Corrections log · v2026.1

Corrections

Material corrections to published pieces are logged here in public, with the original-vs-revised diff and a timestamp. Cosmetic corrections (typos, layout fixes, broken links) are silent.

How to file a correction

If you have spotted a factual error — a wrong opening date, an incorrect room count, a mispriced rate, a misattributed quote, a wrong specification on a yacht or aircraft, a wrong GM or chef name — write to corrections@luxurytravelstandard.com. Include the URL of the affected piece, the specific claim in dispute, and the basis of your correction (a property publication, a corporate filing, a registry entry, a published press release). The desk verifies, corrects in place with a note at the top of the article body, and logs the correction here.

What gets logged

• Material factual changes that affect a verdict, a Standard score, a published rate, a key date, or a named-entity attribution.
• Withdrawals — pieces removed from publication for reasons beyond cosmetic correction.
• Significant updates — substantive additions to a published piece (for example, an opening that was originally previewed has now opened, and the piece is updated with field-review observations).

The log

1. 2026-06-04 · correction · /reviews/the-lana-dubai-review/

   The Lana, Dubai — restaurant principals

   The review as originally published named a chef ("Martin Benn, formerly of Sepia") in the property's restaurant programme who has no association with The Lana. The reference was a name-similarity error in the research stage. The published roster of The Lana's restaurant programme is led by Martín Berasategui (Jara), Jean Imbert (Riviera), and Angelo Musa (pastry); the review has been corrected in place to reflect this. The verdict and Standard score are unaffected.

2. 2026-06-04 · correction · /dining/per-se-nyc-thomas-keller/

   Per Se — chef de cuisine

   The piece originally identified Per Se's chef de cuisine as Corey Chow. Chow departed Per Se in 2021. The current chef de cuisine is Chad Palagi; the piece has been corrected in place and the FAQ rewritten to reflect the current kitchen. The review's verdict and the kitchen's standing under Thomas Keller's executive direction are unaffected.

3. 2026-06-04 · correction · /destinations/antarctica-2026-2027-season/

   Antarctica 2026-2027 season — fleet additions

   The season preview originally cited a putative Aurora Expeditions vessel ("Sylvia Earle II") as a new entrant in the 2026-2027 fleet. No such vessel exists; the actual new Aurora vessel is the Douglas Mawson (132 guests, launched 2025). The piece also misidentified Quark Expeditions' addition: the vessel is the chartered World Voyager from Atlas Ocean Voyages (168 guests, multi-season charter), not a Quark-owned vessel at 200 guests. Heritage Discoverer guest count corrected from 140 to 130; the vessel's status corrected to a preview cruise ahead of a May 2027 commercial launch.

4. 2026-06-04 · correction · /reviews/aman-venice-review/

   Aman Venice — Tiepolo attribution

   The review's description of the Palazzo Papadopoli piano nobile ceiling frescoes attributed the work to Giambattista Tiepolo and named a fictional subject. The piano nobile cycles ("Il Mondo Nuovo" / "Charlatan / Minuette") are the work of Giandomenico Tiepolo, Giambattista's son. Giambattista's work at the palazzo is in the Alcova Tiepolo Suite only. Corrected in place. The review's verdict and Standard score are unaffected.

5. 2026-06-04 · correction · /dining/pic-valence-anne-sophie-pic/

   Maison Pic — family history

   The piece's family-history section as originally published compressed three generations of the Pic family by approximately 47 years. Sophie and Eugène Pic founded the original Auberge du Pin at Saint-Péray in 1889; André Pic moved the kitchen to its current Valence address in 1936 and earned the first three Michelin stars in 1939. The piece also contained an unverified claim about the circumstances of Alain Pic's death; that detail has been removed and the prose simplified to the verifiable handover of control to Anne-Sophie Pic in 1997. The verdict and Standard score are unaffected.

6. 2026-06-04 · audit summary

   Wave-3 corpus-wide fact audit

   The desk completed a corpus-wide fact-check audit against the ~100 pieces added in the wave-3 corpus expansion. The five entries above are the most material corrections logged from that audit. Ten additional in-place corrections were made of lower individual material weight (event dates off by 1-2 days, on-property staff details, single-number errors in stated guest counts or financial figures); these are not logged individually because the affected published claim does not change the piece's premise or verdict. No piece was withdrawn — every issue identified was correctable in place.
