World Travel News
The world is changing at a fast pace and new travel destinations are being added to the world tourism map every day. For a globetrotter who derives pleasure from traveling to different corners of this planet, it is a must that he or she keeps himself or herself updated with the latest in World Travel News. There is so much happening around the world that is slowly but steadily altering the face of world tourism and adding to the convenience of backpackers and travelers to embark on their global sojourn. The top stories about World Travel News inevitably deal with some of the newest and faster modes of transportation that are being developed to aid in the commutation of travelers.
The latest to join the bandwagon is the Super-speed train that has been unveiled in France by engineering giant Alstom. This train can travel at the speed of 360kph (224mph) and has engines placed under its carriages. As there is no locomotive at either end of the train, it can carry more passengers and will be able to cover a distance of 1,000km (600 miles) in just three hours.
Another major event that has taken place recently is the beginning of a new business-only transatlantic service by British Airways that will operate from London City Airport to New York. This aircraft has a maximum capacity of 32 passengers at a time and offers all the business-class cabin facilities including a fully flat seat.
The Forbes magazine has come out with a list of top ten dangerous destinations in the world that includes the countries of Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti, Pakistan, Sudan, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Lebanon and Palestinian Territories.
