Play With Richard Branson's New Toy For $88,000 Per Week
When we aren't out jetting around or hopping a high-speed train, we like to fantasize about that other form of transportation: the almighty ship. So to allay our own curiosity as much as yours, we're spotlighting yachts with either notorious owners or histories...or both. Know of a bootylicious boat? Let us know.
Who doesn't dream of owning a lush private island in the Caribbean? Perhaps Virgin Group head honcho Richard Branson, who has been living the dream since 1979, when he purchased Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands and turned it into a private resort.
If you can't afford to take over the whole island for your vacation, at a cost of $47,000 a day, then how about chartering his new catamaran yacht, the Necker Belle, for a mere $88,000 a week? She'll be fresh from a makover (she used to be the Lady Barbaretta) in February 2010, just in time to catch the end of the rich exodus to the Caribbean in winter.

Adventures of Link: Hosting Your Own Airport Photo Shoot
We couldn't help but read the latest business travel story from the Wall Street Journal with a bit of a smirk. It's all about "secret" concierge services that will whisk celebs--and people who think they're celebs--through airports so they don't have to see a bunch of fanny packs.
Nevermind that these services promise to hamper our business of posting airport photo shoots. They're also just dumb unnecessary. If you've got the money to throw at these concierges, why don't you just book a flight on Virgin Charter?
Then again, maybe T. R. Knight could've used a hand or six when he wrangled this box at LAX.
