Greetings from Great Exuma. This is my favorite island in the Bahamas and I’m happy to be here celebrating my mother-in-law’s 75th birthday this weekend along with my husband. This week in travel news saw United unveil its new Polaris® seats along with a protest staged at the event, the Park Hyatt is finally taking reservations in Johannesburg, BARK Air is a year old, and I review two hotels. I think this is the first week with no lounge news, but we’ll change that next week.
