International Flight Lounge takes off again on October 30th!
Then we are switching to second Thursdays for Nov, Dec, and Jan because of the holidays.

It's a wrap! I just finished a slide show of vintage stewardess images that will be shown tomorrow night. We will also be showing some vintage TV ads from Braniff Airlines, the famous airline campaign that in the 60s announced "The End of the Plain Plane". They had Emilio Pucci design new flight attendant and pilot uniforms, Alexander Girard design the plane interiors, terminal lounges, and ticket counters, and in the 70s even had Alexander Calder decorate the outside of some of their planes.

Come fly with us this Thursday, November 13th! Your flight has been rescheduled to second Thursdays for November, December, and January due to the holidays (and my vacation in January).
Everything else is unchanged: high-flying tunes from around the world, the Layover drink special, yours truly in handsome pilot uniform, your hostess in sexy vintage stewardess outfit, groovy visuals on the TV, and peanuts!

I've been buying records like crazy lately. I have some great 60s groovy Italian buttshakers and lots of swinging 60s and 70s "sound library" music from France and the UK to accompany our flight to remote lands.
And Lee will be making her debut as our stewardess in a vintage-era United Airlines dress, as seen in the ad below!
We take off tomorrow at 8:00. This is gonna be a great one - don't miss it!

I'm seeking a couple of sexploitation films on VHS or DVD:
Fly Me, 1973
Swedish Fly Girls, 1971 (aka Christa)
It would be nice if they were in english but it's not neccessary because I want to screen them at International Flight Lounge with the sound off.
Please respond here or send me a PM.
International Flight Lounge returns in one week!

A special treat for all flight lounge attendees this Thursday - FREE FOOD!! That's right folks, something that not even the airlines are honoring these days. We're in the process of revamping our food menu and have a bunch of samples to go through. So come enjoy the musical pop stylings of Dj The Jab. Food service begins at 9pm. Come hungry!!

International Flight Lounge takes off again this Thursday, June 25th!
I'll be showing the movie "Christa" aka Swedish Fly Girls from 1971. It was actually filmed in Copenhagen, Denmark, and is filled with beautiful images of that city and some amazing mod interiors. It comes with subtitles in Norwegian, so if you can read Norwegian...
Check out the trailer here:

International Flight Lounge returns this Thursday, featuring a new in-flight drink special: The Jet Pilot! One of my favorite drinks. I hope your pilot doesn't get too inebriated to fly the plane!
Upcoming schedule:
Last Thursday in October (the 29th), then third Wednesdays in November (the 18th) and December (the 16th).
(because of the holidays which fall on the usual last Thursday).
