Written by Leandro Agostini on February 7, 2022. Posted in Destination news, Hotel.

February 7, 2022 – Since its inception, Cora Cora Maldives has always been an innovator! It’s ‘It’s Freedom Time’ ethos is at the core of everything the luxury five-star resort does, and Cora Cora Maldives has announced it is the very first and only resort in the destination to have an all-female airport welcoming team.

Cora Cora becomes only Maldivian resort to have an all-female airport welcome team

Manager Rifga and her remarkable team of ladies; Jamsheedha, Nadheema, and Lomra are leading the way in Maldivian female empowerment. Aged between 25 and 34, the fabulous airport team is an inspiration to Maldivian women and young girls everywhere, illustrating that Maldivian women can have a successful career and hold management positions should they wish.

Cora Cora Maldives is changing the game and leading the charge for other resorts to (hopefully) follow. By ensuring an all-women team is on-hand at the airport to assist guests, not only are they providing their guests with exemplary customer service to start their holiday off in a relaxing manner, but they are also showing the entire world that female empowerment and equality is a top priority for Cora Cora Maldives. With their great abilities in terms of empathy, precise communication, and networking skills, the all-female airport greeting team have already shown their fantastic value for Cora Cora Maldives and make guests feel welcome the moment they step off the plane.

Justin Swart, the General Manager of Cora Cora Maldives enthuses, “It’s not easy for women in Male to find good jobs and hopefully we have set the standard, and this will encourage more women to seek employment and managerial roles. The Cora Cora Maldives all-women airport team are excellent at handling the incredibly logistically complex and high-pressure job they face at Velana International Airport. We have received only positive feedback from our guests regarding our ground handling team and are therefore immensely proud of the team who we see as our ambassadors 200km away from the island that is responsible for “the first and last impression” of Cora Cora Maldives.”

Cora Cora Maldives offers its guests a one-of-a-kind immersive Maldivian cultural, experiential, and culinary experience. Comprising of 100 villas, four restaurants, two bars, MokshaÒ Spa and Wellbeing Center, water sports & diving center, gym, overwater yoga pavilion, outdoor cinema, kids’ club, and Dutch Onion Art Gallery. Cora Cora Maldives is 45-minutes by seaplane from Velana International Airport or 30 minutes by domestic flight followed by a 20-minute speedboat journey. Cora Cora Maldives is the ultimate idyllic, island escape.

Lithuania reopens to European tourists

Written by Leandro Agostini on February 7, 2022. Posted in Destination news, Travel Advice.

February 7, 2022 – Lithuania has confirmed it is finally ready to welcome back travellers.

Lithuania reopens to European tourists

As of now, tourists from the European Union and European Economic Area will only need to prove they are vaccinated against Covid-19.

Paperwork to prove a traveller has recovered from Covid-19 or has tested negative will also be accepted, a statement said.

Lithuanian officials said it will also no longer be required to present a National Certificate (or another Covid-19-related document) to access indoor public spaces including tourist accommodations, restaurants, museums, sport or cultural event venues.

Only individual security measures, such as wearing masks or respirators indoors and distance-keeping are applied.

Before the pandemic, the tourism sector made up a significant part of the local economy, amounting to over €977 million in total spent every year.

In 2019, almost two million tourists visited the country.

The reopening decision followed the recent recommendation of the World Health Organisation to lift or ease travel restrictions because such measures may cause economic and social harm.

“These are big steps back to normality in the tourism sector.

“Statistics show that people’s desire to travel remains at a very high level all over the world.

“We are happy that Lithuania eases restrictions to be more open to foreign visitors because, especially this year, there is so much to see and experience in Lithuania and its biggest cities,” said Olga Gončarova, general manager of Lithuania Travel, the national tourism development agency.

British Airways new flights

Written by Traveltalksteam on February 7, 2022. Posted in Airline, Destination news.

February 7, 2022 – British Airways new flights –

British Airways has today announced that it will be introducing a new destination to its Heathrow short-haul network, Nuremberg, located in Bavaria, Germany.

