Major European City Bans Rolling Suitcases

Under a new law suitcases must be carried and not dragged through the streets of the old town in Dubrovnik in Croatia, with anyone caught rolling their luggage facing a fine of £230 ($252).

The Croatian city sees a huge influx of visitors each year, which is great for the hospitality industry there, but not so fantastic for those wound up by the sound of miniature wheels rumbling across cobbles.

The anti-bag legislation is due to get even more severe in November, when all suitcases and bags will have to be left at the walls of the old town before visitors can enter.

Those laden with things who wish to enter the section of Dubrovnik will have to pay a courier to have their bags delivered to their accommodation by electric vehicle.

The laws have been passed by Dubrovnik mayor Mato Franković, who is attempting to lessen the impact of over tourism on the town.

Each year 1.5million people visit the city, which is almost 40 times the 41,000 people who live there full time.

Another additional noise-reducing measure just introduced will see cafes and bars with terraces where the noise level exceeds 55 decibels face fines and be forced to close for seven-day.

A video urging tourists to “respect the city,” will be shown on cruise ships docking at Dubrovnik and on Croatian Airline flights arriving in the country, Lonely Planet reports.

Walking around shirtless, riding bikes or e-scooters in the city centre, and climbing on statues are all behaviours that will be discouraged in the public announcement.

The city is currently trying to keep its world-heritage status six years after UNESCO warned disrespectful hordes were ruining the city.

In a bid to make Dubrovnik more sustainable, the number of tour buses and cruise ships docking in the port have been limited.

Despite this, the reputation of the city has only grown, capturing large numbers of the post-coronavirus-lockdown crowd looking to visit new place now that travel restrictions have been lifted.

Mayor Franković, who is trying to get the still rising tourist numbers to fall, said: “The most important thing is that Dubrovnik has stopped being a city of excessive tourism, although we still have a lot of work left.”

This UNESCO World Heritage site is one of the city's biggest highlights thanks to its eye-catching architecture, picturesque cobbled streets and beautiful Baroque churches.

If you are one of the 1.5million who make it there annually, a walking tour can be a great way of seeing the highlights.

Surrounding the Old Town are impressive walls which make for a scenic stroll as you can enjoy some great views of Dubrovnik and the ocean. The 1940 meters long-walls boast six fortresses.

Rector's Palace is one not to be missed off the itinerary with its intricate Gothic architecture, heaps of fascinating exhibits and plenty of artwork. If you're short on time it is possible to explore it under an hour or so, so if you are nearby it's still worth popping in.

If you're planning to spend a few days in the city it's worth leaving space on the itinerary for a trip to Banje Beach.

Here you'll find everything from high end bars and beach clubs to families tucking into picnics on towels along the shore.

The beach can get quite busy during peak seasons but it offers some pretty views of Dubrovnik, not to mention there are heaps of boat tours you can take to visit the islands.

Philadelphia's Only Surviving Revolutionary-Era Dive Bar Will Soon Open Its Doors Again

Colonial Philadelphia burst with bars. There were 101 taverns in the budding port town, or about 1 bar for every 160 citizens, historians say. But only A Man Full of Trouble survives.

It was the dive bar of the Revolution, a waterfront watering hole with an alluringly mournful name. But A Man Full of Trouble Tavern, Philadelphia’s only surviving pre-Revolutionary drinking spot, has been shuttered to the public for decades.

That hasn’t stopped generations of Philadelphians from wandering past the charming, if battered, brick building sitting in the shadows of the Society Hill Towers, and imagining bygone boozers whispering of sedition over the beers. One of the dreamers is Dan Wheeler, an Old City lawyer and real estate investor, who has decided to reopen the place.

Two years ago, Wheeler saw A Man Full of Trouble on a real estate listing and jumped at the chance to own a piece of history.

“I really couldn’t believe my eyes,” Wheeler said, of his $875,000 purchase of the bar and adjoining Colonial house “I’ve been waiting for this for 30 years.”

His plan is to bring life back to the old bar.

