I'm off to Florida

I can't take it any more. The rain just doesn't stop and I need to go somewhere. I was supposed to be on a flight to South Africa but my trip got cancelled at the last minute (long story). I'm bummed, but relieved I don't have to be on a 18 hour flight. I just found a cheap ticket online to leave tonight for South Florida. I priced all the airports and surprisingly PBI was the cheapest. I am off to catch some rays and spring training.

BTW: We just sent this week's newsletter

About Me

Name: Johnny Jet

Location: Los Angeles, CA, United States

I used to be afraid to fly (long story). Moved to California from Connecticut at 21-- that's when I conquered my fear. In college I started dating a bona fide princess from Hong Kong. She was accustomed to flying Biz Class. I had ONLY flown coach -- and I had never been overseas. When she invited me home, I couldn't let the opportunity slip by. I (okay, my dad) bought the seat next to her from a consolidator. I picked the right time to have my first out-of-coach experience. WOW! What a difference-- A nice phat seat, some hot towels, a little sorbet to clean the palate, non-stop food, beverages and movies. When I returned to the U.S. I felt like a new man. I started working as a college recruiter. While traveling my 26-state territory on a tight budget, I learned traveling in style on a budget was possible. I started a weekly newsletter and JohnnyJet.com to share my tips. Three months later USAToday made JohnnyJet.com website of the week and now it's my full time job.
