U.S. Issues Official Travel 'Warning' for Canada
The U.S. Department of State has already issued a plethora of travel advisories over the past month. The latest country to receive a warning is none other than Canada.
A travel advisory shares the risks and recommended precautions for U.S. citizens in a foreign destination. The U.S. Department of State has "no higher priority" than keeping Americans safe and secure overseas. With that said, Poland, Qatar and Thailand were the first three countries to receive a travel warning in June.
"The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) and/or a Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) for the region, including Qatar," the U.S. government's advisory for Qatar states. "This is due to risks to civil aviation from political and military tensions in the region. The notice advises U.S. operators to review current threat information and to report safety or security incidents. For more information, U.S. citizens should consult the Federal Aviation Administration."
On June 11, the U.S. Department of State issued a Level 1 travel advisory for Canada. It's still considered a "safe destination," which means travelers should exercise normal precautions.
U.S. citizens traveling to Canada this summer are advised to do the following:
Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive messages and Alerts from the U.S. Embassy and make it easier to locate you in an emergency.
Review the Country Security Report for Canada.
Prepare a plan for emergency situations.

As of this Wednesday, the U.S. Department of State has not issued a Level 4 advisory since May 14. American citizens are being told to avoid Somalia art all costs due to crime, terrorism, civil unrest and other concerns.

Plane Rolls off Runway After Landing in Boston
There have been a number of aviation-related accidents to talk about this year, and another has affected a major airport on the East coast. A flight arriving to Boston's Logan Airport late on Thursday morning rolled off the runway after landing and into the grass. Responders and authorities at the airport rushed to the scene, but eventually confirmed that there were no injuries as a result of the accident. The Airbus A220 was arriving after its flight path originated out of Chicago's O'Hare airport. The FAA issued a ground stop at Logan Airport roughly two hours after the initial accident took place. Passengers deplaned on the tarmac using stars instead of having the plane pull into a traditional gate. Currently, departures from Logan Airport are being delayed by around 30 minutes as crews continue to work and investigate the cause and how this event took place. Airline and airport travel have been hot-button issues for the last few months, unfortunately highlighted by a pair of deadly, fatal crashes in Washington D.C. and Philadelphia. Other smaller planes have been involved in crashes around the country, claiming lives. Some travelers are skipping the skies altogether and taking their chances on the ground, even if it's less convenient to drive to a destination instead of worrying about flying. 'Safety is JetBlue's top priority,' the airline said in a statement after the plane was removed on Thursday. 'We will conduct a full investigation of the incident and will work closely with the relevant authorities to understand the cause.' "All crew and customers are safe,' said Tyesha Best, president of Transport Workers Union of America Local 579. The union represents JetBlu flight attendants and is confirming that no one was injured. As the airline industry continues to experience mishaps, one of American's most prolific and prominent airports has now fallen victim. Thankfully, skilled pilots were able to land the plane safely, and the passengers aboard had their ingenuity and quick thinking to rely on when it came to making sure all parties involved are represented. We'll see what happens moving forward as air travel issues continue to persist in America. Plane Rolls off Runway After Landing in Boston first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 12, 2025

State Department issues ‘do not travel' advisory for Iraq
(NewsNation) — The State Department issued a 'do not travel' warning for Iraq on Thursday, telling Americans not to travel to the country due to threats of violence. The U.S. pulled some troops and nonessential embassy personnel out of Iraq on Wednesday, citing tension in the region. There are signs Israel is preparing to launch an attack on Iran, which could result in retaliatory attacks on U.S. installations in the region. Trump launches web site for 'gold card' The advisory warned of potential terrorist attacks, kidnappings, armed conflict, civil unrest and aerial bombardment in Iraq. Americans were also warned not to travel through Iraq to engage in armed conflict in Syria. U.S. government officials have also been prohibited from using the airport in Baghdad. The State Department warned that citizens who choose to travel to Iraq cannot rely on government assistance. Suggestions for those who decide to go to the country anyway include having a personal security plan, establishing a last will and testament and providing DNA samples to a medical provider in case it is needed for identification.

