Avenza Maps Keep Families Connected

We’ve come a long way from the days when families had to rely on walky-talkies to keep track of each other on the ski slopes or hiking trails. Yes, resorts and national parks offer paper trail maps, but they can easily get lost, torn or are simply awkward to decipher, especially if you’re wearing bulky gloves or battling a headwind. And while using the map feature on your smartphone works up to a point, they may not offer the level of detail you’re looking for to be accessible in the wilderness.

United Continues Its Global Expansion

United Airlines keeps soaring to new heights, recently announcing another expansion of its leading global route network. The airline added new non-stop flights between Newark (EWR) and Marrakesh (RAK), Morocco; Tokyo (NRT) and Cebu (CEB), Philippines; and Houston (IAH) and Medellin (MDE), Colombia. That’s not all: United also plans to increase flights to popular worldwide destinations including Hong Kong (HKG); Seoul (INC), South Korea; and Porto (OPO), Portugal. Following the recent agreement to increase flights between the U.S. and Chinese governments, the airline now adds four weekly flights from Los Angeles (LAX) to Shanghai (PVG).
