All you need to know about visiting Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris

Before I could even place it on a map, I had heard glowing reports of life in Tbilisi.

The budget for acquisitions at Hyatt appears to have no limit.

Sydney's sun-blasted image as being laid-back has been well exported, so first-time visitors might be surprised that the coastal city has a lot of rules by which Sydneysiders tend to abide. There are the obvious ones, like no littering or speeding (spoiler: you will get fined), but there are more than a few unwritten rules visitors should be aware of. The city may be famous for its coffee, for example, but you might get a blank stare if you ask for a black filter. Catching your own fish can be controversial. And then come the questions: How far is too far from the beach to wear a Speedo? What is swimming etiquette? Why can’t you get a glass of wine on the sand? To tip or not to tip? Plus, you’ll be surprised to read where open-toe shoes are banned.

Global getaways are a click away. Frontier Airlines, a Denver-based discount air carrier, recently announced it would continue the “Go Wild!” pass, extending the product offer through 2027, and is now pre-selling the pass at a discounted rate. The annual pass, which regularly costs $499, will be dropped to only $299 for the first 5,000 people who register their interest in obtaining the pass when it goes on sale in 2025.  The pass provides unlimited air travel within Frontier's network between May 1, 2025 and April 30, 2026.

Don’t litter; don’t vandalize public property; don’t chew gum. Singapore, which Condé Nast Traveler readers named one of the best cities in the world in 2024, has laws so famously stringent that T-shirts gently poking fun at them make popular tourist souvenirs. (The gum thing is actually often misconstrued: it’s actually illegal to import and sell gum, but not to chew it.) That said, in this intricately multicultural East-meets-West metropolis of nearly six million people and 95 ethnic groups, it’s the rules that tether society. Which is why we Singaporeans are such sticklers for them; in fact, we’ve added many of our own unofficial decrees to the rule book—from the correct way to save a table at a hawker center, to how to behave on the local subway system. If you overhear one person grumbling, it’s more often than not because another has breached this community code of conduct.

Paris’ Notre Dame has officially reopened its doors after suffering a devastating fire five years ago, and is ready to welcome visitors.

On April 15, 2019, a catastrophic fire destroyed parts of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. The 12th-century cathedral's iconic bell towers survived the blaze, but its spire and roof collapsed, coating the interior in toxic lead dust.

There are many reasons why you may be wondering how to become a flight attendant. Many travelers see the career as an opportunity to jet set around the world (and get paid to do so), while others are drawn to the job’s human-facing elements—one colleague told me that she was inspired to become a flight attendant after two cabin crew members heroically performed CPR on her mother mid-flight.

The best trips are often a result of well-planned itineraries tailored to your tastes.

JetBlue is shaking up its route network, cutting or changing a dozen less profitable flights across the world.