Baja fresh: This Cabo San Lucas hotel is a celebrity oasis
As a professional NFL player, now spiraling pigskin as a backup QB for the Miami Dolphins, Zach Wilson knows his way around a ball. But his fiancée, Nicolette Dellanno, threw an even bigger ball recently. This past March, the soon-to-be-bride chose Mexico's lively southern West Coast — Cabo San Lucas — to party down with gal pals, bachelorette style! The town is wee, wee, wee all the way down the Sur half of the hallowed Baja California peninsula, conjoined via walkable corridor with its hermano, San José del Cabo, and straddled by the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of California (un-wokely, the latter is known as the Sea of Cortés). 4 Nicolette Dellanno enjoyed her bachelorette bash in Cabo ahead of her wedding to QB Zach Wilson. Nicolette Dellanno/Instagram Dellanno, who announced her engagement to the former Jet, 25, last summer, flaunted a white one-piece with as she sunbathed at SUR Beach House in CSL, according to an earlier Post report. (Cabo was also TripAdvisor's No. 5 international destination to visit for Americans in 2025). Swimwear and sand aside, the whys of visiting the Cabos hermanos remain endless: that famed granitic arch standing amid the surfable sea, the breaching whales, the ubiquitous live music. But the 'where to lay your head' thing? That's a more interesting question. This sneaker-friendly municipality blends together locals and travelers, taquerias and speakeasies, craft coffee and top-shelf cuisine. It's also a little sketch, in a good way. Certain properties here can just sleaze away in the breeze, old-school cabeño-style. But a select few are posh, scene-y and classy. One most of all is almost demurely hiding behind its own open-kitchen, wood-fired, pizza-serving restaurant Esquina. 4 Bahia is an urban oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Cabo. Courtesy of Bahia Hotel & Beach House Blanco as blanco can be, and always fire pit- and light-strand-illuminated at night, we called Bahia Hotel & Beach House home (from $133 a night). But just how, legally, does this boutique bed broker get away with that whole 'and Beach House' nomenclature when it's literally squatting on a very urban, passers-by-in-the-gazillions corner slice of downtown Cabo San Lucas? Because the genius partners (after the crash of 2008, no less) Felipe Rebelo and Lee Vosburgh revamped the '80s-built joint and tethered it exclusively to that forementioned SUR Beach Club literally right down the road, offering Bahia's guests priority seating (read: guaranteed staked shade umbrellas, booze-balancing waiters and as-clean-as-they're-able-to-be chaise lounges) all on a private, roped-off piece of Medano Beach (the only swimmable one in the area) with a very unique side-boob view of its famed aquatic arch. 4 Bahia has plenty of in-house nosh plus a roped-off private area at its SUR Beach House to enjoy it. NY Post photo composite 4 Golden arches, kinda/sorta seeable from SUR, mean something quite different in Cabo. Shutterstock Just hop their 20-second golf cart taxi and suddenly that sweltering Mexican asphalt beneath your feet transforms into sugary sand like magic. With only 89 (many Jaccuzied) rooms arranged over a modest six floors, Bahia likes familiar faces. Loyal guests will often bump fists or whatever the kids are doing and chitchat with the staffers and owners alike. If you do venture off-site with all of those dizzying distractions and never try one of Tacos Gardenia's fried shelled fare, self-flagellate 39 times like a Benedict monk and come back next summer to repent. They're a must (and only a block from the hotel). Just don't be worried about those bloodthirsty Mexican C-words around these parts — locals here jokingly refer to cartels as 'country clubs.' The one heavily fortified, maximum prison-looking structure on that long, lonely stretch of cacti-rife land between Los Cabos International Airport and CSL you'll notice is a military outpost whose camo-clad, albeit fairly low-key occupants you just might see around town specifically keep them varmints at bay. (And PS those prickly water-bloated succulents that happen to populate that vast desert keep fires away, too, just in case you're taking notes, America-side California.) College kids, the other C-word, however? They haven't invented a weapon strong enough to stave them off yet. One day.