In June, Wheeler teamed up with Succession Fermentory, a Chester County brewery, for a Philly Beer Week pop-up at A Man Full of Trouble. It was the first time suds had been served at the tavern, which opened in 1759, in well more than a century.

“I want people to come back in here and breathe life back into this building that has been sitting fallow,” Wheeler said of the historic bar, once a museum and most recently owned by the University of Pennsylvania.

Wheeler, who is 59 and worked as an economic development official for Gov. Ed Rendell, plans to pair up with a microbrewery or distillery, which can sell its stuff in a barroom where regulars once tipped tankards. In the upstairs rooms, where sotted sailors were said to sleep five a bed, Wheeler plans to reopen a museum. One that could again honor the story of a colorful tavern with a colorful name — its original sign famously depicted the image of a man with a woman on his back —and learn about the ordinary Philadelphians who drank there.

“It’s the uniqueness of it,” he said. “You can’t even imagine all the things that went on here.”

It’s a small miracle A Man Full of Trouble even still exists. Colonial Philly burst with bars. There were 101 taverns in the budding port town, or about 1 bar for every 160 citizens, historians say. But only A Man Full of Trouble survives.

Built at 127 Spruce St., it was back then wedged between a brook and stinking Dock Creek. The name was lifted from a Bible passage: “Man who is born of woman is of few days and full of troubles.” Like other modest tippling houses, it was licensed for only beer and cider. While Jefferson and Franklin and their crowd enjoyed their punch at the cozy confines of City Tavern — demolished in 1854, with its current incarnation built in 1976 — it was working waterfront stiffs who bellied up to the bar at A Man Full of Trouble. Dockhands and shipwrights. Sailors stumbling off ships.

“Not the type of place you’d bring your girlfriend for a cocktail,” said Bob Skiba, a tour guide and historian, with a chuckle. “It was more of a divey spot.”

As was the way, a bartender served drinks from behind a small caged bar, which could be locked up at closing. Food was cooked above a fireplace in the dirt-floor basement. The tavern’s most well-known owner was a woman named Martha Smallwood, who tried to class the joint up from 1796 until her death in 1826. For a time, it became a hotel. Then, a wholesale chicken market.

In the 1960s, Virginia Knauer—a onetime City Councilwoman and director of the Federal Office of Consumer Affairs in Washington — and her husband saved the crumbling tavern from the wrecking ball. The couple painstakingly restored A Man Full of Trouble and cared for it as a museum from 1965 to 1994. With help from a University of Pennsylvania archaeological dig, they uncovered hundreds of artifacts from the tavern, including bits of fireplace tile and wallpaper.

The Knauers even restored the missing sign. They chose the less bawdy version, which hangs now. Pulled from a parable, it displays a man walking with his wife, a monkey, a cat and a magpie.

By 1994, the museum remained open only one day a month. The Knauers gave the buildings to Penn, which maintained it as housing for traveling faculty and students.

For his part, Wheeler hopes to have A Man Full of Trouble fully open by next spring. He advertised last month’s pop-up on an Instagram account, where he posts historic images of the tavern. A strong crowd showed.

“I turned around and it was 6 o’clock and nobody wanted to leave,” he said.

He is making some repairs, and, a history buff, throwing himself into research. He envisions the bar being open limited hours, with museum and gallery spaces that could host events.

For him, the allure of the tavern is still imagining its history.

“This would be a great place to plot a revolution,” he said.

Travelore News: Lufthansa Brings Its A380 Back To New York's JFK

Great news for Lufthansa customers in the New York area! The airlines much loved Airbus A380 returned to John F. Kennedy (JFK) Airport on July 4th, as the United States commemorated its official day of independence With its return to JFK, Lufthansa’s A380 sharply increases capacity this summer season to the important New York market with one of the world’s most technologically-advanced and largest aircraft. Furthermore, with this flight, Lufthansa continues to expand its premium offering at its Munich hub, especially with additional seats in Business and First Class. In addition to New York, Lufthansa introduced its A380 service to Boston Logan on June 1st and will resume flights to Los Angeles’ LAX in the upcoming winter season.

