HANOI, 8 October 2026: Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi has unveiled a refreshed neo-classical Opera Wing, marking a new chapter in the hotel’s ongoing evolution over 125 Years.

“The Opera Wing has always captured the graceful neo-classical spirit of the Metropole. This refurbishment carefully preserves that character while introducing a brighter, warmer and more contemporary residential feel for today’s guests,” said Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi General Manager George Koumendakos.

The refurbishment breathes new life into the Opera Wing’s corridors, lift landings and accommodation across its Premium and Grand Premium Rooms and Prestige Suites.

While carefully preserving the wing’s neo-classical character and authentic timber finishes, the transformation introduces lighter palettes, refined fabrics, renewed furnishings and enhanced in-room comfort. New carpets, tailored curtains and refined details – including pearlescent mosaic bathroom finishes – create a calm, inviting experience defined by understated luxury.

Premium Rooms offer a contemporary feel in blue-green, grey and white. Wood furnishings have been refurbished and floors revarnished and polished, while lounge armchairs have been re-upholstered. 

Grand Premium Rooms present a brighter, warmer take on neo-classical elegance through a silver-and-adobe palette. Exquisite hand-tufted carpets, refined curtains and polished wood floors create a softer, more luminous atmosphere. Bathrooms feature walk-in shower stalls and polished marble surfaces.

Prestige Suites deliver a renewed sense of warmth, luxury and familiarity. The room now offers enhanced comfort with a new sofa. Bathrooms feature pearlescent mosaic and polished marble floors and walls.

Corridors and lift landings provide a contemporary welcome defined by symmetry and detail. Refreshed carpets, colours and furnishings bring a more modern feel to the Opera Wing. Floors 1-4 feature new wallpaper, painted doors and ceilings, and newly designed hand-tufted carpets; Club Floors 5-7 have new hand-tufted carpets and mint-green doors against white corridors. Lift landings are refreshed with new sofas, floor lamps, side tables and lift-car door finishes.

IATA outlines safety priorities

ISTANBUL, 8 October 2026: The International Air Transport Association (IATA) highlights the need better to integrate people, technology, and global standards to deliver the next advances in aviation safety.

“Aviation is safer today than it was a decade ago. In that timeframe, fatal accident rates have improved from one accident per 3.5 million flights to one per 5.6 million flights,” said IATA’s Director of Safety Mark Searle, during the opening session of the IATA World Safety and Operations Conference 2026 in Istanbul.

WSOC 2026 Speech – Mark Searle, IATA Director of Safety

“But 2025 still saw the loss of 394 lives in aviation accidents. Every fatality strengthens our resolve to do better. The next advance in safety will come from people, technology, and standards working together better as one resilient system.”

People: Fostering a strong aviation safety culture

Three priorities were identified to sustain and strengthen aviation’s safety performance as a new generation of aviation professionals brought up in the digital age rises in the workforce:

Structured knowledge transfer: Preserving decades of operational expertise through structured mentoring, training and succession planning.

Combining experience with new capabilities: Bringing together the operational knowledge of experienced professionals with the digital skills and artificial intelligence (AI) fluency of a new generation.

Protecting safety culture: Maintaining an environment in which people can report hazards, errors and near misses without fear, enabling the industry to learn, improve and prevent future incidents.

“We have spent decades building something genuinely rare: a positive safety culture in which people report their own errors, and mistakes become opportunities for everyone to learn from. That culture was nurtured deliberately over many years, and it is critical that, as one generation moves on, the next takes over the mantle and builds on what was done before,” said Searle.

Technology: Innovation must strengthen safety

The adoption of new technologies, including AI, should be assessed against three key tests:

Does it help safety professionals understand what is happening around them?

Does it support better decision-making?

Can the operation remain safe if the technology is unavailable or compromised?

“Technology can give us critical information that helps us identify risk earlier, understand it more clearly, and take action before an incident becomes an accident. But technology alone is never enough. The aviation system must remain resilient when technology is unavailable, degraded, or provides misleading information. The rise in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) interference is a reminder that technology must always be supported by redundancy, procedures, training, and human judgment,” said Searle.

Standards: Consistent Implementation drives safety

The strong safety performance of airlines on the IOSA registry demonstrates the value of common global standards backed by effective oversight. Despite this positive example, today many of aviation’s biggest safety challenges stem from inconsistent implementation and oversight, rather than a lack of global standards.

