San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 29, 2006

Interactive Travel Group today announced an expansion of its controlled beta launch of Traveler ID, a new, web-based service that enables travelers to receive personalized service no matter where they book their travel. The company will open up Traveler ID to an additional 25,000 travelers. The service is available at http://www.travelerid.com and has been in private beta since early May.

Traveler ID’s professional, easy-to-use website (http://www.travelerid.com) allows travelers to create comprehensive travel profiles, including air, hotel, car rental and vacation preferences — in less than three minutes — and provides each user with a unique identification number, a Traveler ID. The users themselves decide how much information they feel comfortable sharing.

Thereafter, whenever a user books travel at a travel website within the Traveler ID network, the user simply provides his or her Traveler ID number and passcode, and the user’s travel profile and preferences are instantly transmitted to the website, speeding up the booking process. The user is in full control over when and with whom the user’s profile is shared.

Traveler ID is completely free for travelers and charges travel websites a nominal fee for access to travelers’ profiles.

“We’re just about ready to open up to the general public,” said a company spokesperson. “We expect to go live for all travelers by the end of the year. Users who don’t make it into the beta program at this time will be invited to create an account before we open to everyone else.”

New Salon Opening in Southington, CT Brings Hollywood Glamour to Connecticut

New Salon Opening in Southington, CT Brings Hollywood Glamour to Connecticut











The Beauty Bar

Southington CT (PRWEB) October 28, 2011

When Adriana Bomova began the Beauty Bar, her on-location makeup service, eight years ago she never expected business to grow so quickly. The success led her to create an on-location Beauty Squad team to compliment the Beauty Bar. Catering to the Tri-State and New England area her small but skillful Beauty Squad team traveled all over to beautify brides-to-be, girls getting ready for their proms, and women attending a number of private parties.

Now, with a legion of loyal customers and the reputation that comes with five-star styling techniques, Adriana is planning the opening of a Beauty Bar Salon in Southington, CT on November 1st. The salon will feature three makeup artists, three hairstylists and a variety of salon services including spray tanning, hair styling, color services, high end makeup that will include top brands including MAC cosmetics and MAC Airbrush. Other glamour products being offered include Novalash eyelash extensions and So.Cap fusion single strand hair extensions.

In addition to gaining notoriety state-wide for her makeup styling skills, the Beauty Squad team was asked to join the TV stars of Jerseylicious to help fashion and style a horde of models during New York’s prestigious Fashion Week. Jerseylicious is an American docusoap that follows the stylists of the Gatsby Salon in Green Brook Township in New Jersey and airs on the Style Network. Adriana has also been lead makeup artist for Jim Masters, a radio and TV personality in New England, the Blue Back Square commercials and for chef Silvio, the owner of Woodwinds Banquet Hall in CT that has just launched a cookbook and pilot episode for chef Silvio’s new show. The exposure from being on popular TV shows will herald the major announcement Adriana will make concerning the cast of her own Beauty Bar Salon.

Before the doors of the Beauty Bar open, Adriana will be welcoming her sister-in-law, Vjosa Pacuku (V), to join the Beauty Squad team. Vjosa is leaving a high profile job in Los Angeles where she has been a personal stylist to many celebrities including Snoop Dogg, Melyssa Ford, Nas and Common. Knowing the popularity glam culture has gained in recent years, Adriana believes having an experienced Hollywood talent such as V in house will help launch the salon and entice customers to travel from New York City to get a significant discount compared to Manhattan prices and enjoy superlative makeup and hair styling that one would expect to find on the red carpets of celebrity gala events.

While Adriana will continue to travel to spread the word and style of her Beauty Squad team, she hopes the salon will become a swank destination for women across the state that want to capture the look and feel of unbridled glamour. Specializing in wedding makeup, photo shoots and pre-party hair styling, the Beauty Bar believes the time is right to expand the brand and have a physical location that will house the growing team of Beauty Squad experts.

In the Air Waves : Stress Fair Warnings for Summer Travelers

Posted by on August 18, 2011 1 comment

In the Air Waves : Stress Fair Warnings for Summer Travelers












Parkland, FL (PRWEB) June 9, 2004

Travelers who have booked flights might want to heed the latest health warning regarding new millennium air travel stress effects. The airports have forewarned that summer travel is going to be the heaviest it has been since pre-September 11th and that translates to extra long lines at security check points, crowds, and inconveniences.

“This is the way it is and will be and air travelers who are wise will take a serious look at options for ameliorating the effects of air travel stress,” said Ruth Cann, a mental health therapist, air travel stress expert, and the wife of a commercial airline Captain. Cann says there are research supported measures that people need to be aware of and take advantage of for health reasons.

As the creator of E-Z-FLIGHT: Passenger In-flight Relaxation Experience, a take-onboard CD which was introduced on Delta Air Lines, Cann has combined the proven elements for in-flight relaxation as an alternative to self-medicating and alcohol consumption. Therapeutic mental relaxation exercises via guided imagery and strategically selected music, encourage visualization as a catalyst for compounded stress. According to Cann, many frequent flyers are sporting E-Z-FLIGHT and a CD player as their personal in-flight relaxation host of choice.

“My concern is the surge of frustration and anger that travelers experience on some level when dealing with new millennium procedures. This surge raises blood pressure, heart rate, and perspiration all under the heading of air travel stress. Add this on to everything else in a typical day on planet Earth, and it spells, health risk. When you board a plane with all of this excess mental baggage, there has to be some self-help relief provided as a precautionary measure,” stated Cann.

