Cathay Pacific Airways: Committed To Luxury


The Hong Kong based airline has upgraded its First Class cabin suite accommodations in its Boeing 777-300ER aircraft with many new luxury features. Passengers can now relax and enjoy the look and feel of luxuriating in an upscale resort or as guests at a vintage country estate.

As passengers enter the compartment, they’ll see modern sculptures displayed on the bulkheads, adding originally-created works of fine art to the comfortable setting. Each suite is now lined, both inside and outside, with attractive glossy fabric, metal and leather coverings.

Technical upgrades provide an all-puprose LCD touch screen comfort device, for reclining the bed-like seat and controlling individual lighting and sound choices. The latest in electronic equipment includes noise-abating headphones and an array of personal connections for iPhones, on-board working, communicating and on-demand TV and movies.

Travel Destination: Lake Tahoe, California/Nevada PDF Print E-mail

A good travel plan for senior summer ventures in America’s Far West is a visit to beautiful Lake Tahoe. The vast recreation area straddles the borders of Nevada and California, some 60 miles from Reno.

Horseback

Lake Tahoe is high up in the snow-capped Sierra Mountains , and summer temperatures are crisp and cool. The scenery of pine, aspen and maple forests surrounding the lake is spectacular. For those who prefer staying in the more tranquil California side of the lake, there are many types of accommodations, from luxury hotels to trailer parks to tent campsites. For the visitors looking for Nevada glitz and gambling glamor, that state’s eastern portion of the lake can be all they seek in casino resorts.

Everything a senior vacationer would want can be found in the Lake Tahoe area. From golfing to shopping, boating, fishing, water sports to backpacking to horseback trails, Lake Tahoe has it all. Or if preferred, the visitor doesn’t need to do anything, except sit back on the beach and enjoy the scenery and great summer weather.

For more Lake Tahoe information, check with your favorite online or neighborhood travel agency, or go to www.visitingtahoe.com.
