    Press Release



    updated: Dec 20, 2017

    On 20 December, the coveted Quiet Hotel Award will be presented for the 3rd time. The winner has been selected from the over 157 European hotels that have acquired the Quiet Room® label. This year’s winner is the Mövenpick Hotel Amsterdam City Centre, a 4-star hotel in possession of 408 QR-qualified rooms.

    As always, the participating hotels have been meticulously reviewed by the Quietroom Foundation, which oversees the quality and sets the standards for the QR-label. Selection criteria include things like hotel location, number of QR-qualified rooms, design & build measures for sound insulation, and client reviews on social media.

    The 2017 winner of the award is located on the river IJ, close to Amsterdam’s historic centre and just 20 minutes from Schiphol Airport. It was renovated in 2013 and in 2017 the  Mövenpick had all its rooms certified for the Quiet Room® label. 31 rooms have qualified for the highest Quietroom category, the remainder for the second category.

    According to Lucas Keizer of the Quietroom Foundation, ‘the excellent performance of the Mövenpick Hotel Amsterdam City Centre with regard to sound insulation is partly due to the use of QR-certified products and manufacturers, which guarantees that renovation and insulation measures meet the highest possible standards.’

    4WD Supacentre Announces Launch of Brand-New Range of Adventure Kings Portable Ice Boxes

    [ad_1]

    Press Release



    updated: Dec 20, 2017

    4WD Supacentre has recently announced the launch of a Brand-new range of Adventure Kings Portable Ice Boxes.

    The release marks the first of a series of newly released summer products from Adventure Kings, and is available for purchase through the 4WD Supacentre network of retail outlets, licensed dealers and online shopping.

    Through rigorous research and development, the product management team worked tirelessly with manufacturers and engineers to produce what they believe to be “one of the best value ice boxes on the market.”

    Released in 4 sizes 40L, 60L, 80L and 100L, they are made from a durable blue polyurethane plastic with highly efficient CFC-Free Polyurethane foam core which has proven itself among many brands on the market to be one of the most environmentally friendly and efficient insulation solutions available, leaving less of an impact on the environment and providing more insulation than has been traditionally available for keeping food and beverages cold during typical outdoor activities such as camping, boating, fishing or 4WDing.

    The product development team has stuck to the typical Adventure Kings approach of “affordable quality”, and been firmly committed to make sure that the Adventure Kings Ice Boxes have a lot of similar features found on much more expensive units that are available on the market, such as the integrated drain plug, thick EVA seals and stainless-steel latches, customers can be assured that they are getting more than your money’s worth

    The Adventure Kings range of Ice Boxes are priced competitively and have been released at the beginning of the Australian summer, this timing is perfect for the Australian consumer who is looking for a high-value product at a minimal price tag, and with the development team’s attention to detail, is sure to not disappoint.

  • Myanmar Tourism Marketing Announces New Tourist Sites Opening in Myanmar

    Myanmar Tourism Marketing Announces New Tourist Sites Opening in Myanmar

    [ad_1]

    Press Release



    updated: Dec 14, 2017

    Myanmar has been working hard to open more tourist sites and areas for foreign tourists to discover a country which has often been called “one of the last frontiers” to open up for tourists. Since the beginning of December, the “Secretariat building”, which is arguably the biggest colonial building in Southeast Asia has been opened for the public, offering guided tours four times per day through this historical building. “Visitors get to see historically significant sites such as Myanmar’s very first parliament, the flagpole where the Myanmar flag was raised for the first time on Myanmar Independence day (1948) and the Martyrs’ room where General Aung San and other martyrs were assassinated,” says U Kan Win Oung from Asia Tours Myanmar, who is operating the tours to travel agents as well as individual tourists. He continues saying, “Currently we are open on Mondays to Fridays (slots available at 9:30, 11:30, 13:30, and 15:30 respectively) and on Saturdays at 9:30 a.m. only.” Entrance fees for this site included a guided tour is 6 USD / person.

