FOOD, TSA & Virgin America's Meal?


Karen shared with me some information about what may be allowable and not for what we can bring on the plane. First, don't bother with "DRINKS"... Get that on the plane, but what about other stuff?

Karen and I were talking about what kind of goodies to bring on the plane. Because we have a group leaving on Virgin America from LAX couple of us have decided to bring some goodies to share...Karen at last words spoke about bringing cookies, Jan mentioned about bringing some lemon bars and I am planning to bring my pumpkin-apple cake sliced, wrapped and ready to share. So dessert is covered if you are with the Roger & Diana group Virgin America Flight 290.

Here are a couple of links that Karen referenced to see what she can bring for meal items through security and also what Virgin America offers for food that you can order/pay on board. You will need a credit card to order food and booze. So pull that out with your pen (which you will need to fill out forms before Mexico) for easy access. Thanks Karen for sharing this!

Where do we go tonight?


We have a number of options for dining at the NOW Jade Resort. There are 7 restaurants, a cafe and don't forget 24 hour room service. These options are included in the all-inclusive price, however please check your in-room information once you get there for specific details or change in policy such as whether you need to make reservations or not. It is my understanding that although for the most part the resort is casual there are some restaurants that require a dress code. So please note the dress code requirement for each of the dining establishment for your packing needs.

I have highlighted the restaurants from the Now Jade Resort website.
