Japan Airlines is the most family-friendly airline, according to a new ranking. Airlines from Asia dominated a new family-friendly airlines list compiled by travel website The Family Vacation Guide. The ranking was based on eight factors — including seat comfort, free seat selection and pre-boarding for families — for a total of 18 possible points. Yet lap fees are common: all airlines charged them but for Hawaiian Airlines and Lufthansa. Asia — big on familyPraowpan Tansitpong, an assistant professor at Nida Business School, attributed the dominance of Asian airlines on the family-friendly list to a difference in business priorities.

☆ Is FOSO the new FOMO? How the 'fear of switching off' could affect your vacations
  + stars: | 2023-11-01 | by ( Lee Ying Shan | Harriet Akinyi | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
The nagging feeling which keeps travelers tethered to their devices has been coined the fear of switching off, or FOSO. It's loosely similar to the fear of missing out (FOMO), commonly denoted as the worries of not being included in exciting experiences or activities that others are a part of. FOSO can be seen as an extension of FOMO, said Handcock. "The fear of disconnecting from devices partially stems from a fear of missing out on work and home updates," he elaborated. Gideon Mendel | Corbis Historical | Getty ImagesAccording to the survey by Priority Pass, FOSO is more prevalent among younger travelers.

A quick-and-easy test is to look for two items, said Sonu Shivdasani, founder of Soneva and Six Senses hotel brands. First, sustainable hotels should not have branded water of any sort, he told CNBC Travel. "Governments can create the context, but businesses need to make the change," Shivdasani told CNBC Travel. Source: SonevaShivdasani said he decided to institute a guest environmental levy after the company measured its "scope 3" emissions. Shivdasani said that after Soneva determined that 85% of its carbon emissions were "scope 3" emissions, the company introduced the 2% carbon levy.