    This latest tourists site added to the “must visit places” in Myanmar covers an area of 6.5 hectares right in the centre of Yangon. Early adapters visiting Myanmar in the beginning of 2000 might remember this as the heavily guarded site which couldn’t be approached or have pictures taken of. Yangon Heritage Trust chairman Dr Thant Myint-U said in a previous interview with the Myanmar Times about the building: “The Secretariat is a place of tremendous historical importance and a physical link to Myanmar’s colonial history as well as the history of anti-colonialism and the early post-independence governments.”

    The Myanmar ministry of hotel & Tourism also announced that it’s possible again to apply for permits to travel overland from Inle Lake to Keng Tung over highway No 4 which has been called one of the most scenic drives in Myanmar and opens up possibilities for overland road trips to Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and China. The area is offering stunning nature and traditional tribes that have come across few western tourists.

    The Bago Yoma forests, home to many Myanmar elephants that are in danger of being poached for their skin, has opened the Bago Yoma Eco Resort in an effort to open the area up for tourism. In Southern Rakhine state, the Arakan Nature Lodge has started operating an eco-lodge right on the pristine Zikhone village beach, making it an excellent opportunity to consider this part of Southern Rakhine state as a viable new tourist destination.

    The opening of this new tourist attraction comes at a time when the number of tourists arriving at Yangon airport (from January – November 2017) still shows a 7 percent increase compared to the same period in 2016. The numbers, released on 11 December by the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism show that the number of tourists — especially Asian tourists — increased by a double-digit percentage from Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam. The number of tourists from Western Europe, North America and Australia and New Zealand show a slight decrease of 8-9 percent for tourist arrivals at Yangon International Airport. Not visiting Myanmar is “a big loss for those thousands of people working in tourism in Myanmar who have nothing to do with the issue in Northern Rakhine State,” as May Myat Mon Win, Myanmar Tourism Marketing Chairperson said earlier this year.

    Further recent and future openings in Myanmar include the Pan Pacific Hotel that opened its doors a few weeks ago and the upcoming Hilton Mandalay and Pullman Yangon which are planned for the first quarter of 2018.

    The U.S. government was probably not thinking of the sweet romance of chocolate on Feb. 14, 1912 when it declared Arizona “The Valentine State.” Verde Canyon Railroad, however, can’t help but think of chocolate! The scenic railroad’s popular Chocolate Lovers’ Special, now in its 15th year, celebrates Valentine’s Day in a most rare and wild way.

    In February, Verde Canyon Railroad fills the senses with love through the hypnotic rhythm of the rails, enchanting canyon views, glimpses of soaring eagles and quality time with someone dear. And, savoring the sweet, sumptuous chocolate served on Valentine’s Day creates a feeling of ecstasy not unlike the sensation of falling in love. The confectionary celebration fills the first-class cars with the intoxicating scent and flavor of chocolate via delicious pastries, cakes, and luscious hand-dipped delicacies. A free-flowing chocolate fountain is surrounded by marshmallows, fresh fruit, and pretzels for dipping. “Toast with specialty cocktails and dunk with flavored-coffees,” says Teresa Propeck, vice president of marketing. “Sweethearts can share nibbles of delectable desserts while enjoying the tastiest treat of all: the decadent, wild winter scenery of the Verde Canyon!”

  • Famous Smoke Shop Launches ‘Beginner’s Guide to Cigar Smoking’

    Famous Smoke Shop Launches ‘Beginner’s Guide to Cigar Smoking’

    [ad_1]

    Press Release



    updated: Nov 28, 2017

    New cigar smokers are now only a click away from learning everything they need to know about the experience of smoking premium handmade cigars thanks to the “Beginner’s Guide to Cigar Smoking,” a new section to their website developed by Famous Smoke Shop, the nation’s #1 discount retailer of premium cigars online. As they did with their Pairing Guides for Beer and Whiskey, Famous created the educational section to help those new to cigars acquire the essential knowledge for understanding what goes into creating premium cigars, as well as helping them get more enjoyment from them.

    “Cigar smoking starts as a hobby for some smokers, but often turns into a passion,” said Famous Smoke Shop’s Cory Grover, who helped oversee the project. “Once that happens, they want to learn as much as possible.”

