These are the most expensive airports in the U.S., per a new study
Aside from the actual vacation itself, a trip to the airport alone will cost you a pretty penny before your travels can even officially begin. But not all airports were created equally, or economically, for that matter: A new study by reveals the most and least affordable airports in North America, tallying the average cost for everything from a one-night hotel stay to overnight parking to that pre-plane pint of beer. The most expensive airport in the U.S.? It's unsurprisingly set in New York City: that would be LaGuardia Airport in Queens. Parking there is $37 a day, while a beer inside will cost an average of $12. If you stay overnight at one of the nearby hotels, the average nightly rate is $332. At that price, you'd want to stay at a fabulous new award-winning hotel instead of an hour-burner. The second most expensive travel hub is Denver International Airport, where parking is $32, a beer is seven bucks, and the close-by hotels run $312 per night. In third place is Boston's Logan International, with $27 parking, a $7 pint and $303 hotel rooms. Let's make ourselves feel better and look at the other end of the scale. The cheapest U.S. airport on the list is Houston's William P. Hobby airport—there, you can spend a more reasonable $14 for parking and $8 for a pre-boarding beer and drop just $101 on that hotel stay. The second least expensive is Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport ($16 parking, $6 beer, $120 hotel), while the third-place finisher is Phoenix Sky Harbor International ($30 parking, $7 beer, $109 hotel). Most expensive beer overall? That's LaGuardia's $12 pour. Least pricey? Portland International (Oregon, not Maine) at a little over $4. Most expensive parking overall? Nashville International at $42 a day. Least costly William P. Hobby's $14. Most expensive hotel overall? $332 at LaGuardia. Least wallet-testing? William P. Hobby's $101. As for the methodology behind the ranking, the beer cost was calculated using a 20-ounce Budweiser averaged across three different drink menus at each airport. Hotel prices were averaged from the three hotels that were determined to be closest to each airport. And parking prices were based on leaving your car in economy lots at the airport. All pricing was gathered for the same projected future date to be fair: July 26–27, 2025.

This New York airport was ranked the most expensive airport in the whole country
LaGuardia has come a long way from being dubbed the 'third-world airport' of New York. Thanks to a multi-billion-dollar makeover that wrapped earlier this year, the Queens-based travel hub now boasts state-of-the-art terminals, sleek lounges and even a Delta Sky Club that feels more five-star hotel than departure hall. But all that shiny newness comes at a steep cost—and not just to the Port Authority's budget. According to a new report by ranking the most and least affordable airports in North America, LaGuardia Airport is now officially the most expensive airport on the continent. Researchers tallied the average cost of a one-night hotel stay, overnight parking and a single pint of pre-flight beer, and LaGuardia topped the list with a whopping $381.41 tab. So, where's your money going? Nearby hotel rates average a staggering $332 per night, which is $167 more than the national airport average. Overnight parking will set you back another $37. And if you're hoping to calm your travel nerves with a drink, expect to pay $12.41 for a brewski, second only to Cancun International's record-setting $14.92. Rounding out the top three were Denver International Airport, with a total cost of $351.41 and Boston Logan at $335.91. Meanwhile, Tijuana International Airport in Mexico claimed the crown for affordability with an all-in cost of just $105.08, thanks to budget-friendly hotel and parking rates and beers under $8. With airfares already up 25-percent—the steepest increase since 1989—these hidden pre-flight expenses are catching more travelers off guard. And while LaGuardia's new amenities may dazzle, they're clearly not doing your wallet any favors.

Meghan Markle's podcast appearance hints she's ‘too busy' for Royal life, says body language expert
Meghan Markle made headlines after making her podcast debut on The Jamie Kern Lima Show. Now a body language expert has claimed the interview revealed how "incredibly busy" the Duchess is Meghan Markle's recent podcast appearance revealed how 'busy' she is, a body language expert has claimed. The Duchess of Sussex recently made her podcast debut during an appearance on The Jamie Kern Lima Show in which she gave listeners a glimpse inside her life as she discussed topics including parenting, marriage and her career. At one point in the interview, Meghan, 43, broke down in tears after opening up about writing nightly emails to Prince Archie, five, and three-year-old Princess Lilibet. Revealing she'd show them the emails when they turned 16 or 18, she explained: 'It's for them to be able to look back and go 'gosh she has loved us so much'. And that is I think the best part about being a mom.' Following the release of the interview, body language expert Judi James has dissected Meghan's appearance on the podcast. According to Judi, Meghan became 'overwhelmed' when speaking about her children as well as her relationship with Prince Harry. 'Meghan's references to her husband and children show her using body language that implies she is overwhelmed again but this time with love, not exhaustion,' she said. However, Judi added that 'one big theme' of the interview was how 'incredibly busy' Meghan is. Since stepping back as a senior royal in 2020, the Duchess of Sussex has embarked on a number of different projects including her As Ever brand and Netflix series With Love, Meghan. 'She uses the eye flutter and sighs to illustrate and emphasise this important message during a pose of 'happy agony' where she looks upward with a smiling grimace. Her other 'busy' rituals include a sigh and her fingers get spiked to suggest muscle tension under pressure,' Judi said, speaking to 'Meghan takes this further though, pinching the bridge of her nose to suggest exhaustion before the most dramatic gesture of all where she brings her whole hand up to cover her entire face in a masking ritual as she tells us 'Oh my gosh I work so hard' as her face contorts behind the hand.' The podcast interview comes amid speculation over whether Meghan, who has already written a children's book called The Bench, would one day write a memoir. Back in 2023 Prince Harry made headlines following the release of his book Spare, which became the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time. When asked if she'd release another book, the Duchess of Sussex said: 'Yes, maybe, for sure.' However, she quickly clarified: 'And then, you know, I think people are often curious if I'm going to write a memoir, but I've got a lot more life to live before I'm there.' In the same interview, Meghan gushed over husband Prince Harry and revealed how supportive he'd been following the release of As Ever. 'H, that man loves me so much and you know, look what we've built. We have built a beautiful life and we have two healthy beautiful children. I always think about it, when you get the end of Super Mario Bros, the final final level and what's the goal in Super Mario,' she said. 'It's to slay the dragons and save the princess. And that's my husband, he's just out there and constantly doing whatever he can to make sure our family is safe and protected and that we are uplifted - and still make time for date nights.'
