?? The Art of Invitation (& Acceptance) ??

Call us shamelessly minimalist, but when it comes to sending an RSVP, if it's not a "hell yes," it's a "no."

Of course we have all the best news, trends, and trade show treasures from ILTM in Singapore, that and more in this month's issue of LuxuryWise. But there's a party in January you won't want to miss out on – the details for which you'll read about only here. Let's just say it puts the "U" in UHNW. LuxuryWise Editor-in-Chief, Iris K?pke takes you through this most festive summer issue. Stay current, stay IN – stay LuxuryWise. ?

Fellow Luxury Travel Professionals,

Today we explore the art of invitation. Intrigued? Well, we know all too well that sometimes saying "yes" is just as important as saying "no," but then again – you are reading the best publication in the industry, so naturally everything you'll find here is a "hell yes."

For example, Private Luxury Events – the high-end event organizers from the UK – are inviting selected top executives from the international luxury travel industry to a brand new trade show that aims to highlight the "U" in UHNW. It's appropriately called Ultra – exclusive details await!

Speaking of trade shows, our very own Jacques Ledbetter was invited to ILTM Asia Pacific 2024 and has all the best news and hidden gems from Singapore. You don't want to miss these highlights!

While we're on the topic of gems, let's not overlook the treasure chest of South America, specifically Brazil, as we invite you to check out our Discovery of the Month.

In another lesser-thought-of corner of the world for luxury travel, LuxuryWise's Cathrin Lührs takes you all around the USA Capital Region, which is definitely worth a visit, especially if your clients are wine and history lovers! In the meantime, Melanie Haass explored the brand new Maxx Royal Bodrum in Turkey's trendiest jetset destination.

Perhaps it was perchance (or maybe we were just invited to the right event), where we uncovered the story of this month's Luxury Ambassador of the Month, Chinmoy Lad .

But alas! Don't let all these glistening, glamourous stories let you overlook the best parts of our exciting Product News, the biggest trends in our Luxury Travel News, or of course the most enlightening Inspirations. Who knows? Maybe you'll feel inspired enough to invite some friends or co-workers along for one of our Deluxe Deals!

All teasing aside, we now invite you to hop onboard the July issue and enjoy the ride.

Happy summer!

Yours,

Iris M. K?pke

Editor-in-Chief