    We wanted to make it as easy as possible for cigar smokers to find the answers to their questions. Whether it’s learning the difference between a Torpedo and a Pyramid, or how to properly cut, light or smoke your cigar, it’s all in there.

    John Pullo, Famous Smoke Shop Content Marketing Manager

    And there is plenty to learn. From how cigar tobacco is grown, to the handmade production methods, to smoking the finished cigar, the Beginner’s Guide to Cigar Smoking covers the bases in great detail. Through the use of text, infographics, photos and how-to videos, cigar smokers will get an in-depth look at cutting and lighting cigars, cigar terminology, shapes and sizes, choosing the right cigar, and much more in this valuable resource that will benefit all cigar enthusiasts.

    Because keeping cigars fresh is so essential to smoking premium cigars, there is a section on cigar storage where readers will learn about the different types of cigar humidors, temperature & humidity, plus the various humidification devices, and which of them are best for their particular storage unit.

    The Guide also points out the key differences between traditionally-blended cigars and cigars that are flavored or infused, as well as the proper method for storing flavored cigars.

    There’s even a fun, interactive cigar smoking quiz that will help cigar smokers discover what type of cigar smoker they are.

    The Beginner’s Guide to Cigar Smoking also takes the cigar smoking experience to the next level with a section on how to pair cigars with a variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

    Until now, few, if any, online resources have covered such a wide range of topics dedicated to introducing new cigars smokers to the enjoyment of premium hand-rolled cigars and the unique social culture that goes with it. Even seasoned cigar smokers will find things in the Guide to further their appreciation and enlightenment of the leaf.

    “We wanted the Guide to be like having a virtual tobacconist on-demand,” said Famous Content Marketing Manager, John Pullo. “We wanted to make it as easy as possible for cigar smokers to find the answers to their questions. Whether it’s learning the difference between a Torpedo and a Pyramid, how to get rid of cigar smoke odor, to whether or not to remove the band from your cigar before you light it, it’s all in there.”

    Lurento Expands Luxury and Sports Car Rental Business to Dubai, Abu Dhabi

    [ad_1]

    Press Release



    updated: Nov 23, 2017

    ​​​​​​​Premium car rental marketplace, Lurento, has announced the launch of its service in the United Arab Emirates. Customers can now rent luxury and sports cars in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

    “Dubai is a leading location for luxury travelers and sports car enthusiasts alike. Our customers will have the opportunity to choose from a lot of models this holiday season, along with the best deals. In addition to top European brands such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Mercedes and BMW, Lurento now offers Cadillac, GMC, Lincoln and other premium cars from US brands,” says Milan Krstanovic, Partner Relations Manager.

    Dubai is a leading location for luxury travelers and sports car enthusiasts alike. Our customers will have the opportunity to choose from a lot of models this holiday season, along with the best deals. In addition to top European brands such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Mercedes and BMW, Lurento now offers Cadillac, GMC, Lincoln and other premium cars from US brands.

    Milan Krstanovic, Lurento Partner Relations Manager

    As the largest luxury car rental service, Lurento offers an unparalleled selection of premium cars, luxury cars, sports cars, and supercars. Launched in 2016, Lurento has quickly increased its European operation, and is now based in 80 cities across the continent. The launch into the United Arab Emirates marks the next chapter in the firm’s exciting and ambitious expansion strategy, and is the company’s first venture outside Europe.

    “While the premium and luxury car segment is covered by traditional car rental operators, the offering is more fragmented than the broader sector with a significant number of smaller, independent operators. This creates friction in the market, as independent operators often lack visibility to inbound travelers. Potential clients may, on the other hand, be wary of dealing with unfamiliar providers. Lurento bridges this gap through offering a neutral venue for operators and clients to interact, increasing visibility for small providers covering this niche segment while facilitating the process and creating trust for customers to rent their dream cars or specific, premium models,” says Nicolay Nedrelid, Founder & Corporate Advisor at Nedrelid Corporate Advisory, an independent consulting boutique focused on the car rental industry.

    As two of the world’s most popular travel destinations, Dubai and Abu Dhabi offer a wide range of activities for the discerning traveler, with the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix just one of the many highlights pulling in sports car fans from around the globe.

