India's preferred airline, IndiGo, has embarked on a new journey, connecting Delhi and Baku, the vibrant capital of Azerbaijan. Services starting from August 11, 2023, this new route offers a splendid opportunity for travelers looking for enriching experiences and cultural immersion.
With Baku becoming the 30th international destination and 108th overall destination in the IndiGo network, this flight holds significance beyond convenience. As the sole Indian carrier operating direct flights between the two cities, IndiGo is reinforcing its commitment to expand connectivity.
Baku is a city that combines history and modernity, which offers travelers a captivating experience. From bustling markets to a thriving arts scene and delectable cuisine, Baku has it all. Monuments like the Flame Towers and the historic Maiden Tower narrate the story of its rich heritage. The Palace of the Shirvanshahs, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of medieval Azerbaijan. Beyond being an economic powerhouse known as the 'Black Gold Capital,' due to its oil and gas industry, Baku's significance spans cultural treasures and economic growth.
This new flight is more than a connection; it's a bond between India and Azerbaijan. Both nations share a growing bilateral relationship, strengthened by this improved connectivity. The exchange of expertise, technology, and trade, particularly in the oil sector, holds the promise of mutual growth. As India diversifies its energy sources, the link to Azerbaijan gains strategic importance.
Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales at IndiGo, shared his enthusiasm for this endeavor. He noted, "We are delighted to introduce our new direct flights connecting Delhi and Baku, the capital and commercial hub of Azerbaijan. This is the 30th International destination in the 108 cities in the IndiGo network and has been driven by the increasing demand for travel from India. Moreover, as a popular destination known for its thrilling F1 city track and modernity, Baku promises to offer a captivating experience, while also serving as a gateway for travelers from Azerbaijan to explore India's rich culture & heritage. IndiGo continues its commitment to providing affordable, on-time, courteous, and hassle-free travel experiences across an extensive network for our valued passengers."
IndiGo's commitment to expanding international connectivity continues to evolve. With Baku as its latest addition, the airline's network now spans diverse corners of the globe. This journey is driven by IndiGo's core values of affordable travel, on-time services, and a hassle-free experience.
As the airline paves the way for vibrant cultural exchanges and enhanced people-to-people interactions, the partnership between India and Azerbaijan takes flight. It's more than a new route; it's a channel for collaboration, progress, and shared prosperity. IndiGo's expansion signifies more than aviation—it's a bridge to exploration, understanding, and growth.

Anantara Hotels, the luxury brand by Minor Hotels, has made a striking debut in Vienna, Austria, by transforming the historic Palais Hansen into the city’s first urban luxury resort. With this, Anantara brings its signature blend of Thai-inspired hospitality and European grandeur to the heart of the Austrian capital.
Originally designed by Baron Theophil Edvard von Hansen, the neo-Renaissance palace has a legacy spanning over 150 years, having once served as both a residential complex and a public administration building. Following a meticulous renovation, the building now offers 152 guest rooms and suites, including a lavish 270m² Presidential Suite. Complete with seven French balconies, a piano for private concerts, and a wellness space with a marble bath, the suite can expand to a sprawling 408m² four-bedroom configuration upon request.
The hotel is equipped with modern luxury comforts while preserving the architectural charm of old Vienna. Guests can enjoy high ceilings, oversized windows, and triple-glazing for comfort and quiet. The property also includes the 800m² Anantara Spa, three elegant dining venues, eight versatile meeting spaces, an executive boardroom, a private reading room, and a ballroom for up to 265 guests — making it an attractive choice for both leisure and business travellers.
This marks another major step in Anantara’s European expansion, joining a portfolio of over 50 luxury properties across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Africa, and the Indian Ocean. Earlier this year, Minor Hotels also announced plans to develop a new Anantara resort in Egypt, further extending the brand’s reach in key international destinations.
With its Vienna debut, Anantara not only celebrates the preservation of heritage architecture but also sets a new benchmark for luxury hospitality in the city — where timeless elegance meets contemporary service.
In a playful twist on vacation planning, Marriott Bonvoy has introduced “Travel Roulette”, a digital experience designed to inject spontaneity into trip bookings—just as it celebrates a huge milestone: 1 million hotel rooms across the U.S.
Inspired by the viral “vacation roulette” trend on social media, the new initiative invites Marriott Bonvoy members to spin a virtual wheel at MarriottBonvoyRoulette.com for a chance to instantly win prizes, including stays at premium hotels and the grand prize of 1 million Marriott Bonvoy points plus a four-night stay at the newly opened Canal House of Georgetown.
Running from May 7 to May 26, this initiative brings excitement back into travel decisions, allowing travelers to discover destinations at random—fitting with Marriott’s recent survey that revealed 43% of Americans are open to booking unplanned or surprise getaways.
The campaign also highlights Marriott’s 1-millionth U.S. room, located in the Canal House of Georgetown, part of the fast-growing Tribute Portfolio. Nestled in historic Washington, D.C., this boutique property features design-rich accommodations, including specialty suites, townhomes, a library lounge, and a private courtyard.
Besides the grand prize, members may win Marriott Bonvoy points or complimentary two-night stays at select properties such as:
AC Hotel by Marriott Maui Wailea
ADERO Scottsdale Resort, Autograph Collection
JW Marriott Las Vegas
Moxy Downtown Los Angeles
W New York – Union Square, among others.
“Travel roulette embraces the excitement of the unexpected,” says Peggy Roe, EVP and Chief Customer Officer at Marriott International. “With over 30 brands and 10,000 destinations, we want to celebrate this milestone by giving travelers a fun new way to explore.”
With Marriott Bonvoy's growing portfolio, members can redeem points not just for hotel stays, but also for exclusive experiences via Marriott Bonvoy Moments, immersive local activities, or even luxury hotel products from Marriott Bonvoy Boutiques.
