After a week of sailing around the South Ionian, we found ourselves spending a few days in Vasiliki in the south of the Greek island of Lefkada. This is a place that does watersports in style – it is not loud or lavish in the way some Mediterranean hotspots can be. Instead, there’s an understated […]

Working out which resorts are best suited for families isn’t always an easy task. We spoke to Florian and Lucinda from The Resorts Collection – experts on ultra-luxury in the Maldives – to find the best. As parents, you’ll naturally want your children to have the most amazing time on vacation, but it’s important that

Langkawi is the Malaysian holiday island that continues to call us back. We’ve been lucky enough to visit many times, staying in everything from luxury hotels to boutique hideaways and budget friendly guesthouses.

Located in the airport’s Non-Schengen area, this is the flagship lounge of AEGEAN’s growing ambitions — not just a resting spot, but a statement. Once you’ve meandered your way through the shops, following the business lounge signs, it opens at 5:00 am and runs until 1:00 am. It’s a lounge that cuts through the chaos

Barcelona buzzes during the summer with its lovely beaches and sun-bathed streets. With all that mentioned, it is nice to have some places that are cool and not exposed to the heat as the Mediterranean sun becomes more intense. There are various shaded parks, luxury beach clubs, and relaxing zones that are far from the

There are moments in travel — rare and oddly reassuring — when things may go off-script, yet leave you feeling more, not less, inclined to return. This was one of those moments. This year, AEGEAN Airlines quietly reinforced its role at the core of Greek aviation, stitching together the mainland and the islands with various
