My First Op-Up as a VS Gold

I went to London this past weekend to help Jason pack up for his move to Barry's. Naturally, Jason being Jason, the packing was all done, so I just helped haul all the boxes down the the van that they had hired. I stayed with Billy, Susan, Pepper & Astro and had a great time.

My first trip as a newly minted VS Gold and I got an op-up from PE to UC on the LHR-JFK flight.

Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Gold

I'll be taking my first trip as a newly minted Gold to London on Wednesday.

I'm already planning on dinner in the JFK Clubhouse
sleeping throughout the flight, then a shower, massage and cooked to order breakfast at the LHR Revivals lounge.

I've already booked my massage appointment at the LHR Clubhouse for my return. Click here to take an interactive tour of the LHR Clubhouse and here to see the menu for the Brasserie, the full service, sit down restaurant.

Life is good as a VS Gold, far, far better than it was as an AA Executive Platinum.

Buh-Bye to American Idol Gay Stripper David Hernandez

After the way he butchered the Beatles "I Saw Her Standing There" last night, it's no surprise that David Hernandez will be heading back to his job as a stripper at Dick's in Phoenix. Next up on the chopping block will be Kristy Lee Cook.

Mardi Gras in Sydney

Just got home on Monday from Mardi Gras in Sydney. It was a great trip - I stayed with my friend Adrian from San Francisco at his friends Ian & Will - they are very nice guys and wonderful hosts! My friends Daniel from London and Mario from NYC were also there enjoying the festivities. One of the best things about the trip was that I made Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Gold - woo-hoo!
