CEA Opens Shanghai–Auckland–Buenos Aires "New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor" to First Bridge China and South America

SHANGHAI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On June 18, 2025, China Eastern Airlines (CEA) and Auckland Airport signed a cooperation agreement in Shanghai. According to the plan, CEA will launch commercial flights in December 2025 from Shanghai Pudong International Airport to Ministro Pistarini International Airport via Auckland Airport. The signing ceremony was attended by government officials, corporate representatives, and heads from relevant departments. New Zealand's Prime Minister Christopher Luxon highlighted that the new route will enhance global connectivity by linking Auckland with the dynamic economies of Asia and South America. He also announced that New Zealand will implement a visa-free transit policy for Chinese travelers passing through Auckland. Since the opening of the route to Auckland in 2014, CEA has shown strong growth. Chairman Wang Zhiqing stated that the airline will leverage its Shanghai hub to accelerate the construction of its global route network. The new route will serve as a vital bridge among New Zealand, China, the Asia-Pacific region, and South America, supporting the Belt and Road Initiative. Auckland Airport expressed satisfaction with the imminent realization of the jointly envisioned " New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor". CEA, Auckland Airport's key partner and now the leading carrier on the China–New Zealand route, has maintained steady operations and consistently expanded capacity. The new service, to be operated twice weekly by Boeing 777, will be the only direct air link between Argentina and China, filling the gap in direct air services between the two nations. The "New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor" shortens travel time by 4–5 hours versus European or North American routes and offers direct flights, while also reducing jet lag—passengers only face a 4-hour time difference when transiting through Auckland, as opposed to 12 hours via traditional Western routes. CEA plans to apply for fifth freedom for this route, enabling passenger and cargo transport in Auckland, boosting economic, trade, and people-to-people exchanges among New Zealand, China, and Argentina. Currently, CEA operates flights from Auckland to both Shanghai Pudong and Hangzhou Xiaoshan. Following the new route launch, CEA will boost New Zealand–China capacity deployment, increasing Auckland–Shanghai flights from 7 to 9 weekly. Note: The new route remains subject to final regulatory approval.

2025 Travelers Championship Generates More Than $4 Million for Charity

HARTFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) today announced that the 2025 Travelers Championship – a PGA TOUR Signature Event – generated more than $4 million for over 215 nonprofits, both record highs. Travelers also set a record this year as the longest-running title sponsor in the tournament's history. In the 19 years the company has been title sponsor, the Travelers Championship has generated tens of millions of dollars for charity. Alan Schnitzer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Travelers, said, 'This week truly captured what makes the Travelers Championship so special – world-class golf played before an enthusiastic crowd, all united by a shared purpose. It is a formula that led to a great week of golf and more money raised for charity than ever before. For 19 years, we have been honored to bring the PGA TOUR to Connecticut, and every year I am inspired by the passion of the players, the dedication of our fans and the incredible support from volunteers and partners who rally around our mission to give back. In addition to supporting vital charitable causes, we are proud that the tournament also generates significant economic activity for the state of Connecticut. Congratulations to our 2025 champion, Keegan Bradley, for rising to the top of one of the strongest fields in the game. We are already looking forward to making next year's tournament even more memorable.' The Travelers Championship donates 100% of its net proceeds to nonprofits. This year's primary beneficiary is The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, an organization based in Ashford, Connecticut, that provides a traditional summer camp experience for children with serious illnesses. Many other worthy charities – spanning arts and culture, education, health care, housing, human services, mental health, food insecurity, science and technology, and youth development – also benefit from their involvement with the Travelers Championship. Andy Bessette, Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer of Travelers, said, 'The Travelers Championship extends far beyond tournament week. We have created a community of fans that spans the region, and it is because of their support that we are able to make such an impact on so many charities, the true winners of the Travelers Championship. We are so grateful to the world's best PGA TOUR players for delivering another tremendous competition that we will all remember for some time.' The 2026 Travelers Championship is scheduled to take place June 22-28 at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut. For more information, visit About Travelers