It is predicted that record numbers will take to the skies and experience the Transportation Safety Administration doing its job in airport terminals with a Federal cap on the number of screeners who will assist. “If mother nature decides to join in the festivities with a storm or two, stress factors will compound and most people are not prepared to view it as a new millennium system that will take many years to perfect.” ‘I paid…Get me where I’m going.’ is an attitude that unfortunately prevails in many airport circumstances,” said Cann.

Business travelers will need to adjust to the dramatic increase in expected numbers as schools close and family vacations begin. As seasoned as some might believe they are, the setting is conducive for increased stress according to Cann.

Her advice, “Deep breathe, sigh, and quit wasting energy reserves on things you think you can change. Travel has become a go-with-the-flow, no-exception-to-the-rules operation. People need to accept the scene and expect that things will not go smoothly. If I’m wrong, consider it a win.” With a traveler being one out of 200 million in the predicted summer air travel numbers, the odds of winning appear slim.

Air Ambulance Company AirMed Receives Endorsement of ZVS, the Nation’s Top Visa and Passport Service

Posted by on April 5, 2011 1 comment

Air Ambulance Company AirMed Receives Endorsement of ZVS, the Nation’s Top Visa and Passport Service












Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) May 18, 2008

Award-winning air ambulance company, AirMed International (airmed.com), has received the endorsement of and become the “Official Air Ambulance Provider” for the well-respected passport and visa company ZVS, Zierer Visa Service. ZVS has offices throughout the world with their corporate headquarters in San Francisco. ZVS specializes in fast, dependable, overnight and same-day passport and visa services.

ZVS customers who sign up for AirMed’s membership program, called AirMed Traveler, will receive substantial discounts off the annual retail rates. Simply put, an AirMed Traveler membership gets you back home if you’re hospitalized while traveling. Most travelers assume their current health insurance will cover them while traveling, but in almost all instances, this isn’t the case. And unlike most trip insurance, AirMed will airlift you to the hospital of your choice, not simply the ‘nearest appropriate facility’ as is the case with well-known trip insurance. Unlike travel or health insurance with an AirMed Traveler membership, there are no deductibles, no co-pays, and no pre-existing condition limitations.

AirMed is equipped to pick you up from any hospital around the world and bring you home where you want to be. AirMed members also have 24/7 access to the Medical Services Hotline with Western-trained and English speaking doctors, not to mention complete pre-trip security briefings. AirMed is trusted by the top hospitals in the country as well as the U.S. Department of Defense.

ZVS will promote AirMed Traveler memberships through its website and other customer campaigns. “We are honored that ZVS, clearly one of the most respected services of its kind in the travel industry, chose AirMed as its medical evacuation company of choice,” said AirMed Sales Executive Brandon Bates. “We would like to see an AirMed Traveler card in the wallet of every ZVS customer because nothing could be more important for travelers.”

About the AirMed Air Ambulance Membership Program:

AirMed International is the country’s leading air ambulance service, offering unparalleled medical care and bedside-to-bedside transportation on a worldwide basis. With state-of-the-art medical jets, AirMed is equipped to pick you up from any hospital around the globe and transport you to the hospital of your choice. Along the way, the most experienced and respected medical team in the air will treat you. AirMed is also on call for you, 24/7, with answers to even the simplest medical questions. And an AirMed membership doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. In fact, it could save you one. AirMed Traveler memberships start for as little as $ 95 and could very well be the ‘best kept secret’ in the travel industry. Spread the word. For more information about AirMed’s air ambulance services, contact Sarah Hanley at 205-443-4840 or visit airmed.com.

About ZVS:

ZVS is the most experienced and well-established passport and visa company of its kind in the world. For over 50 years, more than one million travelers have used ZVS to secure necessary documentation to travel to destinations around the globe. With offices located in the U.S. and abroad, ZVS is a leader in the industry and committed to providing the most professional and efficient service for their clients’ travel document needs.

Peace of Mind for Under a Hundred Dollars: Get an Air Ambulance Membership Before You Travel

Posted by on February 6, 2011 1 comment

Peace of Mind for Under a Hundred Dollars: Get an Air Ambulance Membership Before You Travel












Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) April 20, 2008

As the summer travel season approaches, AirMed International (airmed.com), the leader in the air ambulance industry, provides these top reasons why being prepared with medical evacuation coverage is more important than ever.

“A pre-paid air ambulance membership card is the most important item to take with you on your trip,” says AirMed CEO Jeff Tolbert. “We’ve seen it happen countless times– travelers get ill or injured while away from home and end up paying tens of thousands of dollars for a medical flight home. If you are an AirMed member, the cost is zero. So, whether you have an AirMed Traveler card in your wallet or another service, we urge you to be prepared this summer.”

Top Reasons to Purchase an Air Ambulance Membership:

1. You are traveling. If you think an accident won’t happen to you while you’re on vacation, think again. Last year AirMed transported over 2,000 travelers with an average age of 44 years old. Do not chance the financial strain that will follow if you are hospitalized away from home.

2. Guess Who Isn’t Covered? You. Your regular health insurance almost certainly doesn’t have air medical benefits. Most trip insurance will only get you to the nearest facility, not home where you want to be.

3. No pre-existing condition clauses. No co-pays. No deductibles. As long as you’re 150 miles or more from home, an AirMed membership has you covered.

4. Details, Details, Details. AirMed will take care of all details for you–bedside to bedside and on a 24/7 basis. Could you or your travel companion do that in a country where you don’t speak the language?

5. It’s very affordable. AirMed memberships start at just $ 95 for a two-week trip. Compare that with a medical transport flight that can cost in excess of $ 100,000. AirMed offers student memberships, short-term memberships, and the most popular of all–the annual membership.
