Bridal Destination: Destination weddings are great, in that they 1) keep out the riffraff, and 2) conveniently fold into honeymoons after the nuptials. A new series of wedding experiences from Auberge Resorts Collection is tailor-made for such unions. Each Auberge property worldwide was challenged to create a “Love Story” experience, incorporating the character of the destination, from wine tastings in Calistoga to a canoe chauffeur in Hawaii. Our favorite: prenuptial massages in Cabo.
Aspirational Renting: Is that Ford Focus from Hertz just not doing it for you? German luxury rental company SIXT is expanding to the West Coast, just in time for your next trip to L.A. and commensurate Mercedes-Benz needs.
Round and Round: Has the year’s $300-ticket-to-Europe window closed? After a flurry of cheap tickets from Icelandair in February, TAP Air Portugal unleashed $320 tickets in April. We hope a new spate finds its way to the public for September and October – the best time to go, anyway. Keep an eye on scottscheapflights.com and other sites.
