Air travel is seeing a new and plush fashion trend emerging on the travel scene. The idea of traveling with bulky and staid carry on luggage has become passé. The new styles of luggage cases that have entered the market are the both trendy and sleek and luxurious.
The 360 Degrees Four Diamond Collection from the German company Titan has come up with polycarbonate hard case trolleys which are scratch proof, lightweight and are chic and sturdy. The outer hard cover is designed in diamond pattern textures which glitter in the light similar to a diamond. The different color range from black to blue and champagne are highlighted by this diamond like feature. The trolley also comes with an attachable see-through toiletry case.
T-Tech Polycarbonate Plus 22” from Tumi is a sleek carry on trolley which has a strong three layered polycarbonate cover. This bag stands out with its visual features as the trolley has a smooth feel and comes in a stunning color range from black to a titanium color and a flame yellow to name a few.
The Salsa Cabin Trolley from the Rimowa workshop is one of the most sturdy and resilient carry on bags available today. The company has taken its trademark grooved design and imitated it on the new polycarbonate trolleys. It is ultra light and easy to carry around but does not compromise on the durability factor.
The Black Label range of carry on trolleys from Samsonite designed by Alexander McQueen is chic and yet very practical. It’s designs – the Al1, a human ribcage pattern and the Al2, a faux crocodile leather skin trolley is what makes it visually attractive. These trolleys are also available in black, white and silver.
The OneHundred&Ten Air Cabin by Globetrotter is at the top in the luxury stakes as the lightest carry on which is also bullet proof. Made with a customized carbon fiber and Kevlar this carry on is stronger than steel but ultra light.
Taking a cue from Cathay Pacific which is popular with elite travelers for its uber sophisticated and plush airport lounge, Lufthansa has taken this definition of luxury and come up with a new, improvised business class lounge, the first of its kind at Germany’s Frankfurt airport. This airport lounge which is open exclusively to Lufthansa’s elite travelers is a novel approach to indulging the business class and first class traveler who will settle for nothing but the best.
For the first class traveler who has comfort, class and luxury on the mind, a stop-over at the Frankfurt Lufthansa first class lounge will present all this and much more. The traveler is offered the luxury of valet service to park the car or return of a rented car back to the rental agency. With an escort to take care of the passenger check in formalities, the first class traveler is given the luxury of relaxing in the lounge area and enjoying its plush comfort.
From the Spa area that pampers the traveler with bubble baths, massages, and various skin treatments to secluded areas to rest between connecting flights, this is only the beginning of a luxurious experience.
The cigar lounge and waiting area are all about plush décor and sophisticated style. Passengers can unwind with friends or business partners while waiting for their flight. The exclusive traveler is also offered a choice of fine wines in addition to a wide range of gourmet cuisine that have been created by some of the best chefs.
The exclusivity of the lounge does not end here. The traveler is taken to the plane in a Porsche or a Mercedes after a quick security check. The Frankfurt Lufthansa first class lounge is an excellent example of luxurious comfort and style that is taken forward to the plush facilities offered to the elite passenger on the flight.
This is probably every child’s dream come true! As kids we’ve all dreamed of reaching the moon someday. The idea of going to the moon is synonymous with a lot of things, for e.g. freedom, reaching great heights professionally and personally and even giving someone the best.
Now you can literally go on the moon and around it as well, it is as simple as touring a well known tourist spot. This dream of travelling to the moon has become possible because of a few companies who have portrayed the moon as a luxury tourist destination area. This is one reason why people wouldn’t mind packing their bags, just for a hop on the moon and back.
Virgin Atlantic has always been known for doing the unexpected. This time around they plan on a route that will take tourists to the low earth orbit. Giving them competition is Space Adventures who plan on taking tourist around the moon. Beginning with this new idea they have already sent a few tourists to their International Space Station for a few days.
If you plan on being one of those tourists, then get ready to shell out $150 million. This is a weeklong trip that you will never forget. The experience will etch in your minds, and will be top of your conversation topic for years and generations. Obviously until the time, going to the moon becomes an everyday thing.
This project will take a while to conceptualise; you will have to wait for a good three or five years, for the first set of tourists to go to the moon. But we say, the wait is worth it, especially if going to the moon and back has always been your dream.

Concept vehicles are seen regularly at motor and car shows. The newest vehicle – call it a car or call it a plane or then you can call it both, is a flying machine and a car rolled into one. Created by Terrafugia – The Transition seems to be a vehicle right out of a fantasy story book.
Aptly named ‘The Transition’, this car changes from being a simple car to transforming into a flying machine in a few moments. This car cum plane is a successful attempt to merge two different modes of traveling so that the owner can be driving one moment and then take to the air in the next.
The brainchild of enterprising Engineers from MIT, the Transition is a result of their innovative ideas and pooled resources. All it takes is to fold up the wings of the plane with a click of a few buttons, that can be done from the cockpit itself and you have a car ready to hit the road. The plane and car, a two-in-one vehicle is a compact vehicle that can seat two people comfortably with space for carry-on luggage and a golf set.
On land it is an easy to drive car with a rear wheel drive and other standard features. The car can be parked in the garage and does not need a hangar or any special parking area. The Light Sport Aircraft is fitted with a 100 hp Rotax 912S engine, latest crash safety elements, the newest glass avionics and a complete vehicle parachute device.
A Light Sport Aircraft pilot’s license with a minimum of 20 hours of flying is all it takes to get into the cockpit and for trained pilots a get acquainted course that comes with the vehicle-cum-plane is all that is needed to fly this compact beauty.
