There are dozens of these in travel oriented magazines, newspapers and business magazines such as this - almost every airline does them. If you spend a few seconds searching you'll find a vast number of these on the Internet, and the level of "love" you see in this article is tame compared with many of them.

Honestly, the only complaint I would have here is that it is a terribly badly written article.
Yes, and the "article" should have "Advertisement" above and below it.
