In recent times, I’ve been writing a series about some of the world’s small luxury hotel groups, including Airelles, Aman, BVLGARI, Cheval Blanc, Oetker, Ritz-Carlton Reserve, etc. One brand that I haven’t covered much is One&Only Resorts. What I find interesting about One&Only Resorts is what a unique collection of properties the brand has. While I wouldn’t say the overall brand has a cult following, some of the individual properties are iconic, and have people who return year after year. In this post, I’d like to cover what makes the brand special, details about the individual hotels, and talk about the best ways to book.…

Air China Cargo plans to order up to ten Airbus A350F aircraft to enhance its fleet and help the company meet market demand. The freighter is expected to enter service by the end of 2027, with deliveries to Air China Cargo expected between 2029 and 2031.

Air China Cargo will be the sixth Asian operator to order the A350F. Airbus is currently assembling the first aircraft in Toulouse.

By Karl Sinclair Oct. 29, 2025, © Leeham News: The Boeing Company (BA) took another charge in the third quarter, to the tune of $4.9bn, on the struggling 777X program–which has yet to deliver a single aircraft to a customer. Boeing released its 3Q2025 results, following the positive sentiment surrounding the second-quarter results. Despite posting the first positive Free Cash Flow (FCF) since 2023, investors drove shares down nearly 5% by midday. Boeing’s CEO Kelly Ortberg placed the blame directly on Boeing’s doorstep when he said on the financial network CNBC Wednesday morning, “This is something (the 777X/737 Max certification)…

Virgin Australia has introduced the first brand-new aircraft to Western Australia’s charter market this century with the entry into service of its first Embraer E190-E2 aircraft ‘Coral Bay’ (VH-E2A). The aircraft completed its inaugural commercial flight (VA9217) operated by Virgin Australia Regional Airlines (VARA) from Perth to Boolgeeda on Monday.

The E190-E2 offers significant advantages over the Fokkers when operating to smaller airstrips…

NASA and Lockheed Martin Skunk Works have successfully flown the X-59 quiet supersonic research aircraft for the very first time after almost a decade of development.  The X-59, also known as X-59 QueSST, took off on October 28, 2025, from Skunk Works’ facility at US Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale, California.

In doing so, the X-59 aims to overcome one of…

Air India CEO Campbell Wilson spoke publicly for the first time Wednesday about the June crash of AI171, an incident that has the airline under increased scrutiny. On June 12, 2025, an Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner crashed just moments after takeoff from Ahmedabad, killing 260 people and becoming the deadliest airplane crash in ten years.

This jet has become a flagship for many global airlines, some of which use it exclusively to operate their long-haul premium cabins.
