Back when I was in college in Boston, I always loved when the city's gray days began to melt away with the arrival of spring. So I was thrilled to see our latest Free City Guide focuses on Boston, as I definitely think it's one of the best places in the U.S. to explore on the cheap (as a college student, I didn't have choice). You can people watch on Newbury Street, take in a concert at the Half Shell, or stroll the iconic Freedom Trail or the market stalls in Faneuil Hall.

Cruises are the ultimate exercise in worry-free travel… that is, until you stop at a port of call and find yourself in need of plans for an entire day in a city you have no idea what to do in. What are the options? You could buy a separate guide book for every port of call: an expensive and heavy solution.

In January 2009, US Air kicked off the summer selling season with tax-included fares for peak summer travel to Europe in the $500's and $600's but that was nothing compared to the $200 and $300 fares that appeared later in the spring and summer.
