is celebratory of Funchal’s biggest international export: Cristiano Ronaldo, who was born and raised in Madeira before taking on the world.
Funchal is up there with Lisbon as one of Portugal’s trendiest summer getaways, and one of Europe’s fastest-growing city destinations, according to a recent research published by ForwardKeys.
A short 24-minute drive from Funchal, Ponta do Sol is a dreamy oceanfront village surrounded by banana plantations, and its Nossa Senhora da Luz Church is among Madeira’s last-surviving from the early colonial settlement.
Further west of Ponta do Sol, the laid-back coastal town of Ribeira Brava is perfect for unwinding, sampling traditional Portuguese food––the drenched-in-oil lagareiro octopus is a must-try delicacy––and going for long promenade walks.
On the north coast of the island, there is yet another cultural hub to be found in Santana, where houses are built in a unique triangular shape, and topped with thatched roofs––in the center of town, the whitewashed Baroque Santana Church is not to be missed.
Madeira Is Incredibly Affordable By European Standards
Budget-wise, Madeira is one of the cheapest summer hotspots in Europe at present, with particularly-low prices observed for food and drinks, and attractive room rates.
With local restaurants boasting an abundance of local produce and many tourism providers (hotels included) growing their own vegetables and fruit, consumer prices in Madeira are markedly lower than those in the European mainland.
On average, tourists spend $34 on meals per day, as estimated by Budget Your Trip, though that is unlikely to include elaborate, three-course dinners in Funchal’s top-rated Alta Vista Restaurant.
If you’re keen on keeping costs down, there are still plenty of $1.50 custard tarts, Portuguese-style, delicious $3 savory pastries, and $2.18 poncha shots to be had.
As for accommodation, the average visitor spends $113 per night on hotels, though there’s far-cheaper privately-managed guesthouses listing rooms from $68 on Booking.com, like Residencial Chafariz in Funchal, and Pensão Fernandes in Porto Moniz, costing $87 to book per night.
Overall, a one-week trip to Madeira can cost $701 per person, or the equivalent in euro, excluding flights.
Fly Nonstop From Boston And Toronto To Madeira
Recently, Portuguese carrier Azores Airline launched new nonstop flights from Boston, Massachusetts (BOS), and Toronto, Canada (YYZ) to Funchal (FNC), eliminating the need for Americans and Canadians alike to first touch town in continental Portugal ahead of connecting onward to Madeira.
On both routes, flights operate weekly, with departures from Boston on Tuesdays and returns from Funchal scheduled for the following Wednesdays; as for Toronto, departures take place on Saturdays, and homebound flights leave on Fridays.
Azores Airlines has deployed a Boeing 767-300ER on the new routes and plans to maintain this Transatlantic service throughout the peak travel season.
On top of Boston and Toronto, Azores Airlines already transports passengers from New York (JFK) to Funchal every Sunday, with return trips scheduled for Mondays.
Vini, our senior lead writer at Travel Off Path, has over 60+ countries under his belt (and currently weaving tales from Paris!), and a knack for turning off-the-beaten-path experiences into informative stories that will have you packing your bags.

Visiting Europe in spring is one of those things every avid traveler needs to experience at least once in a lifetime, but there’s one tiny problem keeping us back from setting off on the transatlantic getaway of our dreams – the cost.
While most European hotels and short-term rentals are reasonably priced, at least compared to similar places in the U.S., airfare can put a big dent in your travel budget—after all, you’re probably embarking on a 7+ hour flight, so paying extra is to be expected.
However, what if I told you that right now, you can fly to some of Europe’s biggest hubs and back for as little as $169?
That’s right, airfare to five of the biggest European hotspots has officially reached its yearly low, according to Skyscanner, so if you’re thinking about making 2024 the year when you finally take that long-awaited spring vacation across the Atlantic, these are some of the top destinations you’ll want to consider:
Paris
Let’s start off with Paris since it’s the capital of the most visited country on Earth and probably one of the highest-ticket items on your travel bucket list.
Round-trip tickets between the U.S. and the French capital start at just $270 this April.