Flights to this European city will initially operate four times a week from March 27. The schedule will then increase to six flights per week schedule starting from 1 May 2022 and four times a week over the winter months. The airline has conveniently timed winter flights so that customers can connect to and from other destinations across British Airways’ route network, including services to the US.

Nuremberg is Bavaria’s second largest city after Munich, and is well known for its cultural landmarks that draws visitors year round, so customers can stroll along the vibrant streets or cruise down the beautiful Danube river in the sunshine, as well as explore the spectacular Christmas markets during the festive season.

Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ Director of Networks and Alliances said: “After over 20 months of travel restrictions we know our customers are looking for new and exciting places to visit, so the addition of this route to our short-haul network ahead of the summer season is perfect timing for anyone who would like to plan their trips for the year ahead.

“Nuremburg offers something for everyone, ranging from sightseeing in the sunshine to exploring the German markets at Christmas, so we hope our customers take full advantage of this new destination to our network.”

British Airways’ return flights to Nuremberg will start from £69 in Euro Traveller and £202 in Club Europe. Or customers can use Avios as part payment, £59 plus 1,000 Avios or £72 plus 24,500 Avios* in Euro Traveller and Club Europe respectively.

Customers travelling in the airline’s Euro Traveller (economy) cabin can pre-purchase items from the Speedbird Café, in advance of travel, or can order additional snacks and drinks on board the flight directly to their seat using their mobile device.

The airline’s customers travelling in Club Europe (business class) have access to priority check in, lounges and restaurant style complimentary dining, including items from the airline’s ‘Best of British’ menus.

British Airways new flights

Last month, British Airways CityFlyer also announced new short-haul routes from London City to Luxembourg, Barcelona, Guernsey, Jersey, Milan and Thessaloniki operating from March 2022. The airline has also relaunched new gateways to the US, through the Atlantic Joint Business, such as London to Portland and Barcelona to Los Angeles as well as the addition of the islands of São Miguel and Terceira to British Airways’ Heathrow short-haul network launching this summer.

Notes to Editors:

The airline plans to initially operate 4 flights per week on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays starting on the 27 March 2022, and then intends to increase the schedule to 6 per week starting from 1 May 2022 and 4 times a week in winter (30 October 2022 – 25 March 2023).
Flights will be operating from London Heathrow Terminal 3.
*Prices are correct as of 27 January, British Airways T&Cs apply and prices are subject to change without notice.

Australia’s International borders to reopen on 21 February – fantastic news

Written by Traveltalksteam on February 7, 2022. Posted in Destination news, Travel Advice.

February 7, 2022 – Australia’s international borders to reopen on 21 February

Australia will reopen to all fully vaccinated visa holders on the 21 February 2021, meaning tourists, business travellers and other visa holders will finally be able to enter the country.

Announced today by Prime Minister Scott Morrison, the change will be a welcome boost to the struggling tourism industry which in 2018/19 generated more than $60 billion for the Australian economy.

Australia’s international borders to reopen on 21 February

Under the revised border rules, all eligible visa holders will be able to enter Australia as long as they have received two doses of a Therapeutic Goods Administration-recognised vaccine.

Those that have not will be subject to relevant state or territory quarantine requirements which differ nationally. In addition, unvaccinated travellers must provide proof of a medical reason that they cannot be vaccinated.

“I know the tourism industry will be looking forward to that,” PM Morrison said.

“Over the next two weeks they will have the opportunity…to be gearing up to welcome international visitors back to Australia.

“Our borders will be open from the 21st of February, and welcoming the world back to Australia.”

The change comes after the tourism industry’s peak bodies and business leaders called upon the Federal Government to ease international border restrictions – described by some as nonsensical.

Minister for Home Affairs Karen Andrews said the new border rules will aid in the recovery of Australia’s tourism industry which has been particularly hard hit by a lack of international visitors.

“We all understand that the tourism industry in Australia has been dealt a tremendous load through COVID,” Andrews said.

“But as of the 21st of February we will be welcoming back to Australia international visitors and that is going to be such a welcome relief for many tourist providers all around Australia.”

The announcement has already been welcomed by major industry players including Flight Centre Corporate managing director Australia James Kavanagh, who called it an “absolute game changer”.

