Baja California

NEW YORK – October 29, 2026 -- National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions has released the final batch of voyages in its 2028–29 deployment. It includes eight Galápagos itineraries, a new 15-day Costa Rica and Panama expedition, and journeys through the Amazon, Baja California, Egypt and Peru.

The collection follows a first set of 2028–29 voyages announced in August. Chief Expedition Officer Trey Byus said the aim is to give guests "more depth, more access and more opportunities to explore actively."

Galápagos itineraries run from 7 to 17 days on four ships

Eight itineraries sail aboard National Geographic Endeavour II, National Geographic Islander II, National Geographic Gemini and National Geographic Delfina. Back-to-back packaged sailings allow longer stays in the archipelago.

Cypress, Calif. – October 15, 2026 -- Albany Park has relaunched as a sofa brand that builds every sofa to order in its own factory and ships it in seven days, with the delivery window shown by ZIP code before the customer orders.

The factory is in El Florido, Baja California, Mexico. Albany Park has been owned by furniture manufacturer Exemplis since 2022.

Kova offers two looks and three comfort levels

The best-selling Kova is a modular sofa that comes in two styles: Kova Box, the tailored look, and Kova Pillow, the relaxed one. Every Kova is built in the customer's choice of soft, medium, or firm comfort.

If the comfort isn't right, a white-glove technician will exchange the cushions in the customer's home at no cost. The offer covers one free exchange within 60 days of delivery. The comfort choice and the exchange are available on Kova now and are coming to the brand's Barton and Lido collections.