The next time airfare rates will come close to this level again will be in November when the weather in the city is rainy and dreary, so budget-conscious travelers, you need to move fast!
And remember, these same exact tickets can sell for up to $500 or more come summer, especially this year, when Paris is hosting the 2024 Olympics, so timing your visit right can end up saving you hundreds if not thousands of dollars (if you’re traveling in a group of 5 or more people).
Vienna
The Austrian capital exudes a type of regal charm that’s just too hard to resist, and as someone lucky enough to have visited the city during spring, I can attest that the experience is truly worth every penny, especially when flight prices are as low as they are right now.
Vienna is usually even more expensive than Paris to travel to since the cheapest tickets you can access from the U.S. throughout most of the year hover around the $600 mark.
This April, however, some flights are available for just $372, and May tickets aren’t too far behind with a $404 price tag – definitely the lowest you’ll see in 2024.
Milan
Italy’s fashion capital just so happens to be a cultural marvel that turns into the ultimate playground for sightseers and art lovers this time of year.
Best of all, you can get to and from the Italian gem for just under $175 this April.
In May, airfare is set to get even lower, with tickets starting at $169.
If you’re trying to spend as little on travel as possible for your next European getaway, you can stop reading right now – you’ve found your winner!
Porto
As one of the trendiest European hubs of the moment, Porto has seen traveler interest skyrocket this past year, and since a good chunk of this ever-increasing interest is coming from U.S. tourists, flight prices are getting higher by the day.
However, you can still finally get your dream Portuguese experience without breaking the bank.
This April, round-trip flights start at $410, which, while not exactly cheap, is still way better than paying almost $800 for the same exact tickets come July.
Bucharest
Finishing off the list with a slightly more underrated destination, Bucharest promises travelers a delightfully unique experience this spring, characterized by the fascinating juxtaposition between communist-era buildings and Belle Époque palaces.
Now, most flights from the U.S. to Bucharest surpass the 10-hour mark, so it’s great to see that there’ll be some $450 round-trip tickets available for travelers this April.
From then on out, prices will gradually increase (May is the second-cheapest month of the year to fly to Bucharest, with tickets starting at $469) until they reach the $700-$800 mark, so if there’s one time to rush through those reservations, that time is now.

Asia is surging in popularity with Americans due to its affordable prices, completely foreign yet fascinating culture, and relaxed visa policies that benefit U.S. passport holders, but it’s not always the easiest continent to fly to, especially if off-path gems are on your radar.
If you’re based in Seattle, we have great news for you: Taiwan-based luxury airline STARLUX is coming to the city, launching nonstop flights to their Taipei hub, as well as one-stop routes to 6 other incredible Asian destinations that might appeal to the adventurer in you.
We hope you haven’t made plans for spring 2024 already, as the start date is August 16. Here’s everything you need to know:
Everything You Need To Know About The New One-Stop Flights To Asia From Seattle
STARLUX Airlines has been making quite the splash since its global launch last year: a Taiwan-based luxury airline, it first entered the market primarily serving destinations in Asia before adding the United States to its flight map.
The first U.S. cities STARLUX launched in were Los Angeles and San Francisco, not coincidentally, as these Californian metropolises are not only America’s gateway to Asia, but they are home to a high number of Asian-Americans, and that typically pushes up demand.
Seattle is the third city to host STARLUX, with Taipei flights starting from August 17.
Through a partnership with Alaska Airlines, Seattleites and Americans residing in several other inland cities and as far away as New York on the East Coast will be brought closer to the Oriental World.
If you fly out of any of the airports listed below, you can now get to Asia with Alaska/STARLUX via Seattle:
Las Vegas (LAS)
Portland (PDX)
New York (JFK)
Chicago (ORD)
Phoenix (PHX)
Salt Lake City (SLC)
Denver (DEN)
Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW)
Houston (IAH)
STARLUX is the only Taiwanese airline offering first-class seats, and trust us, you don’t want to miss out on this:
Luxury Service Mid-Air
The A350-900s deployed on Trans-Pacific routes come with four first-class suites, with 60-inch doors that provide full privacy, 32-inch 4K flatscreens equipped with Bluetooth pairing, a spacious wardrobe, and our favorite, and zero-gravity seat settings that will make you feel as if you’re sleeping on a cloud.
