World Travel
Starting February 20 and going until June 13, Rome’s Scuderie del Quirinale will be hosting one mammoth Caravaggio exhibit that’s worth checking out for any art enthusiast.
This exhibit will combine Caravaggio works from private collections across the world as well as on-loan museum pieces. You can get tickets in advance, which we’d recommend, and also try to avoid the weekend crowd, you want to really enjoy this one.
We found this hilarious post from BudgetTravel, indicating where former Tonight Show host Conan O’Brien should go to recharge his batteries after the whole NBC debacle.
Budget is suggesting Canada, obviously, Finland, Mexico, Australia and the Netherlands. Now if we can just get the 6′4″ O’Brien to commit, we’ll tag along. We would also suggest Ireland and Scotland, but that may seem too obvious, eh?
From February 1 through the 28th, you can take your sweetheart to New York City and treat them to romance like they’ve never known.
From $175 per night, you’ll be enjoying accommodations from your pick of five Apple Core Hotels’ properties. With a dessert at Max Brenner or Serendipity, rose petals on the bed and a bottle of champagne, you might have to work hard to leave your room!

We wrote last week about Delta and Continental raising their check baggage fees and it looks like American Airlines is following in their footsteps.
Beginning February 1, your first checked bag with AA will be $25 and there is sadly no discount if you pay in advance such as other airlines offer. Southwest airlines is still hanging on as being the only airline to not charge for checked baggage. We love you Southwest.
While Southwest is still not asking customers to pay for checked luggage, Continental and Delta airlines are both raising their luggage fees, once again.
Delta has now risen their checked baggage fees from $15 for the first bag to $25, and from $20 for the second checked bag to $35. After their announcement, Continental was quick to raises their own luggage rates as well. While both airlines will charge you a bit less for checked luggage if you pay ahead of time, this trend seems to be getting out of control.
What’s next for checked baggage fees? Will Southwest have to finally cave on this issue?