Flight LH410 departed Munich at 12:10pm and arrived in New York at 3pm. The return flight, LH411, left JFK at 5:30pm and arrived in Munich at 7:35am today. All times are local. The New York JFK – Munich route will operate daily.

Due to the sharp rise in demand in travel and the delayed delivery of ordered aircraft, Lufthansa decided in 2022 to reactivate the Airbus A380, which is particularly popular with passengers and crews. By the end of 2023, a total of four A380s will once again be deployed for service to and from Munich.

The A380 aircraft

The Airbus A380 is one of the world’s most fuel-efficient aircraft, burning about 12 percent less fuel than other wide-body jets, and is approximately 30 percent quieter than the current generation of wide-body aircraft. With 509 seats, the airline’s A380 has around 80 percent more capacity than its Airbus A340-600, which currently flies on the Boston - Munich route. In total, Lufthansa’s A380 offers four classes of travel: 8 seats in First Class, 78 seats in Business Class, 52 seats in Premium Eco and 371 seats in Economy Class.

Located on the upper deck, the First Class cabin is one the quietest cabins in commercial aviation and boasts an air humidification system – the first of its kind to be installed on a commercial aircraft – that improves air humidity to help fight off jet lag. Two large, luxurious bathrooms with separate changing and lavatory areas offer enhanced personal space and storage. The cabin’s eight generously proportioned, ergonomic seats measure 6’9” feet in length and 2’7” feet in width and provide the ultimate in comfort and innovation for an exceptional travel experience.

Also located on the upper deck is the Business Class cabin with 78 seats featuring improved functionality, including more storage and a power supply that works with all worldwide connections.

The main deck is home to Lufthansa’s Premium Economy class, where 52 seats are situated in the forward most compartment of the A380’s main deck. In addition to more private space with up to 50 percent more legroom, Premium Economy allows guests to travel with two pieces of luggage weighing 51 lbs. each. On board, every passenger is greeted with a welcome drink and in-flight meals are presented on menu cards and served on fine chinaware. Premium Economy passengers will also find an amenity kit at their seats which includes practical travel accessories, an electrical plug and a bottle of water.

The Economy Class is found on both levels of the aircraft. Each of its 371 seats features an in-seat video screen, an optimized ergonomic design and a slimmer seat back that adds two inches of personal space per passenger.

Travelore News: Thousands Of Los Angeles-Area Hotel Workers On Strike

Thousands of Los Angeles-area hotel workers went on strike on Sunday demanding pay hikes and improved benefits in a region where high housing costs make it difficult for low-wage earners to live close to where they hold jobs, union officials said.

Unite Here Local 11, which represents 15,000 workers at more than 60 major hotels in Los Angeles and Orange counties, declared the strike a day after the workers' contract expired. It marks one of the largest strikes to hit the U.S. hospitality industry in recent years.

The labor dispute comes during the July Fourth holiday weekend as Southern California's busy summer travel season goes into high swing. It overlaps with a Hollywood screenwriters strike that was headed into a ninth week, already taking a toll on the Los Angeles economy and showbiz production.

Hotel workers, including housekeepers, dishwashers, cooks, waiters, bellhops and front-desk agents, struggle to afford housing in cities where they work, and many were idled during the COVID-19 pandemic while industry profits soared, the union said in a statement.

"Our members were devastated first by the pandemic and now by the greed of their bosses," union co-president Kurt Petersen said in a statement.

An industry bargaining group representing more than 40 hotels accused the union of political posturing, pursuing the strike as an organizing tool and failing to negotiate in good faith.

Several thousand workers walked off the job starting Sunday morning at about a dozen hotels, and the numbers are expected to grow as the strike wears on, union spokesperson Maria Hernandez said.

Among the hotels targeted the first day, she said, were the InterContinental, Hotel Indigo, Millennium Biltmore and JW Marriott LA Live in downtown Los Angeles, as well as the Fairmont Miramar in Santa Monica, the Sheraton Universal in Universal City and Laguna Cliffs Marriott in Dana Point.

The industry bargaining group said its hotels would remain open with management and non-union staff filling in for striking workers.

The union reached a contract deal on Friday with the largest of its employers, the Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites in downtown L.A., averting a strike against that property, Hernandez said.

