What It's Like at the Newly-Redesigned Private Terminal at LAX, PS


Thomas Pallini/Insider
PS, the private terminal at LAX, has been a haven for wealthy travelers looking to avoid the traveling public.
As a result, memberships have been surging as the wealthy want a more private experience.
I visited a newly redesigned suite and saw first-hand what they're paying thousands of dollars for. 
PS opened in 2017 as the Private Suite, a one-of-a-kind private terminal at one of the country's busiest airports. Like most travel and hospitality companies, business was down at the pandemic's peak in 2020 as would-be travelers stayed at home amid lockdowns.

Delta Might Have Lost Goodwill After Georgia Voting Law Controversy

Delta Air Lines and CEO Ed Bastian are facing boycotts in response to Georgia's new controversial voter rights law. 
Bastian initially praised the bill but later came out against its strict measures that limit voting capabilities.
Boycotts from Georgia's business community could seriously impact Delta's bottom line. 
It started with a presidential election.
Georgia quickly found itself in the crosshairs of then-President Donald Trump in the aftermath of the 2020 election. Joe Biden narrowly won the state and its 16 electoral votes, helping bolster his progressive mandate, but Trump did not let the state go to Biden without a fight.

Icelandair is rebuilding its US route network as Iceland opens to vaccinated tourists.
Regular flights to Boston, New York, Seattle, Chicago, Denver, and Washington, D.C. are scheduled for May. 
Americans need only their paper vaccination card to enter the country. 
The summer of vaccinated travel now includes Iceland as a potential destination for Americans. 
Starting April 6, vaccinated travelers from the US will be allowed into Iceland with just their paper vaccination certificate from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It's the first European country to open its doors to Americans with no testing or quarantine required for visitors upon arrival, creating a potential boom for tourism and the country's national airline.

American Airlines is growing and expanding 10 routes from Austin, Texas, just south of its Dallas hub.
The point-to-point routes completely bypass American's hubs and offer more convenient non-stop options. 
Major corporations have moved to Austin in recent years as part of an exodus from California.
American Airlines is preparing for the summer of vaccinated travel and has its sights set on Texas, but not its usual Dallas hub.
Austin, Texas is receiving 10 routes this spring and summer aimed at increased leisure flyers and the hopeful return of business travel. The Texas capital city has been the preferred destination of technology exodus from California and Silicon Valley, including Elon Musk's Tesla, opening a new market of well-to-do leisure and business travelers for airlines.
