Virgin America will have nonstop flights from Toronto to LAX and San Francisco

We have a lot of Canadian guests year round at our resort. Although most come from British Columbia and Alberta, we still have a sizable number of guests from Ontario that stay with us.

All of the guests from Ontario say they wish it was easier to fly here. Now Virgin America will be offering 1 nonstop a day from Toronto into LAX.

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is 120 miles from Palm Springs. Non rush hour, it is about a 2 1/2 hour drive into Palm Springs. Almost all of our guests from Europe, Australia, and Asia fly into LAX and drive here. I would also estimate about 10% of our American guests (especially those on the east coast) fly into LAX and drive here.

Here's the info:

"VIRGIN AMERICA LAUNCHES 2010 GROWTH PLANS; SUMMER EXPANSION TO ORLANDO, TORONTO
Airline Grows Fleet; Announces New Service to Orlando and Intent to Serve Toronto This Summer

San Francisco – March 18, 2010 – Virgin America today announces network expansion plans that position the new airline for strong growth in 2010 and beyond. Today,...the airline announces its intent to serve Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) with daily flights from both LAX and SFO as early as June 2010. Coming on the heels of the Company’s new Department of Transportation-approved ownership structure, Virgin America is poised for major growth in 2010 – with six additional aircraft entering its fleet this year and three additional aircraft scheduled for the first quarter of 2011. By this time next year, the airline’s fleet will have grown by almost one-third.,,...

Also today, Virgin America will file an application with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) seeking authority to fly from the United States to Canada. If approved, this would become the airline’s first international destination. As set forth in the application, Virgin America, subject to receipt of all operating authority, plans to begin service as early as June 2010..."

We have always found the easier it is for guests to come to Palm Springs, the more often they come. For instance, once V Australia started flying into LAX, our Australian business has really grown.

I will expect our business from Ontario province will start growing even more now.

Now is the perfect time for a fun, romantic, unique vacation experience.

A nudist park in Ontario, Canada wil be closing

Glen Echo, the oldest nudist campground in Ontario, Canada will be closing. The owners could not find a buyer.

Now descriptions of this nudist campground makes it sound rustic. I have never been there. Maybe it deserves to be sold off to non nudists. I don't know.

Yet, this is a disturbing trend for American and Canadian nudism.

Who's to blame? I put the blame squarely on many American and Canadian nudists.

Every time an American or Canadian nudist goes to Mexico or the Caribbean and stays at a corporate owned, non nudist owned resort, beach or hotel, that is taking money away that could grow the nudist industry in the US and Canada.

Paradise Lakes in Tampa, Florida decided they had to go way more risque because they felt nudists were not supporting them enough.

I don't understand why American and Canadian nudists way overpay to stay at the Caribbean and Mexican naked places. I've been to most of them once before we started Terra Cotta Inn. They are nothing special. They were way, way overpriced and we never went back to them. And we have been to some of the newer ones in Mexico and the Caribbean since we started Terra Cotta. These places are still way too overpriced for what you get.

Now if you want to support a great nudist place like Sorobon, in Bonaire then you should. That place is owned by nudists and they charge a fair price. But all other nudist places in the Caribbean are way overpriced for what they deliver in my opinion.

Finally due to the recession nudists are realizing they have been had for years at these non nudist owned places in Mexico and the Caribbean.

Nudists sometimes spending more then a $100/night extra to stay on the nude side instead of the prude side at some of these places. Worse, they are supposedly getting tolerable meals as they are all inclusives. But on the nude side, they only have hamburger shacks if you want to eat nude. What a rip off.

Could you imagine an American nudist resort treating their guests this badly? Never. But, lots of nudists pony up $5000-$8000 for a week at these places and complain that they say we can't find enough good places like Terra Cotta Inn in the US to stay at. If they stayed here more and didn't go to Mexico or the Caribbean, we could open a second place. But, as long as nudists flock like lemmings to to Mexico and the Caribbean, I am not going to over expand.