The Business seats aren’t too shabby, either, arranged in a 1-2-1 configuration and seating 26 passengers. The 48-inch sliding doors close partially, and TVs are smaller (24-inch), but they still feature bluetooth audio and on-demand entertainment.
With inflight dining curated by chef Lam Ming Kin, known for adding a high-end twist to native Asian cuisine, including the exclusive Hutong Wagyu Bo Luo Bao (pineapple bun with black truffle butter), and other artisanal highlights, you’ll enjoy Michelin-starred dining mid-air.
Moving down to the 36-seat Premium Economy and 240-seat Economy Class, you should expect the classic 2-4-2 and 3-3-3 configurations, respectively. If you need more legroom and you can’t do without a comfy footrest, then you should definitely opt for the former.
Now, let’s have a look at the flight schedule:
Flight Schedule From Seattle To Taipei

From August 16, this is what STARLUX Airlines’ flight schedule from Seattle (SEA) to Taipei (TPE) will look like:
JX21 flight departs from Seattle at 2:10 a.m. landing in Taipei 5:10 a.m. on the next calendar date
JX22 flight departs from Taipei at 8:00 p.m. arriving in Seattle 4:15 p.m. on the same calendar date
Covering 6,075 miles, the Taipei-bound flight completes the journey in roughly 12 hours every Monday, Thursday, and Saturday. Return flights to Seattle block at 11h15 and operate on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
We’re not exactly thrilled about Seattle’s suboptimal 2:10 a.m. departure time, but there’s nothing a well-spent overnight in a STARLUX luxury first-class cabin won’t fix. You’ll wake up in Taipei at 5 a.m. feeling like new.
How Much Does It Cost To Book?
Prices for Seattle-Taipei flights start from only USD $897 return in Economy.
Traveling in the lowest tier, you can bring one piece of hold luggage weighing 23kg and under.
Premium Economy allows you to bring two pieces of luggage onboard, and you have a complimentary seat selection.

Business Class starts selling from $3,691, and finally, the moment you’ve been waiting for, a First Class seat averages a whopping $10,029.
We know this is a pretty long, strenuous journey, and breaking the bank before you even make it to Taipei will be no help, but don’t despair just yet:
Remember STARLUX has partnered with Alaska Airlines to improve connectivity between the inland U.S. and Asia?
If you have accumulated Alaska Mileage Plan miles and you’d very much rather travel in comfort, you can spend your mileage on a deluxe STARLUX experience.

Tthis partnership allows you to use your Alaska miles to book a First or Business Class seat on Trans-Pacific flights, reducing the eye-watering airfares.
In order to get a good deal on Business or First, or even fly for free, it’s recommended to have at least 75,000 miles accumulated.
Regardless of where they’re flying in Asia with STARLUX, Americans will have a short layover in Taipei, Taiwan, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing:
Nonstop Flights to One Of The Most Exciting Cities In Asia
Taipei is one of the most exciting cities in Asia, and the capital of Taiwan, an independent Chinese island that, contrary to the mainland, has adopted more democratic values, and has cozied up to Western values in recent decades.
Other than walking the vibrant, market-lined streets and admiring ancient temples, tourists can use Taipei as a starting point for exploring the island, full of natural landmarks and historic seaside villages with origins to lost to time.
From Taipei, passengers can connect to as many as 22 other destinations in Asia, including 10 in Japan. From the United States, mainly from Los Angeles, you can travel to the following Asian cities with a stopover in Taipei:
Phu Quoc, Vietnam
Hakodate, Japan
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Nagoya, Japan
Kumamoto, Japan
Clark, Philippines
Sendai, Japan
Cebu, Philippines
Hanoi, Vietnam
Sapporo, Japan
Okinawa, Japan
Fukuoaka, Japan
Singapore
Manila, Philippines
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Kuala Lampur, Malaysia
Tokyo, Japan
Osaka, Japan
Bangkok, Thailand
Da Nang, Vietnam
Penang, Malaysia
Macau, SAR China
Some of the destinations listed above, such as Tokyo and Singapore, host nonstop flights from the United States, usually via their own national carriers, so unless you’d like to couple those with a short visit to Taipei, it’s best you book directly with Japan or Singapore Airlines.