    “With such strong supply and a lot of requests from our clients, we’ve decided to accept partner companies and make their inventory available for customers worldwide. It will also serve as sandbox for a number of features we’ll test to improve our service and provide the perfect rental experience for our customers,” says Mihailo Dhoric, CEO.

    The next five years are anticipated to be a period of fast growth in the region too, with the government announcing projects such as The Dubai Marina development to further add to the region’s tourism credentials. While VAT will be introduced in 2018 at a rate of 5 percent, it is not expected to have a significant impact on the car rental sector.

    About Lurento

    Europe’s leading marketplace for luxury and sports car rental redefines the car rental experience for companies, clients and fast cars enthusiasts. Powered by technology, data and artificial intelligence, Lurento has lowered the entry cost into the luxury car rental market, making prestigious cars available to a wider audience. Lurento helps local car rental companies utilize unused inventory, prevent theft and fraud and get access to clients worldwide.

  • Letty Annett to Attend AFIDE 2017 as Ambassador of Friendship

    Letty Annett to Attend AFIDE 2017 as Ambassador of Friendship

    [ad_1]

    Press Release



    updated: Nov 20, 2017

    Letty Annett, President of Letty’s Cuba Travel and Tours, is participating in the 7th International Convention of Physical Activity and Sports (AFIDE), covering the main topic of Sports and Human Development as an Ambassador of Friendship.

    The conference, which takes place between Nov. 20–24, 2017, at the Center for Conferences in Havana, Cuba, is a unique opportunity for sports professionals from both the United States and Cuba to meet and discuss future collaborative sports projects.

    Let the regulations end, let the friendship grow!

    Letty Annett, President

    “We must break down the barriers that stand between America and Cuba with love, humanity, and respect – just like we do the rest of the world. Not with a failed embargo, no matter what Washington believes presently,” said Letty from her offices at Letty’s Cuba Travel and Tours in Weston, Florida.

    “My personal dream is to host consistent, friendly events between Cuba and the United States without having to worry about politics and unnecessary red tape. My travel agency helps Americans to explore Cuba’s rich culture and history through Cuba trips, while my Youth Baseball Friendship Cup celebrates our sporting links. Let the regulations end, let the friendship grow!”

    Joining Letty at AFIDE 2017 to speak is a team of experts, including Donna Cohen, Sports & Entertainment Legal Counsel to nonprofit organizations; Peter Caliendo, a former USA baseball national team coach and President of Caliendo Sports International; Mark Littell, former professional baseball pitcher with Kansas City Royals and St. Louis Cardinals; and William Franciscus, Jr., a scout, player agent, and coach for GBL Independent League.

    Letty herself is no stranger to fostering cross-cultural ties. Born in Cuba, her passion is to bring the two nations closer together through meaningful travel experiences as well as through baseball. Letty started the Youth Baseball Friendship Cup as an annual baseball tournament for kids each summer.

    Cuba is just 40 minutes from Miami by plane, and as a Cuban-American who emigrated to the United States 37 years ago during the Mariel Boat Lift, she understands the true price of the embargo for Cuba. Upon returning for the first time in 32 years in 2012, she opened Letty’s Cuba Travel and Tours and became a Friendship Ambassador.

    Now, she promotes Cuba people-to-people group tours and individual support for the Cuban people visits.

    Despite Washington’s change in policy, human relations between Cubans and Americans continue to flourish. — not just in sports with events such as the Youth Baseball Friendship Club, but also in music, as the Minnesota Orchestra opened its inaugural Cuban-American Youth Orchestra Academy to four young students from the island nation of just 11 million.

    Echoing the sentiments of Letty and so many other Cubans and Americans who want to see the ties of friendship strengthened between the two nations, one of the young Cuban musicians, Adriel Davi Rodriguez Laza, said, “I believe that music is like an ambassador between the two nations. Personal interests aren’t put first; it’s just the music.”

    For Letty Annett and others engaged in building friendship between Cuba and America through travel, cultural ties, and sporting events such as baseball tournaments, these words could not ring truer.