“This is a truly momentous day for businesses big and small – it is they who will lead this country’s economic fightback – and there is no doubt this is an absolute game changer when it comes to Australia being open to the world once again,” Kavanagh said.

“It has been a long time coming but the critical part is once we open to the world, we stay open, and that will naturally inject real confidence into people wanting to travel. Confidence is already rising in the leisure space across the world – now it is time for that happen in the corporate space.

“There is no doubt visas, exemptions, and quarantine have all been a big hindrance to the corporate world – and although we expect some meetings and events to still exist in a virtual of hybrid manner – now is the time to get on planes to see colleagues, clients, and potential new customers.”

The Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC) said it was “ecstatic” at the international border reopening, noting the announcement gives “much-needed certainty to airports, airlines, tourism operators, and everyone involved in the international visitation industry”.

“More importantly, today is an extraordinary day for families and friends who have been apart throughout the pandemic, as they can now reunite on their own terms with their loved ones,” BAC said.

“After a challenging 24 months, BAC is more than ready to move forward with its partners to rebuild tourism across the state and reconnect Queensland to the world.”

Peak body Australian Tourism Export Council said the news means businesses can breathe a sigh of relief and begin rebuilding their markets.

“Australian tourism businesses will rejoice in the news that our borders will reopen to all international travellers on 21 February,” ATEC managing director Peter Shelley said.

“It’s been a long hard and desperate road for every tourism business across the country and we have lost many along the way, but this news will give those who have survived a clear target to work towards and a start point for the rebuilding of the industry.

“With close to two years with our borders closed our industry has lost tens of billions of dollars in export revenue and we welcome the border reopening as an opportunity to regain some of Australia’s tourism market share.”

He also said that the industry’s next challenge will be to meet demand successfully, “and that will involve tourism businesses rebuilding their lost capacity, product, service skills and supply chains”.

“Given the tourism industry has taken a devastating hit to its skills base, experience, expertise and global sales networks, we urge the Government to outline a significant funding commitment to our industry in next month’s budget as a sign of its support for what has been a hugely valuable economic contributor for more than a decade,” Shelley said.

The company today announced that the hotel will open its doors to the public on 11^th May 2022, and will begin taking reservations on February 4^th.

The Standard to Open its Asia Flagship in Bangkok May, 2022

The hotel is conveniently located in Bangkok’s central business district between the Sathorn and Silom corridors and is housed in the landmark King Power Mahanakhon Building, a 78-story mixed-use building that is one of the tallest in Thailand. It is also in close proximity to Bangkok’s Old Town with its wealth of cultural attractions and what has recently become the chosen enclave for the city’s dynamic creative community. The hotel will reflect the unmistakable energy of the Thai capital and infuse The Standard brand’s “anything but standard” ethos throughout the property.

“There is nothing in Bangkok, or the entire region, like what we have created here,” said Amar Lalvani, Executive Chairman for Standard International. “We love the energy, style and culture Bangkok offers and couldn’t be more proud to partner with King Power to open our flagship for the region in this awe inspiring building, in this incredible city. When we open our doors in May, visitors and locals will be treated to the world of immersive hospitality that only The Standard can create.”

With 155-rooms, The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon will become the brand’s flagship property in Asia. The hotel is designed by Spanish artist / designer Jaime Hayon in collaboration with The Standard’s award-winning in-house design team. The vibrant colors, fluid shapes, evolving art installations and lush greenery that flows seamlessly inside and out mark a sharp aesthetic departure from other luxury hotels in the city.

In addition to thoughtfully appointed guest rooms and suites, the hotel will feature an outdoor terrace pool (with the vibrant pool scene for which The Standard is known), the most advanced gym in Bangkok offering memberships to the local community and meeting / event rooms. As with all Standard hotels, there will be a dynamic array of restaurant, lounge, bar and nightlife offerings including the first international outpost of the renown Standard Grill and Thailand’s first outpost of the acclaimed Mott 32. In addition to the restaurants themselves, The Parlor will be a constant hub of music and activity offering snacks and cocktails while the fantasy filled tea room will offer treats found nowhere else in Bangkok. The rooftop will house Ojo, a Mexican inspired restaurant directed by one of the finest young chefs in Mexico. Visitors will also have access to sweeping views of the city from the highest al fresco sky beach in Bangkok. On the ground floor, the shop will carry a highly curated collection of local and foreign fashion, travel and home goods as well as one of a kind collaborations. All of it will live up to The Standard’s promise to be anything but.

