Greetings from the skies somewhere over Canada! š I splurged and purchased WiFi for the 5.5 hour flight. Might as well, right? I’m on vacation! Or am I working?
So, I’ve decided thatĀ Virgin America is the hidden gem of airlines! I’ve had such a great experience so far. I feel like I just uncovered a big secret!
The Virgin America terminal is actually sort of hidden at Logan airport. But, after walking by the looonnggg security lines at US Airways and American Airlines, I didn’t care that I had to walk a little ways to get to Virgin.
I checked-in online last night, so I already had my boarding pass. All I needed to do was go through security, which as you know usually takes some time. But, at Virgin America’s security, there were just 3 people in line ahead of me– and they were traveling together. The whole process (taking off shoes, etc.) took maybe 5 minutes.
Inside the terminal, I grabbed some much-needed coffee from Cosi. I didn’t sleep at all last night (wine country excitement!?!), so the caffeine was a big help!
I grabbed a Pro Bar from home for breakfast.
I still can’t believe these babies have close to 400 calories in them, but a bar that calls itself the “Whole Food Meal” is perfect for a breakfast on-the-go.
I loved this flavor! Dried berries, nuts, and gooey oats– delish!
I brought my Vega waterbottle along for the trip and filled it with H20 when I arrived at the airport. The BlogHer people actually suggested bringing reusable dishes and utensils to the conference to help minimize waste (environmentally speaking).
On the plane…
Check out the “9″ portal to flying nirvana” sitting in front of me! š
“Red” is Virgin’s in-flight entertainment system that allows you to on-demand just about anything you want.
Including TV shows and movies, video games, 3,500 songs (you can even make a playlist)…
You can even shop and make donations!
And you can order meals, snacks, and beverages right to your seat. Of course, I think this is the coolest part! š
What should I order for lunch?
Fresh Veggie and Cheese Box?
Or Chatpata Chana and Raita?
Perhaps a glass of wine too? š
I have some work to do on the flight. See ya in SAN FRANCISCO!
