Porthole Cruise and Travel, June 2024
The Editor-in-Chief Awards are like my personal Oscars, but instead of celebrating movie magic, I’m highlighting the things you might not think about when planning a vacation.
This year, I’ve organized them with travel planning in mind: who to follow for the best travel advice, where to eat on the road or at sea, the best things to pack before you go (or before you come home), and of course the best places to go and best ways to get there.
Voting opens soon for our Readers’ Choice Awards … but before you start picking your favorites, take a moment to appreciate some of mine.
Maybe they’ll help make your next trip the best one yet!