This breath-taking new addition to The Standard’s portfolio will sit proudly alongside the brand’s award-winning US and European flagships, The Standard, High Line, and The Standard, London and in perfect counterpoint to The Standard’s waterside retreats in Miami, the Maldives, and Hua Hin, and it’s forthcoming Standard hotel in Ibiza, which is also set to open this Spring.

The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon is pleased to introduce its pre-opening offer of 25% discount from Best Available Rate, including breakfast for up to 2 persons. The offer is available for booking from Feb 4 to Jul 31 for stay period between May 11 and Feb 28, 2023.

About The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon:

Bangkok’s spirit of innovation and unconventionality made the Thai capital the perfect locale for our Asia flagship, The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon. Located in one of the most iconic buildings in the city, the 155-room hotel is already a landmark. With rooms ranging from 40 sqm to a sprawling 144 sqm penthouse, a terrace pool, fitness center and spa, meetings rooms and a dynamic variety of food, drink and nightlife venues, The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon is a fit for any traveler, at any time of day or night. There’s the Parlor, the hub of the hotel for check-in and out, cocktails, work or lounging, the eclectic and unexpected Tea Room, American steakhouse classics at The Standard Grill, and award-winning Chinese cuisine, sparkling ambiance and impeccable wine list by Mott 32.

About Standard International (The Standard Hotels):

Created in 1999, The Standard hotels are known for their taste-making clientele, their pioneering design, and their unrelenting un-standard-ness. With 6 hotels in New York, Miami, London, the Maldives, most recently Hua Hin and the upcoming The Standard, Ibiza and the Asia flagship, The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon slated to open in May 2022, the goal of every Standard project—be it a city hotel, a seaside resort or a rooftop bar—is to defy conventions, up the aesthetic stakes, and deliver an experience that can only be had at The Standard. The Standard’s unconventional and playful sensibility, combined with a careful consideration of design, detail and service, have established its reputation as a pioneer of hospitality, travel, dining, nightlife, and beyond. Sansiri PLC, Thailand’s leading real estate developer made its first investment into Standard International in late November 2017, which increased over time, making Sansiri PLC the majority stakeholder. www.standardhotels.com @thestandard

Starting Feb. 12, proof of vaccination or recovery will no longer be required to enter shops. A week later, on Feb. 19, entry into restaurants will be allowed for all who can prove vaccination, recovery or a negative coronavirus test.

Nehammer also said that lockdown restrictions for vaccinated people, which have been in place since November, will end this week.

Denmark and Sweden and Norway drop covid rules

Written by Traveltalksteam on February 3, 2022. Posted in Destination news, Travel Advice.

February 3, 2022 – Denmark and Sweden and Norway drop covid rules.

Almost all rules are non and void as of February 8 in Sweden and Norway. Denmark already opened up a few days ago. Denmark has lifted all of its domestic Covid-19 restrictions, including the wearing of face masks, making it the first European Union country to do so.

Nightclubs have reopened, late-night alcohol sales have resumed, and the Danish coronavirus app is no longer needed to enter venues.

While cases are still relatively high, the authorities say the virus no longer qualifies as a “critical threat”.

That is due to the country’s high vaccination rate, experts say.

Denmark and Sweden and Norway drop covid rules

Enough people have been vaccinated. In Norway the temporarily lock down has been removed.

Many other European countries are also opening up.

New Zealand to gradually reopen borders to travellers

Written by Leandro Agostini on February 3, 2022. Posted in Destination news, Travel Advice.

February 03, 2022, Officials in New Zealand have confirmed the country will begin to reopen its borders in the coming weeks.

New Zealand to gradually reopen borders to travellers

However, the process is not expected to be completed until October at the earliest.

