The fraternity of consumer-focused columnists is fond of writing about "Travelers' Rights." But we really don't. We write about airline passenger rights. Here in the U.S., they're extensive. They're even broader in Europe. They're backed by government, and they call for recourse if the airlines fail to provide. Like my brethren, I'll continue to cover developments.

For Chiara Aurelia (“Luckiest Girl Alive,” “Cruel Summer”), getting to travel is a major perk of her job. “I was recently filming a project that had to take an unexpected hiatus, which provided me with the perfect opportunity to take the European summer adventure I've always dreamed of,” said the New York-based actress. “Within a couple of days of the show pausing, I had purchased a one-way ticket to London and ended up spending two months in Europe. It was a great opportunity to visit family and friends. I also got to spend a lot of time traveling alone. That summer became one of the most informative and significant periods of growth in my life.”
