Published

on

The limited-time Ready, Set, Summer Sale helps families, RVers, road trippers, and first-time campers stretch their summer travel budget at experience-rich campgrounds

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — As travelers rethink expensive flights and overcomplicated summer itineraries, Campspot is making one of the season’s most value-packed getaways even more compelling: campgrounds are going on sale.

With the Ready, Set, Summer Sale, travelers can find real savings on the kind of trips people are actively looking for right now: drive-to getaways, outdoor stays, family-friendly weekends, and easier ways to make the most of summer.

Campspot, a leading booking platform for RV parks, campgrounds, cabins, glamping stays, and outdoor accommodations, today announced the launch of its Ready, Set, Summer Sale, running June 15–21. For one week only, travelers can find limited-time deals at participating campgrounds across North America, including savings of up to 40% off select stays.

The sale arrives at a moment when travelers are looking for trips that feel easier, closer, and smarter without sacrificing the fun of a real summer vacation. According to Campspot data, summer campground rates average $101 per night, with many parks offering amenities that can turn a stay into the trip itself, from pools and waterparks to dog parks, on-site restaurants, family activities, events, and more.

According to Campspot’s 2026 Dust-Off Summer Trend Report, 79% of campers surveyed say they are actively reducing air travel this year, while 60% say they are avoiding all flights if possible. Higher travel costs are also shaping summer plans, with 68% citing them as the top disruptor influencing vacation decisions.

“Camping has always had this practical magic to it,” said Jeff Bettin, GM of Marketplace at Campspot. “It gives families, road trippers, RVers, and first-time campers a way to make summer feel memorable without making travel feel overwhelming. With the Ready, Set, Summer Sale, travelers can find real savings on the kind of trips people are actively looking for right now: drive-to getaways, outdoor stays, family-friendly weekends, and easier ways to make the most of summer.”

Campspot’s data shows just how strongly travelers are leaning into this more doable approach to travel. In its 2026 survey, 80% of campers said they have taken an RV or camping trip specifically because it felt like the “smartest vacation option” available. The report also found that 58% are more likely to take a drive-to getaway compared to last year, while 86% are actively interested in exploring more of the U.S. through road trips and nearby getaways in 2026.

Through the Ready, Set, Summer Sale, travelers can browse participating parks on Campspot and find deals on a variety of stay types, including RV sites, tent sites, cabins, vacation rentals, and glamping accommodations. Featured deals* include:

New release expands RealNex Navigator with KRM, RealNex Insights, RealNex Vault, RealNex Bridge, MarketEdge enhancements, and CRE Marketing Hub AI tools.

STAFFORD, Texas, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — RealNex, a commercial real estate technology company, today announced a major release of updates and enhancements to RealNex Navigator, its integrated platform for commercial real estate professionals.

Together, the enhancements make RealNex Navigator a more connected platform for managing knowledge, sharpening strategy, and activating execution across the full CRE deal cycle. The result is what RealNex calls The CRE Intelligence Advantage: a more effective way to make brokerage knowledge measurable, visible, and actionable.

“Commercial real estate has always been a knowledge business — and the broker who knows their market deepest wins. Every AI tool in the world cannot change that. What we have built changes something more fundamental: it makes that knowledge measurable, visible, and actionable at a scale no individual broker could achieve alone.”

— Mark Kingston, Executive Chairman, RealNex

KRM reflects the reality that CRE professionals manage more than contacts. They manage properties, markets, companies, owners, tenants, activity, assignments, and transaction history. RealNex Insights turns live KRM data into Power BI dashboards covering pipeline health, market inventory, financial performance, production activity, and business development performance.

RealNex Vault is a purpose-built virtual deal room for commercial real estate, with staged bidder progression, tiered access, NDA e-signature, dynamic watermarking, two-factor authentication, audit trails, and bidder engagement analytics. Vault is included at no additional charge for MarketEdge and Navigator subscribers.

97% of America’s Red-Eye Flights Take Off in the West, and Overnight Flying Is at a Record High, 26 Years of Federal Data Show

Published

Champion Traveler analysis of every US domestic flight since 2000 finds red-eyes concentrated in the Pacific and Mountain time zones, growing, and more reliable than daytime flights

SOUTH JORDAN, Utah, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — About one in sixty US domestic flights is a red-eye, and 97 percent of them take off in the western United States, according to a new Champion Traveler analysis of 26 years of Bureau of Transportation Statistics flight records.