STARLUX is great, however, for reaching lesser-known destinations in Asia that are not typically served by mainstream Trans-Pacific airlines.
Straight from Seattle specifically, these are 6 other incredible destinations you can book full tickets with a stopover in Taipei, with departure times always set for 2:10 a.m:
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Chiang Mai is the cultural capital of Northern Thailand, a UNESCO-listed moated old city jam-packed with centuries-old temples, including the storied Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, with its towering golden stupa, and a foodie hotspot of the highest order.
One-way tickets from Seattle to Chiang Mai, with an 8h10 layover in Taipei, start from $541.30 on STARLUX’s website near launch dates. Following departure from Seattle, arrival in Thailand is set for 4:15 p.m. of the following day, local time, totaling over 24 hours of travel.
Cebu, Philippines
One of Southeast Asia’s last hidden gems, Cebu is a paradisaical Filipino island that combines vibrant city breaks (check out cosmopolitan Cebu City) and nature preserves (picture powder white sands licked by turquoise waters and untarnished jungles).
Flying from Seattle, you can find tickets for as cheap as $535.90 (return flights not included), with an even longer layover in Taipei, blocking at 10h50, which should give you plenty of time to do some exploring ahead of resuming your journey towards Cebu.
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
An eclectic metropolis, Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) combines French colonial, stemming from the period of imposed European rule, Western, commonly associated with America’s capitalist influence on South Vietnam, and post-communist architecture.
At the same time, it is unequivocally Vietnamese, with late-night markets bustling with merchants, crazy colors, and chaotic traffic to accompany them.
It is where several of Southeast Asia’s most iconic landmarks are concentrated, including Notre Dame of Saigon, a Neo-Gothic church built by the French, the ill-famed Cu Chi Tunnels, used by communist combatants during the Vietnam War, and the Flamboyant Opera House.
From Seattle to Ho Chi Minh City with STARLUX Airlines, your trip will include a brief layover in Taipei (2h40 mins), with the arrival time expected at 10:15 a.m. local time of the following day (total journey length of just over 18 hours).
One-way tickets average $526 flying Economy.
Da Nang, Vietnam
Moving up the Vietnamese coast, Da Nang is an up-and-coming resort destination with affordable oceanfront hotels that straddle turquoise waters, where overnight rates average a negligible $17, and mid-range eateries where you’re unlikely to be billed over $10 (even if you eat lavishly).
It’s a popular starting point for exploring Central Vietnamese nature, especially Ba Na Hills, where the viral giant hand-supported bridge is located.
Booking a one-way ticket to Da Nang through STARLUX, Economy tickets cost an acceptable $552.90 on launch dates this August, and the Taipei layover is one of the shortest at 1h45, for a total flight duration of 16h35.
Macau is a Special Administrative Region of China, meaning it is part of China, but it’s responsible for several of its own internal policies and not bound to follow Beijing’s social market economy: it’s a lot more open, with more Westernized values.
Similarly to Hong Kong, it’s a ‘mini China’ for beginners, except it’s distinct for its Portuguese heritage: the Luso-Europeans had held Macau as a colony for several centuries, so don’t be surprised to still find Iberian-style churches, ruined convents, or Portuguese azulejos lying around.
Fortunately for Americans, unlike mainland China, they don’t need a visa to enter Macau, making a trip there much easier to organize.
On select August dates, there are two flight routes departing from Seattle at 2:10 a.m. and then connecting onward towards Macau, one with a 3-hour stop and another with a longer 11h25 layover (durations 16h50 and one day, 1 hour, and 10 minutes, respectively).
As for tickets, they start selling for $587.90 on August 17.
