Flying etiquette tips: Simple rules for a stress-free air travel experience
Master flying etiquette: Key tips for smooth and respectful air travel.
Taurus travelers appreciate luxury and grounded experiences.
Recommended destinations for Taurus season (April 19-May 20) include Sedona, the Poconos, Paris, and Napa Valley.
These locations offer a mix of natural beauty, cultural attractions, and opportunities for relaxation.
The Taurus zodiac sign is known for its simultaneous love of luxury and its groundedness. Those are true of their travels as well, according to Psychic Saba, premier psychic advisor and astrology expert with California Psychics.
'Taurus would love to go on a spa trip, but they don't mind paying for that spa trip with a Groupon,' she told USA TODAY.
While those travelers – whose zodiac symbol is a bull – are likely to want beauty and relaxation from their vacations, they are also 'very down to earth,' according to Saba. She helped us round up some destinations for Taurus season, which runs from April 19 through May 20.
Aries need adventure, too: 4 astrologer-approved destinations for the ram
Sedona
Saba recommended Taurus travelers head for the Arizona city, well-known for its arts community and red rock scenery. 'This will allow the Taurus to take in the beautiful sights, but also get some of that earth element, spirituality, beautiful restaurants that will allow them to be relaxed and happy,' she said.
Visitors can browse art galleries, take Jeep and ATV tours and hike or bike more than 400 miles of trails.
There are round-trip domestic airfares during Taurus season to Flagstaff Pulliam Airport (FLG) – about 29 miles away – for $577 and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) – about 120 miles away – for $352, according to Hayley Berg, Lead Economist at Hopper. Hotels run for $379 per night on average during the same period.
The Poconos
Saba recommended the Pennsylvania region, where travelers can immerse themselves in nature, from hiking to visiting waterfalls and going whitewater rafting.
The area's four counties 'encompass a portion of the famed Appalachian Trail to the south, historic Route 6 connecting quaint towns to the north, the peaceful bends of the Delaware River as it winds between Pennsylvania and New Jersey through Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area to east, and the exhilarating white water rapids of the Lehigh River as it passes the Victorian splendor of the borough of Jim Thorpe to the west,' according to the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau.
Visitors will also find plenty to do indoors, from farm-to-table restaurants, spas, museums and more. Accommodations range from bed and breakfasts to cabins and resorts. 'I would definitely send Taurus to a place where they could indulge their senses without breaking the bank and support local businesses,' Saba said.
Berg found round-trip domestic airfares during Taurus season to Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport (AVP) for $433; Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE) for $398; Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) for $335; and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) for $298. Average nightly hotel rates were $144 in Stroudsburg; $140 in Jim Thorpe; $135 in Honesdale; and $96 in Tannersville.
Paris
For international trips, Saba suggested Paris with its striking landmarks, many museums and high-end hotels.
'If the Taurus is willing to travel that far, they're definitely not going to travel to see the neighborhood,' she said. 'They want to see the beauty. They want to do everything at the highest level.'
Travelers can find round-trip flights from the U.S. to Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) for $842 and Paris Orly Airport (ORY) for $813 during Taurus season, according to Berg. Hotels average $328 per night.
Napa Valley
Back stateside, Taurus is also likely to enjoy the lush greenery and vineyards of California's Napa Valley, according to Saba. 'If the Taurus is looking for beauty, look no further than the resorts with the wonderful spas and the great landscapes,' she said. '...It's just a beautiful energy.'
Popular restaurants and wineries may also be less crowded during the spring, according to Visit Napa Valley.
There are domestic round-trip flights to Oakland International Airport (OAK) – 51 miles away – for $354 and to San Francisco International Airport (SFO) – 58 miles away – for $306, Berg said. The nightly hotel rate averages $450 during Taurus season.

Apple Wallet soon to include passports, but it won't be valid for this type of travel
Apple announced that iOS users will be able to create a digital ID using their passport in Apple Wallet beginning this fall when the new iPhone operating system rolls out. An Apple spokesperson said during the event, "While not a replacement for your physical passport, digital ID can be used for domestic travel and at supported TSA checkpoints. " To be clear, that means even travelers who have a digital passport in their Apple Wallet will still need to present the physical document at customs and border checkpoints when traveling internationally. However, the Transportation Security Administration confirmed that a digital passport will be accepted by TSA officers at security screenings for domestic travel. When the REAL ID law took effect in May, many travelers had to double-check whether they had compliant driver's licenses or would need an alternative form of ID, like a passport, to board domestic flights. Apple said it is also refreshing digital boarding passes and improving the travel-centric features of its Wallet app. Zach Wichter is a travel reporter and writes the Cruising Altitude column for USA TODAY.

