Cruise & Hotel Deals: Hilton’s SLH partnership adds and removes properties for August 2026, including Norway’s Savoy 1918, while cruise value is under pressure as gratuities rise and inclusions shrink. Late-Summer Travel Shift: Heatwaves and wildfires are driving “coolcations” toward the Nordics and Baltics, with France’s wildfire evacuations a stark warning for Mediterranean holiday plans.
