Virgin America: My Very Own Sir Richard Encounter!

This past weekend, I flew with my husband and daughter from SFO to JFK to attend a family wedding in Connecticut.  For the first time since my daughter was a very small infant, we flew Virgin America.  I love Virgin America as an airline and would love to fly it more, but (aside from New […]

Interviews with Traveling Moms: Me!

A few weeks ago, I kicked off a new series of posts interviewing friends and family about their experiences traveling with kids.  Before I ask additional friends to do it (and also because my “About” page on this blog is pretty bare), I thought I’d subject myself to the rigorous interview process.  Hope this gives […]

Disneyland – Avoiding the Cars Land Crush

As I wrote about last week, my family recently took a trip to Disneyland with a fairly large group of adults and young children.  Since my daughter is a big fan of “Lightening A’Queen” (as she calls him), we were excited to explore the new Cars Land attractions in the California Adventure Park.  The only […]

The good news is that I ended my rough work period with a long weekend trip to Disneyland last weekend!  This […]

Save Money with Frequent Flyer Miles & Points

  In the past year, I’ve become a bit of an addict when it comes to frequent flyer miles and hotel points.  Collecting points is how my family is able to travel as much as we do… some of our travel is essentially free!  Within the past year alone, miles and points have gotten me […]

Airplane Changing Tables: Which Airlines Have Them & Which Ones Don’t?

I haven’t had to struggle with diapers for about a year now (hooray for a potty-trained toddler!), but I distinctly remember just how hard a simple diaper change could be when traveling with a little one.  Believe it or not, there are a LOT of airplanes flying the friendly skies these days without a single […]
