A Map of the World's Best Restaurants
Whenever we have a chance to sit down with iconic chefs, cookbook authors, and jet-setting travel show hosts, we can't help but ask: What meals would you hop on a plane for? We're curious about the lauded tasting menus that are really worth it and also the blink-and-miss-it street vendors whose food will change your life in seconds. Our global food map is an interactive compilation of these types of recommendations. And they come from the best in the business.
Why You Should Wear Sunscreen on a Plane
Frequent fliers know how tough travel can be on your skin. And while social media has played a role in normalizing the use of in-flight face masks and multi-step moisturizing routines, many of us are still skipping the SPF when we fly. This left us wondering: Should you wear sunscreen on a plane? We asked experts for their opinion and to help break down the risks associated with UV exposure at 30,000 feet.
What It's Like Flying on the Bombardier Global 7500, the World's Fastest Long-Haul Business Jet
“It’s not every day you wish your flight was longer, but after a far-too-short trip on the $80-million Bombardier Global 7500, I certainly did,” writes Stefanie Waldek. On February 28, Canadian aircraft manufacturer Bombardier flew from San Luis Obispo, California to London in 9 hours and 17 minutes, setting the aircraft's 100th speed record—and solidifying its status as the fastest business jet in the ultra-long-range segment. That is, until Bombardier’s newest model, the Global 8000, rolls out later this year. With a range of 8000 nautical miles and top speeds of Mach 0.94, it’s poised to be the world’s fastest and longest-range business jet.