“The next step change in safety will not come from writing more standards. It will come from making sure the standards we already have are understood, implemented and overseen consistently, everywhere,” said Searle.

IATA identified three actions to strengthen global standards

Improve implementation and oversight by focusing limited resources on the highest-risk areas and ensuring standards are applied consistently across the aviation system.

Strengthen state compliance with international obligations, particularly on conflict zone risk information and accident reporting.

Keep standards relevant by simplifying, modernising and updating requirements to reflect changes in technology, operations and the regulatory environment.

“People, technology, and standards must reinforce one another. That’s true whether we are addressing runway safety, GNSS interference, conflict zones or accident investigations. When one of these pillars is weak, the resilience of the entire system is reduced,” said Searle.

On 17 November, CEB will operate three weekly flights between Cebu and Shanghai, China, scheduled on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, making it the only local airline to offer direct flights between the two cities. 

CEB will also launch direct flights between Cebu and Nagoya, Japan, four times weekly beginning 19 November with flights every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday. 

Nagoya, the largest city in central Japan, is the third destination in Japan served directly from Cebu via CEB, after Tokyo-Narita and Osaka. CEB is also the only airline that offers direct flights between Cebu and Nagoya.

On 19 November, CEB is relaunching its direct flights between Clark and Hanoi, operating three times weekly — every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. CEB is the only airline to offer direct flights between Clark and Vietnam, making it easier for travellers from Central Luzon and nearby areas to fly directly to Hanoi without transiting through Manila.

Gilded barges on the River of Kings

By

BANGKOK, 8 October 2026: Bangkok’s Royal Barge Procession returns on 6 November 2026, with 52 ceremonial barges sailing along the Chao Phraya River to Wat Arun. 

Travellers can discover this centuries-old tradition, its connection to the Royal Kathin ceremony, October rehearsals, and riverside viewing locations for this rare celebration of Thai culture, craftsmanship, and royal heritage.

Photo credit: TAT. Few sights in Southeast Asia match the moment the Chao Phraya River is cleared of ferries and longtails, and 52 gilded barges glide into view.

Tradition centuries in the making

Thailand’s royal water processions date back to the Ayutthaya kingdom, when the river was the main road, and the monarch’s barge was a statement of power. Foreign envoys recorded the ceremonial fleets with awe, and the tradition passed to Bangkok after its founding in 1782. The great barges carved in this era became floating works of art, and some are still in use.

Each barge is carved from timber and covered in gold leaf, glass mosaic, and lacquer. They carry mythological names and prows shaped like Hindu-Buddhist creatures. The most famous is the Suphannahong, with a swan-like golden bow, which serves as the king’s vessel. The Narai Song Suban, built during King Bhumibol’s reign, is the only barge from his era. Wartime bombing and decades of decay left the fleet in poor condition, but it was restored, and the ceremonies were revived in the mid-twentieth century. Today the barges are kept at the National Museum of Royal Barges in Bangkok Noi.

Why it matters

The procession is a rare pageant, held only for significant occasions. It is tied to the Royal Kathin ceremony, when the monarch presents robes to Buddhist monks at the end of Buddhist Lent. The ceremony joins two pillars of Thai identity: monarchy and Buddhism.

This year’s procession is for the Royal Kathin Ceremony at Wat Arun Ratchawararam, as part of celebrations for Queen Suthida’s 48th birthday anniversary. Fifty-two barges will be manned by 2,200 Royal Thai Navy personnel, in five columns and three lines, forming a procession about 1,280 meters long and 90 meters wide. 

When and where

The main procession is on Friday, 6 November 2026. It departs from Wasukri Pier and travels past Phra Sumen Fort, Somdet Phra Pinklao Bridge, Siriraj Hospital, the Grand Palace and the Royal Thai Navy Auditorium before reaching Wat Arun Ratchawararam. It is expected to start in the afternoon, with viewing areas opening from around 3 p.m., so aim to arrive well before then.

Tickets and rehearsals

The Royal Thai Navy offered free tickets for designated riverside areas, but bookings closed on 16 September, with tickets to be collected in person by the end of September. That window has now closed. 