Earlier plans to reopen the country were shelved as the Omicron variant of Covid-19 spread around the world.

Borders have been closed, apart from a short-lived travel bubble with Australia, for nearly two years in response to the pandemic.

“With our community better protected we must turn to the importance of reconnection,” explained prime minister, minister Jacinda Ardern.

“Families and friends need to reunite.

“Our businesses need skills to grow.

“Exporters need to travel to make new connections.”

The border will initially open to vaccinated New Zealand citizens and visa holders coming from Australia, then from the rest of the world, and finally to all other vaccinated visitors.

Travellers will still have to self-isolate at home for ten days, but will no longer have to pass through space-limited managed isolation facilities, known as MIQ.

Fully vaccinated New Zealanders and other eligible travellers from Australia will be able to enter New Zealand without staying in MIQ from February 27th.

Two weeks later, they can come from all other countries.

Critical workers and skilled workers will be eligible to enter New Zealand from this date.

The working holiday scheme will also resume.

Ardern said the two-week gap will enable public health systems to adjust for the likelihood of more cases in the community, and will allow the border systems to “keep scaling up in the safest way possible”.

From April, 5,000 international students and other eligible temporary visa holders will be allowed to enter.

After that, the border opens to Australians and other travellers who do not require a visa to enter New Zealand.

All other international visitors will be allowed to enter New Zealand from October.

Written by Leandro Agostini on February 3, 2022. Posted in Airline, Destination news.

February 3, 2022 – British Airways has announced that it will be introducing a new destination to its Heathrow short-haul network, Nuremberg, located in Bavaria, Germany.

British Airways to add Nuremberg flights next month

Flights to the European city will initially operate four times a week from March 27th.

The schedule will then increase to six flights per week schedule starting from May 1st and four times a week over the winter months.

The airline has conveniently timed winter flights so that customers can connect to and from other destinations across British Airways’ route network, including services to the US.

Nuremberg is Bavaria’s second largest city after Munich, and is well known for its cultural landmarks that draws visitors year-round, so customers can stroll along the vibrant streets or cruise down the beautiful Danube river in the sunshine, as well as explore the spectacular Christmas markets during the festive season.

Neil Chernoff, British Airways director of networks and alliances, said: “After over 20 months of travel restrictions we know our customers are looking for new and exciting places to visit, so the addition of this route to our short-haul network ahead of the summer season is perfect timing for anyone who would like to plan their trips for the year ahead.

Located next to the streets of Ly Thai To and Tran Nguyen Han, the newly announced Fairmont Hanoi will place guests in the heart of the city centre when it opens in 2024..

This highly anticipated property is being designed by Perkins Eastman and Aston Design as a reflection of Thăng Long culture and history, taking inspiration from lacquer art, Indochinese style and motifs from Vietnam’s dynasties.

“The signing of the first Fairmont city hotel in Vietnam is a significant step forward in Accor’s development within the country,” said Garth Simmons, CEO of Accor Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea. “Our ambition is to debut a greater collection of premium and luxury offerings to meet the rapidly growing demand for high-end hospitality in the market. A stay in any Fairmont hotel is truly unforgettable – our guests love to visit this collection of grand, awe-inspiring properties and appreciate the thoughtful service they receive each and every stay.

“Fairmont Hanoi will offer an experience that is steeped in local culture and is sure to become intrinsic to the local neighbourhood. The signing of this iconic address demonstrates our appreciation for Vietnam’s development of tourism and its ability to provide leading hotel standards.”

An urban retreat

This urban resort will treat guests to no fewer than six dining and drinking venues, including a rooftop restaurant, and provide appealing amenities such as two indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a gym, a spa and a bathhouse. Catering for both corporate and celebratory events, the property is to incorporate an impressive 1,000 sq m grand ballroom, as well as nine meeting rooms.

Thanks to its central location, the forthcoming hotel is only a ten-minute walk from Hoàn Kiếm Lake and the Old Quarter. It aims to become a firm favourite for leisure and business travellers alike, with a hospitality offering reflecting the 1907-founded luxury brand’s roots and global reputation.
