Airport Hotels & Parking

Whether you are traveling for business or pleasure situations arise when it is inconvenient to make it to the airport in time to catch your flight.  When those situations arise, why not stay at a hotel near the airport ?

Leaving Early in the Morning

Most Airlines want you to arrive at least 2 hours before your plane departs, and if you are flying internationally, at least 2 1/2 hours early.  With airport security being as strict as it has been lately, it is wise to arrive early to ensure you will make your flight.   If for instance your flight is leaving early in the morning getting their in time would force you to get up way to early.  Instead, find a hotel near the airport.  Usually there will be a hotel in your price range.

Most major brands (Hilton, Hyatt, Radisson, Holiday Inn, etc) will have hotels near any major airports so you will have a variety of choices in terms of amenities and options.

Arriving Home Late

On the other hand, if your return flight arrives late, wouldn’t it be more convinced to just stay at a hotel close to the airport and rest ?  Traveling can be quite stressful and tiring, you deserve and owe it to yourself to not overdue it.

Where Are You going to Park Your Car ?

Another issue you must face when traveling is where you are going to park your car when you are gone.  Parking at the airport can be quite expensive.  A better alternative is to park “off airport” and save a substantial amount of money.  Even better, and more convenient is to leave your car right at the airport where you are planning to stay at before or after you leave for your trip.  Most airport hotels will offer what is know as a “park and fly”  or “stay and park” program.  With these packages you can usually leave your car right at the hotel and a hotel shuttle will transport you to and from the airport.  Often, these packages do not cost much more that what you would pay to park at the airport, so in essence it is like getting your hotel room for nothing.

Please take a moment to look around our website.  Use it to research (and even book) your next trip.  We hope you will stop back often and consider us an essential resource in your trip planning.  We will do our best to keep the site up to date and continue to add informative articles and resources.

Vacation Planning for 2013

Every year about this time I sit down and plan my trips for the year.  I divide my trips into 3 types – Weekend Vacations, Mini Vacations, and Major Vacations.

Weekend Vacations are typically 2 to 4 days in length and usually at a location within driving distance of my home.  A “Mini Vacation” is typically a vacation of 4 to 10 days in length and often involves air travel, and a Major Vacation virtually always involves Air Travel, and often involves travelling to another country or continent.  The Weekend Vacations do not require much advance planning, whereas the other 2 types of vacation require more advanced planning in terms of time and budget.

When I sat down to plan this years Major Vacations I promised myself I would travel to somewhere that I have never been to before that I have always wanted to go to.

Of all the places in the world I want to travel too, but have never been is China.  I remember when I was young I was just fascinated with China and the Chinese culture.  I would amaze at photo’s of the Great Wall of China, and the interesting architecture of the buildings.  The Chinese people and Chinese quisine just added to the allure.

Although it had been previouly closed to foreign visitors, China holidays have now become a reality for many people since the 1980′s.  With that in mind, 2013 will finally be the year that I make my journey to China a reality and I absolutely, positively cannot wait for that to happen!

Fly Clear Continues to Spread Wide

Fly Clear Continues to Spread Wide

 

It seems like the multitude of airports that are CLEAR-eligible has grown and New York is the latest recipient of this. It’s no question that New Yorkers would love to fly clear, too. In a place where people have a constant need to move and cannot stand to be patient, waiting in security lines might be the least attractive thing conceivable for travelers. However, this system has now come into play and I can say that, as a New Yorker, this idea couldn’t have come to a more fitted place.

Being able to fly clear is a simple concept: everything is done through an identity card which is laced with iris scans are well as fingerprint information. Security measures are quite robust for such a trouble-free idea and traveler authorities like CLEAR understand that identity information shouldn’t be taken lightly. CLEAR operates within seven different offices in the United States and Britain. For a potential member to finalize their membership, they must go to one office and present a government ID in order to verify the necessary information.

The fly clear method is one that is infinitely enlarging. It’s already being done in places like Orlando, Florida and Denver, Colorado but who’s to say that it wouldn’t continue to spread until the snowball effect couldn’t be halted? New Yorkers may enjoy the idea of bypassing airline security in order to get on flights sooner but that doesn’t mean other areas of the planet would turn the other cheek at it. When a simple process is implemented, almost everyone is going to want a shot at it.

What if you have family members who want to board a plane but don’t want to hear with the unnecessary wait times that come with it? I have grandparents who were from Queens and to say that they were impatient would be an understatement, whether it came to learning new things or simply waiting around. While this method may have technology that seems daunting at first, just know that everything makes sense in the long run and it can be very beneficial.

Seeing the CLEAR system make its way to New York is quite thrilling and I’m sure that will be for other states once the program is instated. To put it essentially, this is a procedure that needs to be implemented. I can’t begin to tell you how many times members of my residence have flown in from Florida or another distant state, not failing to note just how tedious security lines were. Hopefully these will be made a non-issue very soon to those who are ready to take the plunge on this method.

Primary FlightSleep Travel Accessory Users Experience Comfy Rest in Upright Position

One month after market introduction, FlightSleep, the innovative new travel accessory that promises improved travel comfort and convenience for weary travelers has received positive feedback from the product's 1st users. These early FlightSleep shoppers are reporting prolonged times of snug sleep when utilizing the machine. Here is what one consumer declared, “A great new invention. Very simple I'm shocked someone hasn't thought of it earlier.

I feel very rested after a sleep on my FlightSleep. No cricks in my neck and no waking up when I nod too far forward.” Medical professionals credit the efficiently correct design which can provide support in front instead of behind the neck with the improved comfort. This design keeps the head and neck in proper alignment which delivers more comfort as the neck muscles are more rested. FlightSleep is a small, semi-soft platform designed to support the head and chin in a touch forward position while sleeping or resting in a seated position. Primary users report that the tiny size of the compact device makes it very suitable to deploy in today's challengingly tight seating on aeroplanes.