Rehearsals are a good alternative. Twelve rehearsals are scheduled until 28 October. You can watch the smaller sessions on 15 October from the riverbanks without a ticket. Full-dress rehearsals are scheduled for 21 and 28 October.

Best vantage points

Official viewing areas line both banks, so check your ticket or the latest announcements for access. Some popular vantage points, from north to south along the Chao Phraya embankments:

Rama VIII Bridge area: This is the northern end of the public viewing stretch, with open views of the fleet in formation, which suits photographers.

Phra Sumen Fort and Santichaiprakan Park: This riverside park in the old town is a pleasant place to settle in early, with the formation passing near its best.

Somdet Phra Pinklao Bridge: The fleet passes beneath it, and the elevated angle shows off the full column. Expect crowds.

Tha Chang and the Grand Palace side: Here the barges pass the palace walls. It is the most atmospheric stretch, and the most crowded.

Tha Tien and Wat Pho: A good place to watch as the fleet nears the finale, with Wat Arun directly across the water.

Wat Arun riverbank: This is the ceremonial destination, offering a dramatic backdrop at the end of the route, though access is likely to be restricted.

Riverside restaurants and hotel terraces near Wat Arun and the Grand Palace tend to fill quickly, so book early if you want a table with a view.

Vietnam pairs golf and seasonal menus

DANANG, 7 October 2026: Vietnam Golf Coast clubs are whetting the appetites of visiting golfers this autumn, pairing a round of golf with fresh culinary experiences as Central Vietnam continues to strengthen its appeal both on and off the course.

Leading the charge is Montgomerie Links, which is preparing to unveil The 19th Coffee & Beer, a completely refreshed dining destination overlooking the driving range and first tee. The new concept will combine contemporary design with indoor seating and a spacious outdoor terrace, providing an inviting setting for golfers before or after their round.

The new 19th Coffee & Beer at Montgomerie Links will offer relaxed dining overlooking the driving range and first tee.

The menu will straddle East and West, combining contemporary Western dishes with authentic Vietnamese flavours and locally sourced ingredients. The opening complements Birdies Restaurant, overlooking the 18th green, as Montgomerie Links continues to develop the experience surrounding its championship layout.

“Great golf is still at the heart of everything we do, but the experience doesn’t begin and end on the course,” said Montgomerie Links Club Manager Le Vo Hoang Van. “The 19th gives golfers somewhere they can settle in before a round or linger afterwards, with good food, a relaxed atmosphere and views that keep them connected to the course.”

Ba Na Hills Golf Club is also sharpening its culinary offering for September and October with a new clubhouse menu mixing Vietnamese and international favourites. New signatures include beef short-rib phở, truffle creamy rigatoni with crispy chicken, Korean sundubu jjigae and crispy Vietnamese pancakes.

Seasonal specials further reflect the diversity of visitors to Central Vietnam, ranging from Phu Quoc-style bún quậy (seafood noodle soup) and Hoi An-inspired herbal tea to Korean kimchi jjigae. Mooncakes and Korean songpyeon will mark the autumn festival season, while new cocktails add another reason to linger at the clubhouse after golf.

“Food has become an increasingly important part of the golf experience in Central Vietnam,” said Ba Na Hills Golf Club General Manager Andrew McGregor. “Our golfers come from across Asia and around the world, so we want the clubhouse to reflect that diversity while retaining a strong sense of place through Vietnamese dishes and ingredients.”

The culinary activity coincides with a busy period on the fairways. Ba Na Hills will host the IMG Trophy 2026, bringing another major competitive occasion to the Luke Donald-designed course.

Beyond the clubs, food is an increasingly compelling part of Central Vietnam’s appeal. Danang’s dining scene spans local seafood and street-food favourites to restaurants recognised by the MICHELIN Guide. Meanwhile, nearby Hoi An remains one of Vietnam’s great culinary destinations, renowned for specialities such as cao lầu and cơm gà.

For visiting golfers, the combination adds another dimension to a region already celebrated for its championship courses, beaches, luxury resorts and UNESCO-listed heritage.

“Central Vietnam has always offered much more than golf” Van added. “The quality and variety of dining is another part of what makes the destination so rewarding. A great round followed by a memorable meal is a combination that’s difficult to beat.”