She urged the industry's negotiating coalition, the Coordinated Bargaining Group, "to follow the lead of the Westin Bonaventure."

TWO SIDES FAR APART
The bargaining group was negotiating on behalf of 44 unionized hotels, with the remaining 21 expected to go along with whatever settlement is reached, according to the Los Angeles City News Service.

The union said its workers earn $20 to $25 an hour and is demanding an immediate increase of $5 an hour and an additional $3 an hour in subsequent years of the contract, plus improved healthcare and retirement benefits.

Both the union and management said the hotel group has countered by proposing wage hikes of $2.50 an hour in the first 12 months and $6.25 over four years for most workers. Wages for housekeepers in Beverly Hills and downtown Los Angeles who currently earn $25 an hour would rise 10% next year and to more than $31 by 2027, under the industry's offer.

Unite Here also is seeking creation of a hospitality workforce housing fund, which according to management would be funded with a new 7% tax on guests staying at unionized hotels.

The union cites survey results showing 53% of hotel workers have either been forced to move in the past five years or will move in the near future due to soaring housing costs. Many workers report having to commute hours from areas where they live far outside the cities where they work, the union said.

Los Angeles has been a flashpoint for labor strife on several fronts this year, including the protracted writers strike and a three-day walkout in March by education support staff for the Los Angeles Unified School District.

The union representing 22,000 dockworkers at the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach and other West Coast terminals reached a contract deal in June after 13 months of protracted labor talks, averting a strike that could have disrupted U.S. supply chains.

State Of Nayarit Obtains Largest Number Of New ‘Magical Towns’

The state of Nayarit is in the mood to celebrate. Earlier this week, Mexico’s Ministry of Tourism (SECTUR) held a press conference in Mexico City where Nayarit State’s Minister of Tourism, Juan Enrique Suárez del Real Tostado, was presented five new Pueblos Magicos, or “Magical Towns,” designations for the Pacific Coast destination, including the towns of San Blas, Ahuacatlán, Amatlán de Cañas,Ixtlán del Río and Puerto Balleto.

The Pueblos Magicos initiative is a Mexican tourism program, similar to UNESCO Heritage sites, in which unique towns and cities are recognized for their significance to Mexican culture, including their contribution to the country’s history, architecture, gastronomy and arts. These Magical Towns benefit from multiple tourism programs. This year, 123 towns requested inclusion in the program and 45 were approved.

The current state administration of Nayarit worked to achieve Magical Towns status for the five municipalities that were awarded it. This was part of its objective to include the diverse tourism offerings found across the state in its travel and tourism infrastructure.

This achievement is a direct result of the policies of Governor Miguel Ángel Navarro Quintero, his administration and their shared commitment to both explore alternatives to mass tourism and develop the state’s sustainable rural tourism, ecological tourism and theme-based routes tourism offerings.

Travel and tourism campaigns in Nayarit have expanded to include colonial towns of the Sierra Madre, communities of the indigenous Huichol people, the ecological areas of Isla Marias and Marrietas and the 150miles of beaches found along the Riviera Nayarit coast. The state government has focused on providing small business training to residents, providing training of an international standard to tour operators, hoteliers, police, taxi drivers and DMCs, making tourism a valuable asset — especially to smaller communities.

Nayarit’s infrastructure has also seen a number of initiatives as part of this plan, including new roads to access remote communities statewide, enhancements in maritime access to San Blas and expansion and transformation of the airport at Tepic into the international Riviera Nayarit Airport. A tourism school has also been created to train future tourism leaders.

In addition, the tourism minister announced a new Magical Towns corridor in the southern part of Nayarit, creating a new tourism route across Jala, Ixtlan del Rio,Ahuacatlan, Compostela and Amatlan de Cañas. This will bring travelers to five of Nayarit’s Magical Towns and foster the opportunity for new businesses to emerge, from dining options, entertainment venues and museums to transportation services, health-care facilities and beyond. Tourism encourages new developments that both visitors and residents can avail themselves of year-round.

The magic of Nayarit’s nine Magical Towns awaits you. Dare to discover Nayarit.
