Las Vegas: More than just the Strip

Published February 27th, 2008 in Destinations | No Comments →

Being a Flight Attendant and a newly appointed Instructor Evaluator at Delta has its advantages. During my nearly 10 years here I have seen my share of our destinations worldwide but I always enjoy making the trip back to my hometown, Las Vegas, Nevada.

So what can I tell you about Vegas that you don’t already know?

A LOT! Everyone knows the Strip, downtown, all the shows, and of course the gambling, but there is another side of Vegas I love as well, including national parks, historical sights, and of course shopping!

Have your own Vegas travel tips to add? Drop me a note in the comments below.

Have fun and I will look for you in the skies,

What do you do when you fly?

I love the time I spend on airplanes.

Sometimes I think it is the only time that I sit still for any length of time! It seems like every movie I have seen lately has been on a plane—it’s the perfect time to catch up on the latest. I just saw Oscar nominated films Elizabeth: The Golden Age, Into the Wild, and La Vie en Rose on my last round trip to Europe. And if it weren’t for flight time, I don’t think I would ever have time for anything more than the cartoons in The New Yorker.

In a recent study my group completed on in-flight entertainment, we found that reading, sleeping, and watching movies top the list of in-flight activities of SkyMiles members.

In-flight safety videos can be very boring. Trust us, we know! We remade this one to be more fresh, modern, and human. Plus, all the people you see are real Delta employees!

Stay tuned, I’ll be posting more details on the making of the video.

How ’bout a new plane for the new Delta?

Hey everyone,

As you all might have gathered from my previous entries and many responses to your comments and questions, I am a full-fledged aviation geek (or unofficial airline expert as I like to call it). I’m passionate about what I do and I love the airline industry.

And I’m not alone…I’m sure there are a lot of you out there that are just as interested in the industry as I am. So, for all my fellow airline geeks, check this out…

Ship 7101

Here she is just after painting…a peek at Delta’s first 777-200LR. And while she looks good on the outside in our new livery, wait ’til you see the inside. The delivery flight from Seattle to Atlanta is scheduled for Feb. 29.
