Dee - then and now - wishing on a beach



When I was a rookie travel agency owner, I was often called upon by the local airline representatives. Braniff Airlines's rep in Denver became a friend, and the woman from Pan American Airways helped me with my first around-the-globe fare.

I was in Key West recently, wearing my "Las Flight Out" t-shirt referring to Pan Am pulling out of that market. The first Pan Am flight ever was from Key West to Havana in 1927. The Pan Am city booking office is now a celebrity-owned restaurant - but their sign still hangs proudly.