Hakodate, Japan
Sitting at the foot of a 334-meter-high mountain, Hakodate is one of the main cities in Hokkaido, Japan’s northernmost island.
It’s famous for its steep streets winding around slopes, aerial gondolas, and the iconic Old Public Hall, a rare example of 20th-century Western architecture.
Coming from Seattle, your layover in Taipei is an estimated 6h50.
Your arrival in Hakodate is scheduled for 4:45 p.m., for a total journey length of 22h35. The second leg of the journey is Taipei to Hakodate. One-way Economy tickets start from $630.90.
It’s worth noting there are countless flight combinations and possible pan-Asian routes available now that STARLUX has landed in Seattle: these seven are only an example of that.
If you’re using STARLUX to reach one of the secondary destinations on its network, we advise you to check its official website for up-to-date pricing and information, as the schedule for connecting flights can change until then.

The final month of winter has arrived, so why not take advantage of cheap flights?!
Priceline revealed their latest data to help travelers choose how to finish the winter season strong with some awesome travel destinations.
Some places won’t stretch your dollar quite as far upon landing, but hey, at least you arrived by saving some serious dough.
Ranging from some of America’s most iconic cities to underrated winter getaways, travelers on a budget can score some great deals on airfare this month.
Seattle, Washington
Washington’s largest and most recognizable city is a steal of a deal for a last-minute winter trip. Not typically known as a winter destination given the grey skies and intermittent rainfall, Seattle can still be a good time with the right preparation.
Airfare has dropped for the off-season of this fun city, but packing a coat and umbrella may be necessary.
Travelers can still enjoy all the sights from the famous Pike’s Market, the iconic Space Needle, and more indoor attractions, such as the Seattle Aquarium and many museums.
Round-trip airfare is averaging $244.
Denver, Colorado
This hip city surrounded by majestic mountains is an awesome winter escape and even more so on the cheap!
Downtown is an endless playground of trendy bars, shopping, and nice hotels. Not to mention, the fun bike trails as an alternative way to explore Denver.
Travelers can squeeze in a last-minute ski trip with many resorts nearby or an outdoor adventure at Rocky Mountain National Park.
Denver has a huge airport outside the city, but the $10 train gives travelers an affordable straight shot over expensive Ubers.
Round-trip airfare is averaging $242
Washington D.C.
Despite cold weather, winter is one of the best times to visit our nation’s capital. During the sunny months of the year, crowds tend to pack into all the famous sites.
Visiting in winter gives tourists more elbow room. Plus, many of D.C.’s top attractions are indoors, so the weather won’t put too much of a damper on your trip.
Spend your days museum-hopping in some of the most fascinating places in America, such as The Smithsonian.
Far beyond just the White House, there are ritzy places to stay and trendy restaurants to indulge in.
Round-trip airfare is averaging $239.
Chicago, Illinois
Instantly one of the States’ most recognizable destinations, the vast concrete jungle of Chicago is super cheap right now.
But travelers be warned – the frigid weather is no joke! Those willing to sacrifice teeth-chattering chills in favor of savings in The Windy City can still have an awesome trip.
Walking the Magnificent Mile may be out of the question with the intense windchills, but there are still plenty of attractions and world-class hotels.
There may be no better time to go indoors and indulge in Chicago’s world-famous pizza restaurants, incredible museums or the real-life Dunder Mifflin for The Office fanatics.
Round-trip airfare is averaging $220.
New York, New York
Another cold yet iconic destination is none other than world-renowned New York City. Travelers pack in year after year braving the cold for Christmas and New Year’s celebrations and it’s no different for February.
Still cold, but you can actually walk through Times Square and take in one of the most recognizable locations on the planet.
The Big Apple is an endless metropolis of entertainment and cultural delights. From top notch museums, restaurants and shopping, travelers will lose track of time indulging in all NYC has to offer.
Round-trip flights are averaging $217.
The Best Of The Rest
Given it’s the off-season weather-wise in some of the top destinations in America, there are still some sunny destinations to visit, costing slightly more on average than the top 5.
Priceline revealed 10 total destinations for the best places to visit in February. This is the complete list:
