This week is one of the busiest times of the year for travel, so if you’re one of the 27+ million people who plan to fly this Thanksgiving, you’ll want to read Today Show contributor Peter Greenberg’s holiday travel tips. Greenberg’s suggestions include checking in online the night before and flying out of a smaller airport to avoid fly delays and traffic getting in and out of the airport (good tips for other times of the year, too). To relieve travel congestion, President Bush recently approved a “Thanksgiving express lane” from Florida to New England and added additional measures to avoid delays. Happy travels!

Making the Most of a Layover

October 10th, 2007 by susan j

I generally spend airplane layovers catching up on reading (I highly recommend the travel memoir Eat, Pray, Love for airport reading) or browsing the duty-free shops. After all, I’d hate to lose track of time or get caught in traffic and miss my flight!

But Tracy Barnett, travel editor for the San Antonio Express-News, is a bit more adventurous. Tracy recently spent a 5 hour layover exploring Los Angeles. I’m amazed by how much she did and saw in such a short time, so check out Tracy’s blog to read about her adventures in LA.

One of the challenges for vegetarians on vacation is finding veggie-friendly restaurants (I remember one particularly memorable meal in Dublin where the waiter simply did not seem to grasp the concept of “no meat”). Fortunately for those visiting Los Angeles, the City of Angels does have lots of options for herbivores. Zagat’s LA Blog recently ran a feature on Top Vegetarian Restaurants.

Welcome to the Go Los Angeles Card Blog!

October 2nd, 2007 by susan j

The great thing about travel blogs is that you can update them as often as you like so they reflect the most relevant, up-to-the-minute information for visitors. Funny thing is, there aren’t too many travel blogs that focus on specific travel destinations in the United States.

We hope to fill that void. The Go Los Angeles Card blog will bring you the latest (and greatest) attractions, tours, restaurants, and more to help you plan your trip to LA. Check back often, and leave a comment to let us know about your favorite LA attractions!
