EAT
Geist
Danish cuisine having a moment, and if you can’t decide where to eat, we suggest Geist, where you’ll find dishes like potato mash with brown stone crab and salted butter. For dessert, try the salted wasabi cream toffee, which sounds strange, but is absolutely amazing.

Why you don’t want to travel through this NYC airport
Newark Liberty International Airport

Travelers may want to avoid connecting through Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), as it continues facing delays that began last week. On Sunday, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) implemented a Ground Delay Program, with flights delayed an average of four hours that evening, as noted by an FAA advisory. A combination of issues led to the delays, including technology malfunctions, according to Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy; a runway closing for rehabilitation work; the air traffic controller shortage across the country; and last week’s walk-off by air traffic controllers in Newark, according to United CEO Scott Kirby.

Newark Airport is a major East Coast hub

Climbing Mount Everest just got harder — and possibly safer
Climbing Everest? Here are some new rules for the 2025 season
Mount Everest

Climbing Mount Everest is a bucket-list destination for many ambitious climbers around the world. However, it's also one of the most dangerous. 2023 saw 22 tragic deaths according to the Himalayan Database, marking it the most deadly year on record. Due to this, the Nepali government is implementing several new rules to reduce the risk of loss of life. These new rules were outlined in the Integrated Tourism Bill from Nepal's upper house of Parliament. Here's what you need to know:

In 2023, many of the deaths were linked to altitude sickness or heart attacks in unprepared hikers. For this reason, climbers must now provide a certificate of health 30 days before their expeditions. Climbers must also show proof of having summited at least one peak over 7,000 meters (22,965 feet) in Nepal before applying for an Everest Permit. This permit is valid for two years but will now cost $15,000 instead of $11,000 per person, and will not be transferable or refundable.
