Air travel: Rebooking after Isaac

More than a thousand flights had been cancelled by Monday evening because of Tropical Storm Isaac, and the airlines were starting to rebook flights in and out of South Florida as the storm moved north toward landfall. Federal regulations require airlines to refund ticket prices to passengers whose flights were cancelled, but what happens when you don't want a refund, when you still want to get to that destination? There are almost as many responses as there are airlines. Scott Mayerowitz of the Associated Press has compiled information on what most of the major airlines are doing as far as rebooking flights and how far in the future they'll let you rebook without charging a change fee. Click here for the story.

The world's best hotel restaurants?

I remember when hotel restaurants were places to be avoided. As a category, they had no history of serving exceptional food. As TheDailyMeal points out, that began to change about 20 years ago. The first place I noticed the trend was in Las Vegas, where celebrity chefs were opening branches of their flagship restaurants, most of them in hotels. I had amazing food at Prime and Picasso in the Bellagio, Aureole at Mandalay Bay, Joel Robuchon at MGM. Now, you can find some of a city’s best restaurants in hotels. TheDailyMeal’s writers have made a list of their 101 favorite hotel restaurants. Check it out here.
