]]> While Mediterranean nations such as France and Spain may be famous for their wines and vineyards, some travelers might not realize that South America has a rich array of wineries of its own. Here are some of the best wine destinations to visit across South America that would impress even the most experienced wine connoisseurs.

Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina

Home to Argentina’s capital city of Buenos Aires, this province offers tourists the opportunity to enjoy sea, sand, and surfing on its coastline along the Atlantic Ocean. Among this province’s wine lovers’ gems is the coastal resort town of Mar del Plata, home to the Costa & Pampa winery which offers varieties including Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc. There is also Bodega AlEste, a boutique winery with several beloved vintages.

Ica Valley, Peru

In this exotic region of Peru, you can find the Paracas National Reserve, a perfect spot for a vacation in nature. When you aren’t breathing in fresh air in the wilderness, you can visit the Pisco 1615 – Bodega San Nicolas, where you can sip on some of the finest barrel-aged piscos while enjoying scrumptious cuisine at world-class restaurants including Central and Maido.

Maldonado, Uruguay

The east coast of Uruguay is a perfect place to enjoy some waves yet also sip on tasty wine. The coastal town of Punta del Este is an ideal place to vacation, where you’ll enjoy the waters of the Atlantic Ocean while wining and dining the night away. French restaurant La Bourgogne and seafood establishment Lo de Tere are two restaurants where you’ll be able to sip on world-class wines including Pinot Noir.

]]> Are you looking to treat your significant other to a well-deserved, romantic getaway? Well, even if you have a tight budget, there are plenty of worthwhile options for you. Here are some ideal destinations for an affordable yet truly unforgettable couples’ vacation.

Yosemite National Park

One of the most beautiful natural wonders of California and the United States as a whole, Yosemite National Park is home to wondrous waterfalls, granite cliffs, and breathtaking mountain ranges. In addition to its beautiful hiking trails, there is plenty of cozy lodging, including cabins and camping sites.

Gulf Shores

Home to part of the Gulf of Mexico, Alabama offers a vacation paradise known as the Gulf Shores. Here, you can taste some great food, enjoy the bustling nightlife, and even enjoy an array of fun activities such as go-karting and riding the Ferris wheel. And all that is when you’re not immersing yourself in the pleasant waters and relaxing on the golden beach.

San Juan

Although it may not form part of the US mainland, Puerto Rico is a US territory that is easy and affordable to visit. At the heart of this Caribbean island is the capital city of San Juan, a colorful city filled with boutique hotels, scrumptious food, and of course, its pristine beaches.

]]> Just because airlines don’t have a specific dress code doesn’t mean that all clothing is appropriate for flying. After all, long plane rides are grueling and arduous. Here are some clothing that you should avoid wearing at all costs on your next flight.

Open-toed Shoes

As you embark on your summer vacation, you may feel tempted to slip into some sandals or flip-flops, especially as the weather heats up. What you may not have thought about, however, is that the plane you’re set to board may not have received a deep clean in quite some time. Wear closed-toe shoes for your flight so that you avoid unnecessary grime.

Bulky Jewelry

When you show up to airport security, you’ll be required to take certain jackets and jewelry off before you go through. Rather than giving yourself extra unnecessary work, simply place your jewelry in your carry-on luggage. After all, there’s no point in dressing to the nines for a flight.

Fragrances

Because planes are closed spaces with limited air circulation, it’s best to avoid wearing fragrances on your flight. For this reason, it’s best to avoid wearing perfumes, colognes, and any other fragrances before taking flight. After all, not only can such scents become very pungent and overpowering in a closed space, but they are also problematic for fellow passengers who may have allergies.

]]> While airports primarily function as transportation hubs, many of them have been equipped with restaurants and entertainment features to address the boredom experienced by many travelers stuck on a prolonged layover. More recently, there is a handful of US airports that have started offering restaurants and stores that truly give travelers an insight into the local culture without even stepping outside the airport.

