What do you think?!?!?

American Airlines is getting rid of first class for international flights! I just read this article About how they say that customers don’t want first class and so they are turning first class into business class.

I think it just sounds like a rebranding to me. What do you think?

The first flights featuring the newly reimagined seats will depart on June 5. Here’s what to know.

Have your ever spent the night at the airport?

No, I’m not talking about sleeping on the floor or canceled flights. I mean a hotel that’s not just close to the airport, but actually IN the airport!

At the Orlando International Airport, you can stay at the beautiful Hyatt that is literally part of the main terminal! But don’t think it’s going to be loud, chaotic and all Disney. Even though you can over look the hustle and bustle going on below while sipping a delicious glass of wine, you can also retreat to one of their many gorgeous restaurants for a delicious dinner or take a dip in their rooftop pool that overlooks the runway. Then relax and get some rest in the quiet rooms before you have to fly home in the morning after your fun vacation.

It’s such a great option for ending a cruise or park vacation or even getting a room for the day if you have an evening flight so you can rest and relax after a cruise.

What’s the first area you’d check out here?

Site Inspections = Hand-Picked Recommendations for YOU!

I toured the Hyatt Orlando Airport and the Disney Swan and Dolphin properties this today—not just to admire the lobbies, but to check the room layouts, amenities, and guest experience so I can give you honest recommendations. Every detail matters when planning a perfect pre or post-cruise stay.

Do you like staying close to port or in Orlando before your cruise out of Port Canaveral?

Let me match you with the hotel that fits your travel vibe—stress-free.

This Morning: Breakfast With the Cruise Pros (and a Side of Strategy)

My morning started with expert-led sessions on new travel trends, booking tools, and destination updates. What does that mean for you? Even smoother planning, better upgrades, and the kind of VIP service that starts before you even pack your bags.

What’s the first thing you do when you board a cruise ship?

Let me show you how stress-free planning a luxury cruise can really be.

I’m Off to Cruise School—But It’s Not What You Think!

This week I’m heading to a cruise industry convention where I’ll be touring ships, previewing new itineraries, and meeting face-to-face with cruise line reps. It’s like going back to school—but for luxury ocean and river cruising! I’ll be sharing exclusive updates all week long about what’s new, what’s hot, and what YOU need to know before your next sailing.

What’s one thing you’ve *always* wanted to know about cruises—but were too embarrassed to ask?

Follow along this week for the inside scoop!
