EDITOR’S MESSAGE

Welcome, Haute Dubai Readers!

Summer is upon us and there’s nothing like the summer’s heat to start you thinking: vacation. Whether it’s for personal relaxation, curiosity or to simply re-calibrate those energy levels, it isn’t too late to consider trotting off for that late getaway.

In this travel dedicated issue, we’ve decided to swap our staple Destination Guide in favor of something far more enticing – get the scoop of the world’s most luxurious hotel suites on page (34). If the aroma of spices and coconut is more up your street, then check out the intoxicating private Maldivian paradise of an island on page (28).

The highlight of this issue is, literally, out of this planet! Space tourism has finally arrived, and by the end of the year you’ll be able to book your trip to low earth orbit. Our article on page (16) has the low down on these star-studded opportunities.

To bring you up to speed on the luxury travel market we, interviewed Liam Wholey, the CEO of The Travel Attaché and an eminent figure in the luxury industry. Liam shares with us his views on the latest trends in the luxury travel industry on page (14).

Haute Dubai readers are no strangers to all things luxury. In Style, we’ve chosen the most quintessential products, from luggage to eyewear, to complement your vacation and bring out the stylish jetsetter in you.

Our hope is you will let us know if your travels lived up to expectations and send us your thoughts if we hit the mark or not. We would be elated to hear your ideas on how we can help fulfill your travel dreams and aspirations – where to go, how to get there and what to do at your best-loved destinations.

Bon Voyage!