LaGuardia Airport

Closely located to the iconic New York City, LaGuardia Airport has done a great job of emulating the charm of the Big Apple at its brand new Terminal C. Here, you can enjoy a classic brunch at the much beloved Bubby’s, which replicates the highly popular original location in the bustling Tribeca neighborhood.

Portland International Airport

If you’re traveling along the West Coast, Portland International Airport is sure to provide you with a first-hand experience of some of the best stores and restaurants that Oregon has to offer. Loyal Legion Brewery offers 96 beers on tap, each of which was brewed right there in the State of Oregon. Even the airport’s decor is authentic, with the timber used in the lattice ceiling sourced in collaboration with four Indigenous tribes of Oregon.

Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport

This beautiful airport in Georgia captures all the charm that The Peach State has to offer. What’s particularly attractive about the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport is its unmissable mock “town square”, with its glass ceiling and rocking chairs, transporting you to a screened-in Georgian porch.

]]> If you’re interested in enjoying an African getaway, then head on to Cape Town, South Africa, a dreamy coastal city filled with thrills and spills. Still, with so much to do, it can be difficult to decide on your itinerary. Here is how to make the most of your Cape Town trip.

The Right Time To Go

Although Cape Town is beautiful throughout the year, going during the South African summer is best. Because the seasons are opposite to Northern Hemisphere countries, this South African gem will allow you to enjoy the warm sun and beach while avoiding the chilly weather back home.

Select Your Transport

Luckily, Cape Town has numerous modes of transport to help you get around. MyCiTi buses will be able to fetch you from the airport and take you to a variety of tourist hotspots throughout the city. Otherwise, you can enjoy a sightseeing tour with any of the Hop-On-Hop-Off tour busses or order an Uber if you don’t want to rely on public transportation.

Finding The Right Accommodation

No trip to Cape Town is complete without staying at one of the city’s luxury hotels. Bliss Boutique Hotel is an intimate hotel that’s perfect for a couple’s getaway, while The President Hotel Cape Town is the place to go if you’re searching for a spacious hotel situated close to all of the bars, restaurants, and tourist attractions.

]]> With peak travel season behind us, many tourists don’t realize that there are plenty of perks of traveling during shoulder season, specifically fewer crowds and peace and quiet. Here are some perfect holiday destinations across the United States for a relaxing fall vacation.

Newport, Rhode Island

Tucked away in the eloquent Northeast, Newport is a charming town filled with tasty waterfront restaurants, apple orchards, and a stunning coastline, boasting a grand lighthouse and tranquil waters. Fall is the perfect time to enjoy the Cliff Walk, particularly with fewer crowds to contend with.

Cape May, New Jersey

Despite being known as a buzzing Jersey Shore town for a fun-filled summer vacation, Cape May is equally enjoyable during the fall. With its stunning landscape painting in red, yellow, and orange leaves and its elegant Victorian buildings, Cape May also has plenty to do during the fall. Not to be missed is its Exit Zero Jazz Festival, which is sure to keep you entertained.

Scottsdale, Arizona

If escaping the chill is your priority, then head down to Scottsdale, Arizona, which offers sunny skies throughout the fall. When you’re not enjoying some sun at the pool, you can enjoy an adventurous hike through the Sonoran Desert and enjoy a round at the world-class golf courses. When you’re not exploring, enjoy some of the fine dining available in downtown Scottsdale.

]]> If you happen to have a long layover, then heading to an airport lounge can make your wait far more enjoyable. For JetBlue customers, the opportunity to dine and relax at an exclusive lounge has become available thanks to the introduction of two brand new airport lounges by the US airline.

Over the past few years, JetBlue has put a heap of effort into improving its premium offers, acknowledging that many travelers have a lust for traveling in style. While the airline launched its Mint business-class service, it didn’t stop there.

Recently, JetBlue officially announced plans to open new airport lounges at the John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York and the Logan International Airport in Boston. The JFK lounge is expected to open in 2025, with the Boston lounge following soon after.

