The marine told investigators he found the round in the field about a year ago and kept it, thinking it wasn't live. Due to extensive rust and corrosion, the round's original identifying paint markings were no longer visible, making it difficult to determine whether it was an inert training munition or a live explosive device.

The aircraft landed safely at DTW where law enforcement and medical personnel met the flight and the customer deplaned.

Turkish Airlines has cancelled the majority of its Middle East flights until the end of March, as the conflict between the US and Iran continues to wreak havoc on international travel.

The flight, operated by Singapore Airlines, is one I'll never forget, and I'd do it again just to eat kaya toast once more.

Fraudsters are quick to exploit uncertainty and the travel disruption caused by the conflict in the Middle East is no exception. We're already seeing criminals target people seeking refunds for booked travel and holidays, sending them a link to supposedly receive a refund but instead people's accounts are being charged.

Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) has announced the cancellation of 1,000 flights in April alone and many other major European airlines have announced cancellations or route cutbacks.

Delta Air Lines has issued a travel advisory stating that travel from its main hub, Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International, 'may be affected' by longer security wait times, advising passengers to allow at least 4 hours for screenings.

I had my camera stolen while going through security. It was a painful loss, mainly because of the memories captured on it. When she brought it up to the security officers, they told her there was no video coverage of that area.

When traveling by air, take a look at the type of aircraft you're expected to fly with, as it can make a difference in terms of overall flight experience. This can also help you get to know the different cabin classes so you can make the right seat selection for your comfort level and your wallet.

Gate changes, especially those sprung on travellers at the last minute, are a real pain point in air travel. The primary drivers are usually a last-minute aircraft swap due to a mechanical issue or an unexpected delay on an inbound flight occupying the planned gate.

Passengers can be removed from a flight for disruptive, violent, or aggressive behavior, making threats, or interfering with a crew member's ability to perform their duties. Once a passenger refuses instructions, escalates a confrontation, or distracts the crew during boarding or taxi, airlines have little flexibility because it becomes a safety issue. That stance is backed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which maintains a zero-tolerance policy for unruly or dangerous behavior, meaning passengers who interfere with crew duties can face removal, fines, or further action.

Rushing to get on board with your carry-on may seem like a good idea (there's only so much overhead bin space, after all), but attempting to take shortcuts during the boarding process can actually delay your travels even more. "We understand that boarding can make people anxious, but I promise: If you have a seat assignment, you will get on the plane,"

I spend a lot of time in airports. Like, a lot of time. Last year alone, I took more than 100 flights and logged over 200,000 miles in the air, which means I've seen just about every airport mistake imaginable-usually unfolding in real time at security, the boarding gate, or mid-aisle as someone realizes their phone is at 3 percent.