The study counted every scheduled domestic flight reported to the federal government from 2000 through 2025 and classified as a red-eye any flight scheduled to depart between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m. and land between 3 a.m. and 10 a.m. local time. In 2025, 115,580 of 6.9 million flights met that definition.

Key findings:

Red-eyes are a western phenomenon. 97 percent of 2025’s overnight flights departed from the Pacific and Mountain states plus Alaska and Hawaii, a share that has never fallen below 95 percent since 2000.The red-eye is at a record high. Overnight flights grew 54 percent, from 75,158 in 2000 to 115,580 in 2025, after a low in 2009 and a collapse in 2020.Anchorage is the red-eye capital by share: 26 percent of its departures are overnight flights. Los Angeles leads by count with 19,064. Las Vegas flew the most red-eyes in America in 2000, lost more than half by 2010, and has since recovered.The middle-of-the-night departure is disappearing. Flights leaving after midnight were 31 percent of red-eyes in 2000 and 14 percent in 2025.The legacy airlines lost the overnight market. American, Delta and United flew 97 percent of red-eyes in 2000 and 64 percent in 2025. Alaska Airlines is now the most red-eye-heavy carrier, and Southwest, which flew none for 25 years, took 5.6 percent of the market in its first year.Red-eyes are more reliable. In 2025, 82.4 percent arrived within 15 minutes of schedule, against 77.6 percent of other flights, and they were cancelled less often.

The geography has a simple cause. An overnight flight from the West Coast crosses three time zones and lands on the East Coast at breakfast; the same trip westbound would land in the middle of the night, so airlines schedule almost no overnight flights in that direction. Among the 300 busiest red-eye routes in the study, 82 percent land in the Central or Eastern time zones.

The full study, with a sortable table of every US airport’s red-eye departures in 2000, 2010, 2019 and 2025, airline shares back to 2000, departure hours, seasonality and reliability, is at https://championtraveler.com/news/red-eye-flights-share-of-us-flights/. Journalists can request data for any airport, airline or route.

By

The fastest-growing property management software in the single-family rentals industry strengthens its leadership team as it enters its next phase of growth.

ESTERO, Fla., Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Rentvine, the fastest-growing property management software in the single-family rentals industry, today announced Nat Kunes as Chief Executive Officer, effective September 9. Kunes will lead company strategy and assume day-to-day leadership, building on the AI and open foundation Rentvine has already established with its recent launch of MCP and Pro Skills. Rentvine founder, Dave Borden will continue as a hands-on member of the leadership team and board of directors, closely involved in Rentvine’s vision, and industry relationships.

“We’re building the experience property managers deserve. The company’s focus on actively listening to property managers and executing based on their needs is rare, and it’s the foundation I get to build on as we push further into what AI can do for this industry.”

Nat Kunes brings a rare combination of experience: more than 20 years of product leadership, including at one of the largest property management software providers in the industry, paired with a track record of leading AI software organizations through their accelerated growth stages. That blend is precisely what Rentvine has been building in its next chapter, with that vision already taking shape inside the platform.

“What drew me to Rentvine was that our product, support, and culture already set the standard,” said Kunes. “We’re not running a predefined playbook. We’re building the experience property managers deserve. The company’s focus on actively listening to property managers and executing based on their needs is rare, and it’s the foundation I get to build on as we push further into what AI can do for this industry.”

“As founder, this company has always been my passion, and that’s not changing,” said Dave Borden. “Nat’s experience within property management will undoubtedly extend Rentvine’s industry leadership in AI. I will focus on the industry relationships, strategy, and culture, all near and dear to me, as we build our next chapter.”

“Adding Nat to our leadership team alongside Dave and me is exactly the kind of move that helps our customers win,” said Jonathan Ewen, Co-Founder and President of Rentvine. “He shares our commitment to the Herd, and having all three of us driving the business forward means we can move faster without losing what makes Rentvine, Rentvine.”

Rentvine’s product, team, and commitments to property managers remain unchanged. While Borden remains active in the business, Kunes will work alongside Borden and Ewen to make sure employees, customers, and partners continue to receive the same experience they’ve always received from Rentvine.
