! There’s nothing like flying private. There’s no need to arrive two hours before your departure, no check-in line, no pat-down at security or squeezing your bag into the overhead compartment. Instead, there’s guaranteed on-time departure (unless of course you decide to spend more time in Nantucket), pulling up to the plane on the tarmac (exactly the way you see in the movies), advanced security screenings (ok, I sort of miss the TSA) and a plane full of space for you, and your golf bag, too.

I’ve been riding the Jetblue wave since 2002 (you know, the usual high school cross-country romance made possible by $49 each way tickets). But now there’s more to love than those roomy seats.
Enter Live From T5: James Blunt in Concert. 

Today, JetBlue Airways announced a free, private concert by Jetsetter James Blunt (exhibit a: ridin’ solo on boat with cowboy-hat-clad gals) on Tuesday, January 18 at Terminal 5 (T5) at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). The Live from T5 concert will celebrate the release of five-time Grammy nominated, British singer/songwriter Blunt’s new album “Some Kind of Trouble.”

From D.C to Kaskade & me, here’s a weekend full of home-grown, all-naturale, organic beats and eats. My weekend recap, from start to finish….
Ready, steady go!

Travel. Fly - On-Air. Train. 
Thursday. All Day. 

So I flew to Washington DC on Thursday morning to appear on Let’s Talk Live… let’s just say I learned  few lessons. 

1. The @US Airways Shuttle? Umm, not so much. After 3 hours of delays and runway resting, I realized there’s only one good thing about this so-called shuttle: the variety and plethora of business men, curiously pondering why I’m on the 6 a.m to DC. Oh good mornin’…. 

@USAirways don’t make me late to my date with #WashingtonDC#delays

2. Don’t wear red and khaki on a morning show during the holidays. On my way out of the studio, a lovely man said “Oh look, its the Christmas elf“… 

Just finished up a travel segment for @LetsTalkLiveDC… Thankfully I made it here despite this weather!

I love nothing more than dressing the part, especially when the part requires undressing (wink). Enter @4th Amendment aka Tim Geoghegan and Matthew Ryan’s new line that’s giving us a way protest those intrusive TSA X-ray scanners without saying a word. They’re not saying they disapprove of the airport security protocols, after all, safety first… but that doesn’t mean we need to strip silently. Check out 4th Amendments Metallic ink-printed undershirts,  underwear, socks and more. And to think, it all started with a simple strip down TSA lane.

Assert your rights without saying a word with 4th Amendment Wear.

Ready. Steady. Spain. Miles of sunflowers, not so easy Easy Jet, off the path islands, a hefty amount of ham (don’t tell my rabbi) and a whole lot of house. Weekend recap from start to finish…go!

Stay. Marques de Riscal.
Friday. 10 PM.

As I arrive at Marques des Riscal hotel, the quiet of night descends upon Elciego, a small town in the Rioja region. But even under the wash of night, it’s clear that this isn’t your average hotel. Designed by renowned architect Frank O. Gehry, Marques des Riscal is a sensory experience. The architecture brags, the Baccarat stemware chimes, the avant-garde culinary creations stews…  It’s a clash of titans here, so keep your eyes, ears and taste buds peeled… and some serious sipping.

Does your city’s airport have Tandem Sling seating?
