C'mon—you knew this was going to happen. Beyonce and Jay-Z made a baby and this baby—Blue Ivy (like a superhero or something)—is about to become the world's hottest celebrity travelers. Why do we say this? Well, simply because traveling celebrity kids are a thing and, not only that, but the tabloids love a traveling A-list family, as evidenced by years and years of a barrage of articles on where the Jolie-Pitt clan are jetting off to.

Even better—this is going to be a cute little baby who'll turn into a cute little girl, who'll turn into a sassy teenager who knows more about St. Barts and private yachts and Gulfstream jets than most billionaires, because she's going to be raised amidst the best of all that, with parents who each must jet set in luxury as part of their jobs. Wow. Have we ever been more jealous of a helpless infant than we are right now?

And before we could even get this meager little story out, the frickin' LA Times had already coughed up a list of places that baby Blue Ivy needs to visit, such as the famous Blue Hole of Belize. We rest our case.

Not only have we entered 2012 this week, but it's also the last few days of winter break for schoolchildren. If we're talking about college-age kids, then they've got a little longer. Regardless, this is the last dash time for family vacations at the theme parks in Orlando, FL...specifically at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

We've been a few times now since it opened 1.5 years ago, and each time we return with photo galleries and tips aplenty. If you're about to jet down to hit the park or are contemplating a last-minute mini-vacay, here's everything you need to know:

· Changes to ticket prices & ride seating
· Our complete, first-hand survival guide to the Potter park
· Photos from November 2011
· Photos of the all the FOOD
· Inside the Forbidden Journey castle & ride
· The souvenirs! Oh man, the souvenirs.
· Photos & video of the Hippogriff and Dragons roller coasters
· Even more photos (from the night before opening)

A waiting area at London-Heathrow, packed with travelers and germs

My first year as a flight attendant I was sick more times than I can count. I had to figure out a way to travel and stay healthy. Cold and Flu season is upon us and if you're planning on getting on an airplane you'll want to follow my tried and true tips for staying healthy!

· Strengthen your immune system before you even get on a plane. Eat right and exercise. Think fresh fruit and vegetables, less sugar, and whole grains. A healthy lifestyle may prevent you from catching your neighbors cold!
· Sleep. Get a good nights rest the night before you fly. If your body is not used to it flying will make you extremely tired. Add the stress you'll probably be feeling and you have a recipe for exhaustion.
· Meditate. Speaking of stress, take the time to relax and before you travel, properly prepare yourself by packing a full day before and give yourself plenty of time to get to the airport. That way if you get stuck in traffic or the security line you can relax.]]> Sara Keagle 2011-12-20T11:00:01-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/12/6/63236/2365

Legoland in Florida still has its new theme park smell, but it’s already time to upgrade. The Lego bricks aren’t looking forward to the hot and humid summers, so they’re adding a brand new water park. Officials had mentioned this during the park’s October debut, but now we know that’s it’s all on scheduled and ready to arrive in time for the 2012 summer season.

Obviously there will plenty of spots to splish and splash for the kiddos, and as with the rest of the park it’s going to be tailored to the likes of loves of little ones. Some of the attractions planned for the new waterpark include a Lego Wave Pool, along with something they’re calling Twin Chasers—where you and a buddy twist and turn through intertwined tube tracks. ]]> kjb 2011-12-06T08:44:26-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/10/25/13935/390

Browsing winter vacation deals yet? Drooling over JetBlue Getaways offers like $359 per person for a 4-day escape to St. Lucia? Then you'll need to know that, if you go through with booking that trip, you have access to JetBlue's newest feature: a Concierge On Call.

The Concierge On Call service is super new (just announced yesterday), super rare (this from a lost-cost carrier?!), and super limited (only for JetBlue Getaways travelers). After booking a package deal with JetBlue, you'll receive the Concierge On Call contact phone number. Use it before and all throughout your trip to any of JetBlue's cities—even international. The service itself is free, but of course anything you book or arrange through it, you'll be paying for.

So what exactly can the JetBlue Concierge do? ]]> JetSetCD 2011-10-25T15:44:37-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/10/10/155950/94

Theme park openings are awesome, and today we plan to bring you all the latest and greatest as the fine folks of Legoland take the cellophane off their latest park in Winter Haven Florida and let us take a look around today.

It is media day, and Legoland Florida was kind enough to invite us and let us have a look around a day before the park opens to the public.

Miniland, Aqua Wave Racers, and maybe even some Lego Battles await -- so sit back relax and get ready to be awash in the inimitable Lego color palette -- live blog style.]]> markj 2011-10-14T10:40:01-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2011/9/26/53749/0298

Everyone knows about the little plastic wings—or even first flight certificates—the littlest of passengers can score during their in-flight adventures. However, the latest addition to your airline paraphernalia collection includes airplane trading cards, as JetBlue has released a series of baseball aircraft cards.

They’re really intended for the kiddos, but we won’t be shy about asking for one on our next flight aboard JetBlue. There are 15 different cards, and each card reveals a different aircraft tail-fin design or unique paint job. Ten of the cards are dedicated to the different designs outside of the Airbus A320 planes, and there are five showing off what the Embraer E190s look like. Best of all, when you collect all of them, the reserve of each card reveals a little picture puzzle depicting JetBlue employees hard at work. ]]> kjb 2011-09-26T09:00:02-05:00 Search Jaunted string http://www.jaunted.com/search/
