Elite Traveler November-December 2015

elite traveler NOV/DEC 2015 ISSUE 6 23

WELCOME THE PRIVATE JET LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE

It’s hard to believe that the holiday season is already here. It seems like just the other day we were peeling the wrappers off our new- lookmagazine. Tomark the season, we’ve rounded up some inspirational gifts for you (and your friends and family). Now is a great time to plan a winter vacation and in this issue we have all sorts of suggestions, from a detailed look at the delights of Paris (always magical at this time of year), to ideas on how to get the most from the short but scintillating party scene in Uruguay. For those who prefer to vacation somewhere a little less populated, we also offer a round-up of 10 of the best desert escapes. And at this time of year, it would be remiss not to highlight a top skiing destination, so the irrepressible Minty Clinch explores the thrills of the resorts at Jackson Hole in Wyoming. There’s also our regular look at the world’s top suites, focused this issue on Miami. Plus we meet designer and entrepreneur Viscount Linley. We’re already busy planning for 2016, and we always like to hear your ideas or thoughts on places to visit, so email us at editorial@elitetraveler.com

Elite Traveler tip One signature of the Elite Traveler editorial has been our tireless pursuit of the inside intelligence that makes life easier. Watch out for this symbol throughout.
