Auction Action

by Kate Gallagher

Mar 8, 2010

I attended the Villa Joseph Marie High School annual charity auction on Saturday night, and it reminded me of the great values on offer in Global Traveler‘s online auction to benefit the Mentor Foundation. At the Villa auction, GT donated a trip to China, which was a big hit, as were other travel-related vacations.

Global Traveler‘s auction benefits a great cause that helps children around the world avoid getting involved with drugs and alcohol, which is one of the largest issues facing our children. While your bids will help children, you and your company will benefit from great deals and offers. Some of the selected items for bid include:

– Two business-class tickets on American Airlines

– Two business-class tickets on Asiana Airlines

– Two business-class tickets on Singapore Airlines

– Four business-class tickets on British Airways

– Two business-class tickets on  Emirates

So get online and bid, take a fabulous trip and help Mentor!

— Fran Gallagher, publisher and CEO

Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess

Japan is a destination that rewards repeat visits because no two regions — or seasons —  feel quite the same. One moment, you’re wandering through centuries-old geisha districts in Kanazawa. The next, you’re watching neon reflections dance across Tokyo streets long after midnight.