“Lounges have become an essential offering for the growing number of customers seeking premium experiences, and JetBlue’s lounges will further boost the value of our TrueBlue loyalty program as we expand our portfolio of JetBlue credit cards,” JetBlue President Marty St. George explained. Both lounges are set to be equipped with all the amenities you could possibly desire, including a full bar, buffets, comfortable chairs and sofas, and even private workspaces.

]]> With Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up fast, you’re probably thinking of ways to create precious memories with your loved ones. There’s perhaps no better way to do this than by booking an unforgettable vacation. Here are the best times for you to book your Christmas and Thanksgiving vacations for the best deals.

Luckily, Google provided some insights on the best times to book flights. For both holidays, but especially for Christmas, the back end of the month appears to have the best deals on flights.

“If you already know where you’re going to fly, our best advice is to enter your trip details on Google Flights and look for the insights that show you the cheapest time to book your chosen destination and dates,” advised James Byers, group product manager of search for Google. It appears that, generally, domestic flight prices for Thanksgiving slump to their lowest levels around 45 days before departure, while those around Christmas time are at their lowest around 48 days before takeoff.

What’s particularly great about using Google Flights is the intuitive tools it offers to help you get the best deals. Now, Google can inform you when prices on your selected trip have been at their lowest so that you can ensure that you book your tickets at the most opportune time.

Cape May, New Jersey

Despite being known as a buzzing Jersey Shore town for a fun-filled summer vacation, Cape May is equally enjoyable during the fall. With its stunning landscape painting in red, yellow, and orange leaves and its elegant Victorian buildings, Cape May also has plenty to do during the fall. Not to be missed is its Exit Zero Jazz Festival, which is sure to keep you entertained.

Scottsdale, Arizona

If escaping the chill is your priority, then head down to Scottsdale, Arizona, which offers sunny skies throughout the fall. When you’re not enjoying some sun at the pool, you can enjoy an adventurous hike through the Sonoran Desert and enjoy a round at the world-class golf courses. When you’re not exploring, enjoy some of the fine dining available in downtown Scottsdale.

]]> If you happen to have a long layover, then heading to an airport lounge can make your wait far more enjoyable. For JetBlue customers, the opportunity to dine and relax at an exclusive lounge has become available thanks to the introduction of two brand new airport lounges by the US airline.

Over the past few years, JetBlue has put a heap of effort into improving its premium offers, acknowledging that many travelers have a lust for traveling in style. While the airline launched its Mint business-class service, it didn’t stop there.

Recently, JetBlue officially announced plans to open new airport lounges at the John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York and the Logan International Airport in Boston. The JFK lounge is expected to open in 2025, with the Boston lounge following soon after.

“Lounges have become an essential offering for the growing number of customers seeking premium experiences, and JetBlue’s lounges will further boost the value of our TrueBlue loyalty program as we expand our portfolio of JetBlue credit cards,” JetBlue President Marty St. George explained. Both lounges are set to be equipped with all the amenities you could possibly desire, including a full bar, buffets, comfortable chairs and sofas, and even private workspaces.

]]> With Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up fast, you’re probably thinking of ways to create precious memories with your loved ones. There’s perhaps no better way to do this than by booking an unforgettable vacation. Here are the best times for you to book your Christmas and Thanksgiving vacations for the best deals.

Luckily, Google provided some insights on the best times to book flights. For both holidays, but especially for Christmas, the back end of the month appears to have the best deals on flights.

“If you already know where you’re going to fly, our best advice is to enter your trip details on Google Flights and look for the insights that show you the cheapest time to book your chosen destination and dates,” advised James Byers, group product manager of search for Google. It appears that, generally, domestic flight prices for Thanksgiving slump to their lowest levels around 45 days before departure, while those around Christmas time are at their lowest around 48 days before takeoff.

What’s particularly great about using Google Flights is the intuitive tools it offers to help you get the best deals. Now, Google can inform you when prices on your selected trip have been at their lowest so that you can ensure that you book your tickets at the most opportune time.