    SignalBooster.com Banishes Weak Cell Signal With New Signal Booster

    [ad_1]

    Touted as the Ultimate Tech Solution for Bad Cell Phone Reception in Cars, Trucks, RVs.

    Press Release



    updated: Nov 16, 2017

    A new and improved cell phone signal booster for vehicles brings enhanced cellular performance for drivers, passengers, fleets, and anybody who needs uninterrupted calling and access to mobile data on the road. The recently released Fusion2Go 2.0 is the top-performing OTR car & truck 3G & 4G LTE signal booster on the market. It replaces original Fusion2Go.

    Both cellular boosters support 3G, 4G, and LTE signals for AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular, and all other North American carriers. Both are powered through a standard 12V DC vehicle power adapter. Both offer easy plug and play installation. However, there are a few significant differences between the two.

    As compared to the Fusion2Go, the Fusion2Go 2.0 offers:

        •    Improved Talk, Text, 3G, and 4G LTE Internet for all cell carrier phones than version 1.0.

        •    Increased uplink power – average 21.2 dBm per band compared to 17.9 dBm in version 1.0).

        •    Auto adjusting gain automatically optimizes gain to ensure the booster is always operating at max performance – no manual adjustment option knobs like in version 1.0

        •    4″ low profile exterior antenna versus standard 12″ antenna in version 1.0. The shorter antenna also has a strong and wide magnet base keeping it securely attached to your vehicle’s roof despite high winds and extreme weather.

    Far Reaching Coverage with Consistent Clear Signal.

    The booster ensures seamless connectivity in remote areas for multiple cellular users by providing the maximum power and gain that can be achieved with a vehicle signal booster.

    How It Works.

    The signal from the cell tower is captured by the roof-mount antenna and is then boosted and re-broadcast to all mobile devices inside the vehicle. Outgoing signal is amplified before being sent back to the cell tower. An alternate RV cellular signal booster version is also available for recreational vehicles.

    updated: Nov 10, 2017

    Highway Toll Administration LLC (“HTA”) announced today the opening of its lab for innovation and entrepreneurship with the goal of spurring innovative ventures across the tolling and violation management industry. In recognition that great ideas lie with subject matter experts who may not have the resources to commercialize a good idea, HTA intends to solicit and incubate new products and services with passionate individuals or organizations who see the benefit of partnership with HTA.

    “For HTA as well as for the tolling industry, the importance of innovation cannot be overstated,” said HTA’s Chief Executive Officer David Centner. “For the first time, HTA is looking outside its walls by soliciting disruptive technology and service-based ideas from subject matter experts within the tolling industry.” HTA will fund, incubate and support these initiatives including developing go-to-market strategies that accelerate the development and introduction of new ideas and solutions.

    Having personally started HTA from my attic 15 years ago, we have a unique understanding of the process of entrepreneurship, how to refine and nurture the entrepreneur and the idea, and overcoming obstacles along the way.

    David Centner, Founder & CEO

    HTA, the longtime leader in providing toll management services for fleets, has a successful history utilizing innovation toward driving its own strategic objectives. The Innovation Lab is created on the premise that good ideas can come from anywhere, not only from within HTA, but also industry experts. “HTA will become a center for entrepreneurship by leveraging its deep experience and partnerships in fleet management and tolling,” added Jon Routledge, HTA’s President. “Our goal is to drive innovation by connecting entrepreneurial ideas with the people and resources necessary to bring them to market.”

    Like the very enterprises it will incubate, HTA similarly has its own traditional entrepreneurial origins. “Having personally started HTA from my attic 15 years ago, we have a unique understanding of the process of entrepreneurship, how to refine and nurture the entrepreneur and the idea, and overcoming obstacles along the way,” said David Centner.

    HTA Innovation Lab is accepting ideas for consideration immediately. The Innovation Lab will be led by HTA’s senior leadership team as they shepherd ideas through HTA’s proprietary methodology designed to quickly ascertain a project’s commercial viability. Hardware, software, and services ideas will be the Lab’s initial areas of focus. The HTA Innovation Lab will be managed from its Jersey City, New Jersey facility.
