Maho Beach is definitely one of the most impressive beaches in the world. Set on the island of St. Maarten in the Caribbean, it is immediately adjacent to the Princess Juliana International Airport of St Maarten. Thanks to its proximity to the airport, many tourists are attracted to Maho Beach in order to be right underneath the aircraft seconds before landing. 

The beauty of Maho Beach lies in Giant planes would be landing virtually feet above your head. Incoming air traffic is known to have to touch down as close as possible to the beginning of runway 10 due to the short runway length of 2,180 m resulting in low-flying aircraft on their final approach over the beach. The location is very popular and creates amazing opportunities for some of the most spectacular beach pictures and videos. So, get out your camera! You can lie on the beach, catch some rays, and photograph the underbelly of a 747 just a few yards above your head. There is no other place in the world where you could watch planes passing so close to you.

Singapore is known as a traveler’s paradise with over 7.6 million visitors by August this year. But the Singapore tourism ministry had decided adding more glamour so they have created the Jewel Cable Car. The new cableway system is LED-illuminated and connects Mount Faber to Sentosa Island. Touted as the world’s first VIP crystal-studded cable cars the new system offers its occupants 7-star luxury treatments.

The system comprises no less than 67 cabins, capable of seating 8 people and equipped with flip-up seats. These VIP cars are studded with Swarovski crystals and the ride in them you’ll be surrounded by opulence and beauty on the inside as well as by breathtaking landscape views on the outside. The interiors have black leather upholstered chairs which arm rests also have Swarovski black crystals. These ultra-luxurious cabins will surely redefine the standards of luxury, as they feature a crystal panel glass floor and roof by Swarovski.

A trip that takes about 13 minutes and it costs $24-$26 each way.

Jon Dunbar is a great traveler and photographer. Today I’m going to present you his last urban exploring in South Korea – the Boeing 747 restaurant, looming huge over the highway, and yet dwarfed by a swarm of apartment buildings all around.

Jon says: “Thanks to the helpful people at Urban Exploration Resource I discovered that this was the second Boeing 747 ever made and apparently the first to be flown commercially.”

This is somewhat surreal shot: it almost looks like this Jumbo 747 landed on a poor little building, which still tries to be cheerful with all these painted Pokemons and a satellite dish:

The menu, and typical restaurant bar trinkets.

Los Angeles International Airport

There’s so much potential to improve airline travel in so many ways with the creation of  a better experience, deliver a sense of freedom that was previously unavailable to all but the wealthiest of travelers. Sustainability and energy efficiency are extremely important. There’s a trend of pushing cars farther away from the terminals and improving access to public transit with better rail links and easy-to-use connections. Quieter airplanes make it possible to close the distance between city and airport, which will cut down transit times.

Incheon International Airport Seoul

Today architects have to reconsider the basic structure of airports. If they land planes on an incline to assist in deceleration and have runways end on top of the terminals to eliminate the need for taxiing, they can save billions of gallons of fuel each day. It’s not that radical an idea. They can utilize the concept to make airports more efficient.

It is a focus of constant motion, and yet the traveler ?is encouraged to pause for a plate of ?raw oysters or a relaxing cocktail, ?or to sit on a comfortable bench and gape at the terminal’s celestial ceiling, upon which the cosmos have been painted.

There will never be a final word on airport design, as airports are in a constant state of flux.

Mood lighting reliеve the stress of jet lag for long-haul passengers and also supplies a relaxing atmosphere.

Mozambique is a Portuguese colony and home to over 1, 500 miles of undeveloped Indian Ocean beachfront. Some of the finest diving and deep sea marlin fishing in the world and a unique Afro-Iberian-Brazilian culture with one of the most relaxing tourism destination.

The capital of Mozambique is Maputo which is one of the safer capitals in Africa. The city sits both on the Indian Ocean and at the confluence of the three rivers. The primary language is Portuguese and many young Mozambicians speak English.

In Maputo, inside many of the older structures Mozambicians have built cafes and restaurants with great Mozambician food, one of the world’s original cuisines. Because Mozambique wasn’t influenced only by Portugal but also by Arab trades and migrants from Portugal’s Asian and Latin colonies, Mozambique’s cosmopolitan cuisine mixed Brazilian spices, local seafood and tropical fruits.

The ideal time to visit Mozambique is May through October, the cooler, drier season. January through April is hot and rainy, which also can be a fine time to visit, as long as you’re prepared for occasional wet spells. October through January is brutally hot and uncomfortable.

From New York, the fare to Maputo, on a code-share flight between American Airlines and South African Airways, with stops in London and Johannesburg, would cost roughly $1,835, based on a prices being quoted for a 21-day advance-purchase ticket in mid-May.
