Admirals Club
Entertainment

The Admirals Club was conceived by AA president C.R. Smithas a marketing promotion shortly after he was made an honorary Texas Ranger. Inspired by the Kentucky colonels and other honorary title designations, Smith decided to make particularly valued passengers "admirals" of the "Flagship fleet" (AA called its aircraft "Flagships" at the time).[54][better source needed] The list of Admirals included many celebrities, politicians, and other VIPs, as well as more "ordinary" customers who had been particularly loyal to the airline.[citation needed]

There was no physical Admirals Club until shortly after the opening of LaGuardia Airport. During the airport's construction, New York Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia had an upper-level lounge set aside for press conferences and business meetings. At one such press conference, he noted that the entire terminal was being offered for lease to airline tenants; after a reporter asked whether the lounge would be leased as well, LaGuardia replied that it would, and a vice president of AA immediately offered to lease the premises. The airline then procured a liquor license and began operating the lounge as the "Admirals Club" in 1939.[citation needed]

The second Admirals Club opened at Washington National Airport. Because it was illegal to sell alcohol in Virginia at the time, the club contained refrigerators for the use of its members, so they could store their liquor at the airport.[citation needed] For many years, membership in the Admirals Club (and most other airline lounges) was by the airline's invitation. After a passenger sued for discrimination,[55] the Club (and most other airline lounges) switched to a paid membership program.[citation needed]

Flights to Florida

Flights to Florida Florida is a favourite with UK families, but this state isn’t all about Orlando theme parks. It is also home to stylish Miami, the laid-back Keys and the wild Everglades. There are direct flights to Florida all year round, travelling to a number of destinations up and down the state – though some, including Orlando, are very seasonal and see both choice and prices fluctuate significantly. Most of Florida is a huge peninsula extending south from the US, with the Atlantic to the east, the Caribbean to the south and the Gulf of Mexico to the west; little wonder, then, that it’s a favourite for beach holidays. How can I find cheap flights to Florida? There’s no getting around it: it can be tricky to find cheap flights to Florida from the UK. It helps to avoid UK school holiday dates, but bear in mind that winter sun and domestic travel also make much of Florida popular at Christmas and New Year too.

The Best Time and Time of Day to Book Airline Tickets

The Best Time and Time of Day to Book Airline Tickets If you’re looking for a deal on airfare, common wisdom is to book early and be flexible with your dates. While flexibility is good, the advance part may cost you money. Peter Greenberg, CBS News’ travel editor, shared some of his tips to save money and avoid costly mistakes when booking airfare. We’ve talked about how you should book eight weeks in advance when shopping for airfare, and while Greenberg doesn’t offer up complex equations to support his experience, he does say that you should probably wait and book a little later than that, mostly because of limitations in airline reservations systems. Instead, he suggests booking no earlier than 45-days out, or six weeks: The number one mistake I see most travelers make is to book too early. Unless you are planning travel for high-traffic days, like Christmas or July 4, you stand the best chance for the lowest possible fare 45 days out for domestic travel and 60 days out for ...
