Home to millions of bright flashing neon lights, over the top hotels and casinos, A-list parties that last into wee hours of the morning on a daily basis and where many people win big…but more lose even bigger. Of course I am referring to Las Vegas, Nevada. Now while Sin City may be well known [...]
A tourism video can do a lot for a particular destination. From the informative to the chic and stylish to the downright bizarre, each locale has its own unique way of doing some self promoting. One thing is for sure with all these videos, they are definitely putting a lot of money into them. I [...]
Well yesterday’s article was pretty revealing. I mean we had some very sinful travel experts get a lot off their chest. In fact it got so bad that I needed to close down the confession booth for 24-hours. But I am back with even MORE travel confessions. I will try to keep it a little [...]
Times are tough and people are hungry. So two of the most delicious cities in the United States are giving travelers and locals a break this summer with some great dining deals. New York City has just extended the annual Restaurant Week until Labor Day (September 7) at over 250 participating restaurants. What started as [...]

Brits, start practicing your poker and getting your slot machine arm in tip-top shape. Why? Because British Airways announced today a new nonstop flight between Las Vegas and London. Yes Sin City will welcome even more locals from London, which make up a hefty amount of Vegas tourists already, for what is sure to be [...]
I am a travel junkie. Seriously, I am. I probably look at travel news, stories, deals and journals more than anything else during my weekly activities. It is an addiction and something that I may need to eventually get help for (is there a Traveler’s Anonymous?). In any event, while my travel bug is still [...]
Sir Richard Branson is at it again. That is because Virgin America is running another great sale to many top U.S. destinations. The catch is that you must book by May 31 in order to lock in these low prices. This is one of the last spring sales via Virgin America and travel is good [...]
