I had the fortune of traveling on Emirates many years ago and can attest to their superb service. I am glad they are expanding into enhancing the experience for disabled travelers too.

I have been reading a lot about Sedona, Arizona recently. I had never heard of the vortex phenomenon and was very interested! That is, until there was mention of a UFO Tour, and then I’m like 😅 I only want the peaceful and healing energy not aliens. Still intrigued though
