The Travel Detective is Back!

FLIGHT CREW CONFIDENTIAL

Insider secrets and hidden values in cities and airports around the world from the people who fly for a living

Peter Greenberg,
Travel Editor of NBC’s Today Show and Author of the phenomenal New York Times bestseller, THE TRAVEL DETECTIVE

Peter Greenberg boards over 200 flights a year. While the airlines universally despise him for revealing how consumers can avoid outrageous fares and travel restrictions, the flight crews love to talk shop. According to Greenberg, "Flight crews are the real travel experts when it comes to individual cities and airports."

In his new book, FLIGHT CREW CONFIDENTIAL (Villard Books / Publication date: July 30, 2002 / $15.95) three hundred flight crew members from all over the world, representing thirty different airlines, provide excellent, detailed suggestions and practical tips about where to find the best deals, prices, and service in cities and airports around the world from Atlanta to Anchorage, Sydney to Shanghai.

Why are flight crews travel experts? They fly to the same cities often four to five times a month, and have only about twenty-four hours on the ground before their return flight. Whether it’s where to find a cheeseburger at three in the morning in Istanbul or the best patisserie in the Charles de Gaulle airport, flight crews know. Need a great massage in Phoenix or the best hair salon in Seattle? Stuck in the San Francisco airport want to know the best nearby deli? Talking with flight crews can save travelers money, and perhaps more importantly, time.

In addition to FLIGHT CREW CONFIDENTIAL, Greenberg is also available to discuss the following topics:

Travel safety in a time of terrorism
How to travel solo for cheap
Airline/airport security are flyers safe? What do people on the inside think?
The best cities for summer vacation for couples and families
How early do you really have to arrive at the airport? Does it vary in each airport?
Where to go for Labor Day?
Which layover city to avoid?

**Flight attendants who contributed to the book are available for interview by phone or in each tour city.