My business is probably less then 20% AANR members and less than 5% TNS members. If it wasn't for us converting first timers into loving nude sunbathing at our resort, we would be belly up.

Nudists have to realize they are their own worst enemies. Stop giving your money to big greedy corporations in Mexico and the Caribbean who laugh at you because they can over charge you.

Start supporting American and Canadian nudism! Keep the vacation money home.

Here's the story:

"Left out in the cold
Naturist park’s closing leaves nudists with limited options

By this time next month, about 150 nudists will be cast out of the province’s oldest naturist retreat because their 100 acres of Eden is being sold to a private owner...

“We’re all very disappointed. You suddenly lose your second home, our home away from home.”

The nudist movement in Ontario had its genesis with Glen Echo Park, which was founded in 1955 as a co-operative. Most in the community got their first taste of naturism at the site... In its mid-1990s heyday, as many as 350 families were members...

Glen Echo’s owners, Mary and Edward Todorowsky, are approaching 80. Off and on Since 2005, they’ve been trying to sell to someone within the nudist community, who would keep their sanctuary open.

But after fours years of trying and several failed offers, the Todorowskys gave up...

“Losing a club is not good for naturism,” said Stéphane Deschênes, who owns Bare Oaks...

Hoping to attract a younger crowd, both resorts are moving away from the old “roughing it with nature” mentality by installing plumbing, electricity hook-ups for trailers and satellite television.

“We just added WiFi,” said Four Seasons manager Tom Landers. “I’ve been talking to the owner of Bare Oaks and both of us feel that this market is in its infancy.”

For the full story click here

Now as I said, the grounds sound very rustic at Glen Echo, so it may have been the correct thing to do to let it go textile. But, if nudists don't stop going to Mexico and the Caribbean, then one day they will wake up and find that there are NO nice nudist places left for them to go to without going out of country. And they will only have themselves to blame.

Now if you want to vacation at one of the best clothing optional resorts in the world according to tripadvisor.com and AOL.com, then give us The Terra Cotta Inn clothing optional resort and spa a call at 800-786-6938.

LAX one of top 5 on time airports in US

People use many different airports when vacationing at our resort, The Terra Cotta Inn clothing optional resort and spa located in sunny Palm Springs, California.

They fly into Palm Springs (PSP) only 5 miles away, Ontario, California airport (70 miles away), Orange County (95 miles away), Long Beach (120 miles away), Burbank (110miles away), Los Angeles (LAX) 120 miles away, San Diego (140 miles away), Las Vegas (280 miles away), Phoenix (280 miles away), and San Francisco (480 miles away).

One nice thing I tell people about LAX is you can get non stops from most cities in the US.

Now the Bureau of Transportation says LAX is one of the top 5 on time airports in the US. That means a lot on your vacation. What's one of the worst? Miami! It is the 3rd worst in the US.

We have had many guests who have gone to the Caribbean and they were forced to stay overnight in Miami because they missed connecting flights. Who wants to lose an extra 24 hours of vacation just because the airport has so many delays? This is one of the many reasons we find nudists are no longer going to the Caribbean and booking their vacations now with us in sunny Palm Springs.

Here's the story:

America’s Best and Worst Airports 2009


What are the odds your next flight will be delayed? Depends on what airport you’re flying from

We all know the drill: you show up at the airport with plenty of time to spare, only to discover that your flight’s been delayed and now you have hours to kill. Or worse yet, you’ve already boarded your flight and now you’re stuck on the tarmac.

Where is this most likely to happen? You can’t eliminate delays, of course, but you can play the odds—some airports have better track records than others (as do some airlines, which is why we rank the best and worst airlines for on-time performance). So, as we do every year, Travel + Leisure gathered statistics from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics on flights that departed more than 15 minutes behind schedule (in this instance from April 1, 2008, to March 31, 2009) and found out the best—and worst—airports for on-time performance.

...So consult this list before you book your next ticket: if you can fly out of an alternate airport like Midway, the odds are better that you’ll arrive at your destination on time. And these days, on-time arrivals are just about the only thing airlines aren’t charging extra for.