Tesla prices in 2025: From $36K to $250K, here's what you'll actually pay

Everyone knows they're not cheap, but exactly how much does a Tesla cost? There's a huge difference in price between the cheapest Tesla and the most expensive Tesla. The EV lineup works for a wide variety of budgets and expectations. Tesla changes its prices and trim levels frequently now, but below you'll find pricing information for each Tesla model as of this writing, with reference points to how the prices most recently changed. Unfortunately, though the original Federal tax credits on Tesla vehicles have ended, the Inflation Reduction Act's revised credits are fair game for certain models. And you can still take advantage of state credits. Keep reading to learn how much you can expect to spend on a new Tesla. How much is a Tesla Model 3? As the cheapest Tesla available, the Model 3 has a lot to offer, including strong range and sleek styling that grows sleeker for 2024. Tesla has updated the 3 for the first time this year, and the enhancements are enough to earn the sedan the internal designation "Highland." You'll notice the thinner headlights, revised taillights, fresh wheel designs and the markedly nicer interior just from photos. Get behind the wheel to experience the improved ride quality and newly hushed cabin — it's much, much quieter than before thanks to acoustic glass all the way around, better insulation, and nicer interior materials. So, surely this improved Model 3 costs way more, right? Wrong! Even accounting for some late-2023 price changes — or, pricing rollercoasters — that saw fire-sale MSRPs on pre-Highland 3s, the new Model 3's $40,630 price tag was pretty much the same as before, including destination and the mandatory $250 order fee. That's for a rear-drive Standard Range Model 3, which arrives with a slight bump in estimated range, from last year's 267 miles to 272. Tesla didn't change any of the 3's mechanicals as part of the Highland updates, but improved aerodynamics and new, Tesla-specific tires are behind the mileage bump. At least, that was the Model 3 Standard Range's price — before Tesla discontinued the price-leader variant in fall 2024, leaving behind a version with longer range that actually costs even less, technically. Tesla Model Y joins the force: Why police departments are making the switch to EVs Wait, huh? That would be the Long Range model, which recently welcomed a lower-cost, higher-range rear-wheel-drive variant back into the fold. The Model 3 RWD Long Range hasn't been available since 2019, but is now back in new Highland form delivering a Model 3 lineup–topping 363 miles of range. Its price is a nice $44,130, just $3,500 more than the now-defunct Standard Range model, and even better, it qualifies for the $7,500 EV tax credit — effectively dragging its price down to just $36,630, lower than even the basic rear-drive Model 3 Standard Range (which didn't qualify for the same credit — a likely reason why it's now gone from the lineup, besides its China-sourced LFP batteries potentially spelling trouble with upcoming tariffs on China-sourced EV components). As the least-expensive, biggest-range Model 3, the Long Range is going to be tough to pass up for most buyers. Tesla is keeping the dual-motor Long Range variant around, too, which adds a front drive motor for all-wheel drive, along with the same larger battery for improved range. It now starts at $49,130 (including Tesla's $1,390 destination charge and $250 order fee). Its range dips slightly, from last year's claimed 353 miles (358 per the EPA's website), to 341. The racier Performance model is also back, with 510 hp, 303 miles of range, and a $56,630 price tag including destination. Like its big-battery stablemates, the Long Range models, the Performance also qualifies for the EV tax credit. So, while it's great that Tesla's lowered or held the line on the 3's prices and figured out a way for them to qualify for those credits, remember, the cheapest variant no longer qualifies for the full $7,500 Federal EV tax credit, thanks to its China-sourced batteries. And every paint color save the new Stealth Grey costs extra, from $1,000 for Pearl White and Deep Blue to $1,500 for Solid Black and $2,000 for the also-new Ultra Red. How much is a Tesla Model S? The all-wheel-drive-only Tesla Model S is significantly more expensive than the Model 3, but recently got a $2,000 price cut (as of April 20). The Dual-Motor Long Range variant (now just called "Model S" on the company website), which travels an estimated 405 miles on a full charge, is now priced at $74,380. After the tri-motor Plaid variant saw its price hiked, first from $119,690 to $131,190 after the news dropped that Tesla won't make the 520-mile, higher-performance Plaid+ model, which CEO Elon Musk claimed is no longer necessary, it saw yet another jump to a whopping $137,190. That was previously slashed to just $116,380 — lower than the Plaid has ever been priced — it's current starting price is now $89,380, significantly cheaper than last year and also two grand cheaper now. This might just be worth it — although its driving range falls to an estimated 348 miles, the Model S Plaid benefits from a manufacturer-estimated 0-60 mph time of fewer than 2.0 seconds and a top speed of 200 mph. In our tests, a less powerful dual-motor Tesla Model S Plaid zoomed to 60 mph in just 2.1 seconds. That makes it the quickest production car we've tested. Love it or hate it: See the Tesla Cybertruck