Such a LUSH for a Good Time

You’ve read about them before, I’ve talked about them on TV and believe it or not, no, I’m not paid to do so (but I should be). I love LUSH. Yes, there, I said. I love them. Their products are amazing and I recently found out, their employees are too. On a recent trip to Vancouver (which was not among one of my...

If you haven’t figured it out yet, one of the Best All Inclusive Deals out there is cruising. From the moment I went on my first cruise in 2002 I was hooked, the whole experience makes for an amazing memorable vacation.

Jun 24, 11 Flightster Friday: The One Hour Day

Posted by in Flightster

As I’ve written about before the “trips” (or flights a crew member is scheduled to work) we work often vary. There really isn’t such a thing as “do you always work this route?” because chances are, no, the crew doesn’t. On this particular three day trip, on day two I was only scheduled to work one flight from San...

Conan O’Brien does humorous take on airline fees

Ever wonder what an airline executive would say about the billions of dollars raked in from baggage, reservation and other fees? Conan O’Brien does. Take a look at his interview with the fictitious Tony Kent, “Delta Air Lines executive vice president.” “Actually, Conan, even with those fees, Delta is just...

Posted by in Gay Travel

On my trip to Vancouver Gailen David and I were lucky enough to be given a tour of the LUSH cosmetics factory by one of their amazing employees, Jill. I will post more about the tour in an upcoming update, but this post is about something more important. She mentioned that prior to showing up to greet us she had been working out...
