Happy New Year! What better way to ring in 2022 than an adventure? Hence, a journey around the world to check in with our partner airlines.

Emirates operates the A380 double decker from Los Angeles to Dubai. With 8,339 miles, this route is the longest flight for Emirates as well as for the A380 aircraft.

Situated in a 1-2-1 configuration with automatic sliding doors, there's a privacy partition between the center two seats that can be lowered for travelers flying together.

To the side of every seat there's a minibar and along the front of the suite there's a table lamp, a snack basket, and a back-lit, mirrored vanity filled with toiletries. A small tablet controls the seat position, light dimmers, a Do Not Disturb light, entertainment, and views of the 3 cameras outside of the aircraft.

Upon arrival, Emirates serves their signature Arabic coffee, dates, along with a warm towel, pajamas, slippers, a tote bag, and a BVLGARI leather kit filled with BVLGARI amenities. The A380 first class cabin is outfitted with spacious restrooms and Voya toiletries, heated floors and showers on board. It's a surreal experience and a 'destination' on its own.

"Last year was the worst ever time for aviation. And it was no different for us,” says Ajay Singh, CEO of Indian carrier SpiceJet. When India locked down in March of 2020, SpiceJet, like many commercial carriers, shifted to cargo by transporting medicines and equipment to and from different parts of the world. The need for good logistics is essential to the modern world, as the blockage of the Suez Canal emphasized. What aviation brings to the world, the level of quality and service that airlines provide, is now valued more because of the disruption caused by Covid-19.⠀
⠀
Airlines examined their customer journey to design a more customer-friendly and relevant process. At the same time, while we would rather achieve this without Covid-19, keeping up with the current environment has accelerated Aviation progress. We're efficiently advancing contactless technologies, including digital boarding passes and baggage tags, biometrics and biosafety programs. We're manufacturing better aircrafts from a sustainability point of view. These changes not only strengthen safety, they speed up and simplify processes for travelers. They are likely to be retained and further developed.⠀
⠀
Travelers value space, especially on long-haul flights, and they're upgrading from economy to premium economy and from there to business class. Customers increasingly prefer point to point direct travel with minimal connecting points. The fundamentals of interconnectivity and partner alliances was demonstrated to properly serve customers in the modern, connected world.⠀

Morocco. The fascinating and incredibly diverse country of western North Africa lies directly across the Strait of Gibraltar from Spain. Although the country is rapidly modernizing and enjoys a rising standard of living, it retains much of its ancient architecture and traditional customs. It is the only African country with coastal exposure to both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Morocco features gorgeous coastlines, the famous Sahara Desert, spice-laden souks, and the jagged, usually snow-capped Atlas Mountains.⠀
⠀
Behind every city wall is an adventure in art, architecture and cuisine. The winding alleyways of the Medina give way to the bustling souks, filled with brightly colored silks and baskets of spices. At the hammam in Marrakesh, you can indulge in massages perfumed with scented oils and salt scrubs. Ride a camel on the golden sand dunes while the sun shimmers dramatically on the horizon and camp beneath the Saharan stars. The red arch on Legzira Beach in Sidi Ifni is one of the most photographed spots in the country. From windsurfing in Essaouira to cliff jumping in the Paradise Valley Agadir this expansive country is a spectacular mix sitting at the crossroads between Europe and the Middle East.

As travelers flock to Croatia, there's a hidden ge

As travelers flock to Croatia, there's a hidden gem one hour up the coast of Dubrovnik, in the scenic and rugged Pelješac Peninsula🚣 It's filled with family-owned vineyards, charming old villages, and rocky beaches. Hidden within the town of Drače, is the country’s first underwater winery. Edivo Vina ages its wines in the Adriatic Sea, where visitors can join divers on a tour to retrieve their own bottle. The sea provides favorable conditions for aging the wine, with steady temperatures and natural sea cooling. It gives the wine its unique taste, often described as having a "pinewood aroma". In addition to the novelty of tasting sea-aged wine, the amphorae are typically retrieved covered in corals, shells, and sea fauna that make for a spectacular souvenir from this one-of-a-kind winery.⠀
⠀
The unique experience showcases Navis Mysterium, which is kept in a sunken historic shipwreck, found at the bottom of Croatia’s Mali Ston Bay. Guests to the #EdivoVina winery can dive to see, firsthand, the underwater wine cellars stored on the boat. Nearly 5,000 bottles of wine are aged above-ground for three months and then stored in amphorae, a clay jug, below the water.⠀
⠀
During the winter (November 1 to April 1) tours are once a day and during summertime twice. Groups are small, and the number of people depends on the level of diving experience. ⠀

Located in South Africa’s Kruger National Park,

Located in South Africa’s Kruger National Park, the Kruger Shalati Train on a Bridge is a unique luxury accommodation experience being built in a historic steam train. The hotel is stationed on the iconic and original unused Selati Railway bridge, situated near the Skukuza Camp. Suspended over one of the most biodiverse rivers in South Africa, the glass-walled, large train rooms allow for infinite views along the length of the majestic Sabie River and the grasslands beyond. The lounge car and the mid-bridge blockhouse will support a bespoke deck with an innovative pool that juts out over the river, with crocodiles, hippos, buffaloes and elephants greeting guests in the riverbank below 🐘⠀
⠀
The area was designated as a national park in 1928, when the train traveled along the Selati Railway line. The railway ran regularly through the 1960’s and shut down in 1973. Immersing guests in the comfort of an Afro-chic boutique hotel experience, the train itself will offer 24 en-suite rooms able to sleep 48 guests, with another 7 rooms in the adjacent Kruger Shalati Bridge House, accommodating 14 beds on the land next to the bridge.⠀
