October, shockingly, has come and gone. It should not come as a shock; it occurs yearly. However one thing about realizing it is already November — and almost the tip of the 12 months — is all the time jarring. Now could be the time to lock in those holiday plans, ensure you’re utilizing shopping portals to earn points and miles whereas searching for presents and possibly even reserving a backup resort as your “exit plan” in case your loved ones begins family-ing too onerous.
However although the crisp November air is right here, there’s nonetheless time to look again at what occurred in October: Hilton launched its 25th brand, a brand new way of life assortment; a shocking, new JW Marriott opened in Tokyo (and I am unable to wait to go to in December!); and the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal, a TPG favourite, finally finished a multiyear remodel.