FlightSleep travelers found they'd more space even in economy seats since maximum comfort and rest comes when the user doesn't recline the airline seat. Because of the natural desire for the jaw and head to move forward and down during rest, FlightSleep provides maximum support of the chin at rest while sitting upright. Users also enjoy the compact design of FlightSleep, about the size of a tennis ball in a bag, and find it straightforward to take along on any trip. It's so small that I can carry it in my purse and simply pop it out for a peaceful nap without troubling other passengers.” there were no reports of issues at airport security checkpoints as the see though colour will allow the product to simply pass thru scanning. FlightSleep is turning out to be a critical new solution for frequent travelers who have to rest easily in transit, but are facing fewer, more crowded flights, growing limitations on baggage and even charges for using airline pillows.

The product is available online at FlightSleep. Distribution investigations should be directed to FlightSleep, 3645 Market-place Boulevard * Suite 130-357, Atlanta, GA 30344.

New Travel Company Plans To Bring Balance Between Work, Home, And Spare Time

“The stats about American spare time are not inspiring. Workers in the US have some of the lowest vacation benefits of any industrialized country. More studies show the rocketing number of workers who've paid vacation time and do not use it. Typically employed adults in the U. S. leave three to six new holiday days on the table a year.

Analysts and psychological consultants believe this is the sign of a deeper issue : An increasing struggle to achieve a carefully balanced between work and home, between fostering one’s career and nurturing the self. A large percentage of folk are nurturing a family also, for these folk this balance becomes an even bigger struggle. Over time the importance of holiday and free time has become more obvious. A powerful study carried out by the families and work institute, Titled “Over worked in The United States : When how we work become too much” explains how being overworked with lack of vacation and leisure can breed stress and inequality. “For a serious number of US people, the way that we work today appears to be negatively influencing our health and effectiveness at work and home”. What will it take to modify this? Gateway Getaways President and Co-CEO, Demour Welch, Jr, believe they have found a way. He asserts, “We are trying to change lives for the better at Gateway Getaways.

We are supplying an opportunity for folks and families to be apart of a travel club that enables them to economize and change their lifestyle, not only on holidays and traveling, but in day-to-day life as well”. Mr. Welch say’s “More time spent at home with the family, more time spent with your important other and more time spent with yourself, those are the aims. Everyone wants to work diligently, but in the current day's fast changing world and shifting economy, working smart will enable you as much leisure vacation time as you desire.”. A study printed in the medical journal “Psychosomatic Medicine” has shown that taking regular holidays is associated with a longer, healthier life. “Vacations, exercise and other leisure activities, appear to be restorative and protective against the bad effects of mental stress.” Mr. GateWay GetAways was set up for the sole purpose of introducing a fresh way to balance work, home, and spare time.

GateWay GetAways plans to switch 1,000,000 lives by the year 2015.

Tween Travel Expert Launches Hyatt Hill Country Resort Review In Time For Spring Break Travel

She’s fun. She’s venturesome. She’s Gaby on a Busy schedule, the Internet’s newest-and only-teen travel advisor, based at Hyatt Regency Hill Country. She’s traveled and documented trips to SeaWorld San Antonio to Natural Bridge Caverns – and now she’s providing the YouTube generation with some beneficial traveling hints, guidance on what to do and offering dining recommendations. All this and she’s only 14. “I was watching different YouTube videos with all of these ‘how-to’ tips ; how to put on makeup, how to get to be a better tennis player, but nothing on the way to travel, better,” expounded Gabriella Caliendo, star of Gaby on a Busy schedule.

“And all the travel shows on the telly are produced and hosted by adults, so I had this idea. Why not make a travel show directed at kids my age?”. Gaby on a Busy schedule may have found its perfect demographic – as more and more teenagers and young adults embrace social media sites like YouTube and VEVO in such away, that many in the 12-18-year-old demographic rely solely on these sites for information and news. A show like “Gaby on the Go” is as easy as uploading to YouTube, from there it is available for millions of people, around the world, to stream.

Gabriella is the ideal hostess and qualified for the job. The San Antonio resident has grown up in the hospitality industry, her pop has managed varied Hyatt hostels and resorts for at least 30 years, and she has likely visited that many hostels in her short lifetime. Her dad, Gino Caliendo, is the CEO of Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort, which gave her uncontrolled access to discovering the many activities for kids of every age group. Gabriella was adamant the video segments maintain an exciting and eccentric tone, and that was achieved with the help of videographer Gil Kaufman, of Kaufman Productions in Miami. The intro and sound beds were all designed by Kaufman to maintain the “YouTube” feel of the production, yet giving it a professional quality. “We think Gaby on A Busy schedule is such a wonderful idea, and good for our resort. Gaby On The Go It was a great way to showcase all the activities that we provide for kids and pre-teens alike.” Said Melody Goeken, the resort’s public relations director.

It was once the mom made those decisions, but now kids’ are really weighing in on where those vacation dollars are spent.”. Other Gaby on a Busy schedule segments highlights tourist draws such as SeaWorld San Antonio and close by Natural Bridge Caverns and the Animal life Ranch. She even makes a visit to the Alamo! Each destination was completely explored by the young travel advisor and given her seal of quality.

“I'm releasing these at the perfect time, when teens are browsing the Internet for places to spend Spring Break and planning for their summer holidays. To look at “Gaby on the Go” please feel free to visit Hyatt Regency Hill Nations YouTube Channel at youtube. About Hyatt Hill Country.
