Aruba is a strip of simple paradise surrounded by beautiful oceans. The island is peaceful and safe; a Jeep is all you need to make your own private beach. And, low-cost carriers like Southwest Airlines fly there. Combine that with IHG, Hilton, Hyatt and Marriott properties where you can use points, and this island can provide a very affordable Caribbean vacation.

In travel news, we're talking changes to the CDC quarantine guidelines and an incredible award sale for flight to Europe if you hold any of the Chase Ultimate Rewards or American Express Membership Rewards credit cards.
