Brussels Airlines recently announced some major network upgrades and in-flight products and took to social media to brag about their new toys to all their followers. With dramatic unveilings on Twitter and instagram and the final product look on Facebook, the carrier created quite a buzz for their newest seats.

In the front of the plane, the Belgian carrier is launching lie-flat sky beds for intercontinental service with all of the bells and whistles we expect in business class. Super roomy seats with loads of work space is what premium passengers can expect with the addition of a pneumatic setting that allows passengers to pick a 'hard' or 'soft' seat.

Don't worry, there is some fun for economy too! By reducing the profile of their seats, Brussels boasts just about 33 inches of leg room and further recline.]]> jetflyboy 2012-01-16T12:25:35-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/12/23/71514/032

Last week we just scratched the surface about what Delta has planned for New York’s LaGuardia Airport, but this week all the juicy details have been released for new cities and new flights. Overall it looks like Delta is really building up LGA as sort of a new domestic hub, as they’ve got flights heading out of the Big Apple to here, there, and everywhere.

Some of the flights were part of a trade off with US Airways, so a few routes are staying the same—they’re just getting new planes, pilots, and flight attendants to fly back and forth. In total there’s like 100 new daily flights to 30 different cities, and it’s all happening from LGA.

Meanwhile, Delta is hard at work on the other side of Queens at JFK, building new stuff and updating terminals, but with all these new flights and new cities we hope that the bulldozers and hardhats take a hop on the Van Wyck Expressway when they’re done. ]]> kjb 2011-12-23T08:41:17-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/12/20/11535/967

If you were wondering why the Empire State Building was lit up in green and red last night, it wasn't just because they were in the spirit of the season, they were actually providing the backdrop for a pre-taped performance by Jessie J that will air on NBC's New Year's Eve with Carson Daly.

Carson will be filming performances for the upcoming special all week in New York City and you can be a part of the audience! Tonight they will taping two performances by The Roots with Jimmy Fallon and Tony Bennett, both of which will air on NBC on New Year's Eve. ]]> cmb 2011-12-20T12:59:11-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/9/11/22255/0246

It’s been ten years in the making, but yesterday the 9/11 Memorial in New York City opened to families of the victims affected by the tragic events of September 11, 2001. Starting today, the place is open to anyone and everyone, so you’re free to pay your respects. However, you are going to need a ticket, but don’t worry—they’re free.

Timed admission passes are available online, but as you can imagine, they're being booked up quickly. As of this morning, there are a few options for later this month, but you’re going to need to cut of work early—or extend that lunch break—as they’re smack dab in the middle of the afternoon. The online reservation system is pretty slick, as you can pick specific times and dates with little to no hassle—again, assuming availability. Things were a little buggy at times, but we’re just thinking it’s because we’re only one of like a million people trying to access the site. ]]> kjb 2011-09-12T09:10:40-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/8/16/42425/1390

Who needs Oprah when we have Anderson Cooper?

Anderson's new gig, the aptly titled Anderson, is a one-hour syndicated daytime talk show that has already started filming in New York City. And it looks like the CNN-anchor-turned-talk-show-host is eager to fill seats in his new studio in Jazz at Lincoln Center’s The Allen Room, because he's made it pretty easy to get tickets. ]]> cmb 2011-08-16T10:20:35-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/6/21/12847/4688