'It's scary': Travelers caught off guard as travel ban rules come into effect
'It's scary': Travelers caught off guard as travel ban rules come into effect Show Caption Hide Caption What we know now about President Trump's new travel ban taking effect How could President Trump's travel ban or restriction of nearly 20 countries impact you? Here is what we know now. New travel restrictions from the Trump administration took effect Monday, impacting nearly 20 countries. The restrictions add limitations on visas and entry, causing anxiety for travelers at U.S. airports. Many travelers were unaware of the policy shift. NEW YORK — A new round of travel restrictions from the Trump administration quietly took effect Monday, catching many travelers off guard and sparking fresh anxiety for immigrants and visitors at U.S. airports. At New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, passengers arriving at Terminal 4 and their loved ones waiting to greet them seemed unaware of the policy shift. About a dozen people in the terminal's arrivals area told USA TODAY they were unfamiliar with the updated travel ban, which adds new limitations on visas and entry from almost 20 countries, part of the administration's continued efforts to tighten U.S. borders. The updated restrictions primarily target nationals from a select list of countries, but critics say the move sends a chilling message to immigrants and foreign visitors more broadly. 'It's scary. It makes me worried. It affects my decisions to go home to visit my family,' said Randy Wicaksana, 33, who has lived in the U.S. for about three years. Wicaksana, an Indonesian national, said he is preparing to return home later this month to renew his visa but is increasingly uncertain about what might await him when he comes to the U.S. again. There were no visible signs or announcements in the terminal to alert travelers to the new rules. The administration said the changes are meant to "combat terrorism" and "strengthen our borders." For travelers like Wicaksana, however, the law feels increasingly unpredictable. Which nationals are barred from entering the US? The full travel ban applies to nationals of the following 12 countries: Afghanistan Burma (Myanmar) Chad Republic of the Congo Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Haiti Iran Libya Somalia Sudan Yemen Additionally, partial restrictions are imposed on nationals from: Burundi Cuba Laos Sierra Leone Togo Turkmenistan Venezuela What happens to travelers from these countries when they arrive at an airport? Travelers from the fully banned countries who attempt to enter the U.S. after the ban takes effect will likely be denied boarding by airlines or turned away upon arrival in the U.S. Those from partially restricted countries may face additional scrutiny, delays, or denial of entry, depending on their visa type and purpose of travel. What will happen to those with tickets already? Individuals from the affected countries who have already purchased tickets to travel to the U.S. should consult with their airlines and the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. While some exceptions exist, most travelers from the fully banned countries are expected to be denied entry. Those from partially restricted countries may still be allowed to travel, subject to additional screening and requirements. Travelers are advised to review the latest guidance from the U.S. Department of State and consult with immigration attorneys if they have concerns about their eligibility to enter the U.S. under the new proclamation.

On Sunday, June 7, emergency services conducted a search and rescue operation to recover those who were stranded near Hotham Heights after 'more than 50cm of snowfall in the area,' the Victoria State Emergency Service (SES) announced in a press release on Facebook on Sunday, June 8. All 19 people who were trapped in their vehicles at Mount Hotham have now been rescued, ABC News Australia reported. While 13 were rescued on Sunday, a further six were brought to safety on Monday, June 9. No one remains trapped in the area, The Guardian reported, citing SES and police. The Guardian and 9 News reported that 13 motorists and two hikers were rescued on Sunday after getting trapped in the snow near Mount Hotham the previous night. They got stuck at around 10:50 p.m. traveling along Blue Rag Range Track near Dargo High Plains Road.

Half a dozen of those trapped were forced to spend a second night in their vehicles, ABC News Australia reported, citing SES Regional Duty Officer James Boler. "The rescue operation has actually been pretty treacherous," Boler told the outlet. The conditions up on the mountain have been very, very difficult to deal with." There has been 62 cm of snowfall in the region over the past week, with temperatures falling to -4.3-degree Celsius (24.2-degrees Farenheit), ABC News Australia reported. The Country Fire Association, Wangaratta ski club, and Hotham alpine resort have assisted SES in their rescue efforts, according to The Guardian. 'We were very surprised at the number of vehicles that we did come across yesterday…' SES Unit Controller Graham Gales said, per the U.K. outlet. 'The experience of our drivers going into the Dargo High Plains Road yesterday was even they were having difficulty, and these are people that basically work in the snow all year round.' On June 6, the Alpine Shire Council posted a weather warning on Facebook, stating that travelers should 'avoid the Dargo High Plains Road over the King's Birthday long weekend' due to 'snow and high winds' in the [Victorian] alps. 'If you're heading out on the roads, please drive to the conditions, pay attention to signage and don't drive on roads with closure notices in place,' the post read. PEOPLE has reached out to Victoria State Emergency Services for comment, but did not immediately hear back. Read the original article on People
