Travel Quote of the Day

Travel Tip of the Day
Don’t Drag AOC For Flying First Class. She Made the Smart Choice and Maybe You Could Learn Something
The Daily Mail, in conjunction with the New York Post just wrote another joke of a post with the title: “AOC books luxury front row seat for flight from Austin to JFK“. The story is about New York congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez flying between Texas and New York on American Airlines. The Daily Mail writes: “AOC ditched the socialist act last week to bask in the luxury of a first class seat.” This was actually a great teaching moment for their readers on how to save money and fly safer but instead they wrote their typical hit piece. Here's what JohnnyJet.com readers can learn from this story.