meet bold, modified styles How much is a Tesla Model X? With an estimated range of 348 miles, the dual-motor Tesla Model X now goes for $79,380, down big time from its recent charge of $122,190. The Model X Plaid's range drops to an estimated 333 miles, but like the Model S Plaid, it delivers quicker acceleration and a higher top speed. Prices for this trim had started at an eye-watering $140,190, but like other Tesla prices have plunged in recent months to $121,380, close to its original ask when it first debuted, and now it's priced at $94,380 in the latest model line update (as of April 2024). The Model X comes standard with five seats. A six-seat configuration costs an extra $6,500, and a seven-seat configuration costs $3,500. How much is a Tesla Model Y? The Model Y, Tesla's compact SUV, as of January 2025, is new. Tesla has introduced the new-gen Y referred to online as the "Juniper." After initially only selling the Launch Series special-edition launch version starting at $61,630 — and is based on the dual-motor, Long Range variant and is claimed to deliver 320 miles of range — Tesla has begun fleshing out the rest of the "regular" lineup, which was being covered by remaining previous-generation Model Y inventory until just recently. Those non-Launch Series Model Ys are the Long Range, Dual Motor example starting at $50,630 with destination and order fees included, as well as the more recently introduced Long Range, Single Motor variant going for the same $46,630 as the equivalent pre-Juniper model. The Dual Motor good for as much as 327 miles of range and qualifies for the $7,500 federal EV tax credit, too, though its price is slightly higher than last year's equivalent Long Range Dual Motor Y. The Single Motor version ups that range figure to 357 miles and also qualifies for the EV tax credit. So far, there is no Single Motor, Standard Range model, as was offered previously; that version was a price-leader, starting at $44,380 including the destination fees but before factoring in any incentives (namely the $7,500 federal EV tax credit it qualifies for), but only good for 260 miles of estimated range. The Performance variant offered previously is similarly on hiatus but expected to rejoin the lineup with Juniper upgrades soon. The Model Y comes standard with five seats; however, before Juniper, paying $2,000 extra added a small third-row bench to Long Range models, which brought the SUV's seating capacity up to seven; that option is missing from the new model for now, but we anticipate it's return soon. Drop another $1,000 and Tesla adds a tow hitch, which allows users to make the most of the SUV's available 3,500-pound towing capacity. How much is a new Tesla Roadster? Tesla has ambitious goals for its new Roadster: hit 60 mph in 1.9 seconds and achieve a range of 620 miles. Fittingly, prices will start around $200,000. The Founders Series, limited to the first 1,000 customers, is priced around $250,000. At this price, the Roadster is poised to become the most expensive Tesla in the lineup. As of right now, Tesla is taking reservations for the Roadster but the official on-sale date hasn't been announced. How much is a Tesla Cybertruck? The much-hyped and equally delayed Tesla Cybertruck all-electric pickup truck arrived for the first few customers in late November 2023. All other Cybertruck orders will be delivered through 2024 and start at $79,990 for the standard AWD version. If you want the most powerful version, you'll want the 845-hp Cyberbeast specification that's going on sale at $99,990 with its triple-motor layout and 35-inch tires on 20-inch wheels. Sad about that promised $39,900 version of the Cybertruck that's definitely no longer happening? There is a cheaper, rear-wheel-drive Cybertruck arriving in 2025 — that'll start at $60,990. Range estimates are early, but Tesla claims that rear-drive Cybertruck will deliver 250 miles of range, the mid-level AWD version will get 340 miles (or up to 470 miles with an available range-extender battery), and the Cyberbeast will do a lower 320 miles (or "440+" with the extender). All Cybertrucks will be able to DC fast charge on Tesla's V3 Supercharger at a 250 kW rate, which can add between 128 to 136 miles of range in about 15 minutes. Another feature new for Tesla bi-directional charging capability, turning the Cybertruck into a rolling battery generator for your house — or a charger for other Teslas. It also features a 120-volt and 240-volt inverter with plugs located in the bed. In related news, you can see how much the Cybertruck will cost Tesla to build, and how much it could cost buyers to insure. How much is a Tesla Semi? Tesla's Semi, which has already received orders from companies like Walmart and J.B. Hunt, is expected to start around $150,000. Founders Series models are expected to go for around $200,000. Here again, an exact on-sale date has not been announced. But Tesla says the first Semi deliveries have already taken place as of early 2023, though they were originally promised way back in 2021. Full Self-Driving capability Tesla offers what it calls Full Self-Driving Capability as a $15,000 option (it used to be $10,000). Tesla promises this hardware package will someday allow the car to drive itself without any input from the driver, but as of today, it is limited to advanced driver aids that fall short of allowing completely autonomous driving. *Prices listed do not include available government incentives How much does a Tesla cost?
