MAKE SOMEONE’S DAY

I just boarded flight to Vegas for a conference, Virtuoso Travel Week. I am excited to be spend the week meeting new colleagues and partners in the travel industry. It will be a crazy busy week, but worth every minute of it. But while I was boarding, I was reminded that this is a service industry. With all things covid, its been easily forgotten that its okay to be nice to people, to be social, etc. Today’s post is going to be about how we can Make Someone’s Day.

TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS

Hawaii has certainly become an even more popular destination than it was previously with the travel restrictions going on. However, I come with some good news in relation to visiting Hawaii. Hawaii has just relaxed its travel restrictions for fully vaccinated travelers. So if you are 15 days past the second shot (or 15 days past the J&J shot) then you can travel to Hawaii without testing. They also no longer require testing to travel between the islands anymore. You do, however, still have to upload your information to the Safe Travels Portal. You can click here for more information on that.

SMALL LUXURY HOTELS

Having just returned from an amazing trip to Greece, I wanted to share some wonderful boutique small luxury hotels. These are actually part (well two out of the three here) of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. This brand is all about independent travelers matching with independent spirited hotels. There are 520 hotels in more than 90 countries that fall into this brand. All of these boutique hotels are anti-chain. They tend to average 50 rooms, and the properties are often secluded, discrete and high luxury standards. No two hotels are the same in this brand. Let’s explore two of the brands (and share another just because it was amazing as well).
