Turtles Moved to SeaWorld Orlando to Make Room for Oiled Animals

On Friday, June 25, SeaWorld Orlando received nine endangered Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles that had been impacted by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

The turtles had been receiving care at the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies (IMMS) in Gulfport, Miss. for injuries related to fishing lines and hooks. The animals came to SeaWorld Orlando so the IMMS can make room for other animals in need of treatment due to the oil spill. The turtles at SeaWorld are in stable condition and the goal is to return them back into the wild.

SeaWorld is one of the few organizations with the expertise to tend to the special needs of Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles. They are solitary animals and do not interact with each other and other turtle species. This made their trek to SeaWorld imperative as park aquarists have set up a triage area to accommodate the new patients.

The flight to Orlando was made possible by the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission.

SeaWorld is a global leader in the rescue and rehabilitation of sea turtles. The park’s Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation Team in on call 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.

Name Your Own Price at the Wingate by Wyndham Orlando Airport

In todays tough economy, hotels are experiencing that today’s travelers, whether it business or leisure, are becoming more and more savvy with technology and how to find a great hotel deal. In today’s world, we hear a lot of talk about Opaque Pricing and Opaque Travel Websites, but what is it really? It is in short a non-transparent value offer.

A non-transparent value offer, or pricing opacity, basically means that you can’t see the brand of the product type you are buying. It allows hotels to offer deep discounts, varying with great range from their public prices, without affecting their price positioning and rate integrity. Wikipedia defines Opaque Inventory as follows: a term used to describe the market of selling unsold travel inventory at a discounted price.

It is called ‘opaque’ because the suppliers, in this case the hotel, remains hidden until after the reservation is completed. It allows hotels to reach more price conscious consumers apart from their direct target markets. This type of hotel guest is less concerned with the specifics of the hotels facilities and services. Instead he is driven mainly by price. The best known Opaque Travel Websites are Priceline and Hotwire.

Priceline.com currently offers a “Name Your Own Price” strategy, which allows for consumers to tell them the price they are willing to pay for a hotel room. If they choose the Name Your Own Price option, first they will need to choose the area they would like to stay in. Next, the consumer selects the Hotel Star Level they are interested in. Lastly, simply select the price you are willing to pay. Once this information has been entered, in most cases the consumer will have an answer in 60 seconds or less and once the price is accepted, they will know which hotel they will be staying at for their trip.

Just as consumers have become savvier with this type of booking method to save money, the Wingate by Wyndham Orlando Airport has also picked up on this strategy and took the initiative to offer a similar strategy. The Wingate by Wyndham Orlando Airport has introduced a Name Your Own Price strategy at the property level.

Simply visit Wingate Orlando Airport and enter general information such as Name, Address, Phone and Email. Then enter the requested check-in and check-out dates and supply the hotel with the price you are willing to pay. The hotel will reply back within 24 hours of receiving the request with acceptance or a counter-offer.

According to Spencer Tarplee, General Manager of the Wingate by Wyndham Orlando International Airport, by utilizing this method our potential guest not only receive the perks of being able to meet their travel budget by the Name Your Own Price model, but also by booking directly with the hotel, the guest is able to guarantee room type and smoking preference and submit any special request.” The Wingate by Wyndham Orlando Airport is excited to offer it’s guests in a bad economy not only a tool to use to be able to budget their trip better, but to also guarantee their reservation and have peace of mind before beginning their travels

Google Will Give Freebies – and Ads – to Orlando Airport Travelers

Google is about to set up electronic shop at Orlando International Airport bringing passengers more free Internet services, new smart-phone apps and even free international phone calls from international gate areas.



The Internet search-engine giant and the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority are negotiating a two-year deal that would have Google sponsor the airport's existing free Wi-Fi Internet service and provide a variety of other new services. In return, Google would pay the airport at least $125,000 a year.



According to a proposal outlined to the GOAA board on Wednesday, as many as 50 free Internet–surfing kiosks would be sprinkled around the airport terminal complex, including at the airsides, so people without laptop computers or smart phones could get online.

These ceremonies tend to be lavish affairs with as many as 400 – 500 guests, and authentic Indian cuisine plays an important role in the celebration.

DRIP Presents a New Rock Show "RIFF"

DRIP, an Orlando based performance art company, is currently creating their next big production; a rock show called “RIFF”. Consistent with the trademark audience-centric DRIP experience, this show puts the audience in the middle from the minute guests arrive. The more adventurous audience members may check their shoes at the door and experience the show barefoot. All guests will be in splash zones and refreshing puddles of water throughout the show.

“DRIP’s new show, ‘RIFF’, is a wet, raw, sexy rock ‘n’ roll experience. The sneak peak has a live rock band, contemporary sensual dance, splashing water, black light guitar strings and emotional stories told through moments in time that are caught with a strobe light.” explains DRIP’s CEO and Creative Director, Jessica Mariko.
DRIP has performed alongside acts such as Blue Man Group and Cirque de Soleil and specializes in creating theatrical experiences that seamlessly combine performing and visual arts. The audience is often right in the middle of the highly visual performances, making them very intimate, sensual and full sensory.

For two weekends in June (10-12 and 17-19), the public and booking representatives are invited to DRIP’s design studio (4502 Old Winter Garden Rd #E2, Orlando, FL 32811), a warehouse just 8 minutes from downtown Orlando, to enjoy a 20 minute sneak peak of “RIFF”, followed by a talkback and after party. Capacity is limited.
If you miss DRIP’s “RIFF” showcase in Orlando, you’ll have one more chance to see it in Miami, July 22 and 23 at Eazy Street Gallery (3501 NW 2nd Ave, Miami, FL 33127).

Summertime at the Orlando attractions

Summertime is definitely the high travel season for Orlando, when visitors from around the country and across the globe fill the theme park attractions. And this year, there are several factors that might make Orlando even more attractive to tourists than ever. With gas prices going down, Orlando has become more affordable as a road trip destination for Floridian travelers.

The driving force for Orlando tourism this summer is expected to be The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando's Islands of Adventure. The soft opening is already underway, and the highly anticipated grand opening has been generating a buzz among theme park lovers for a couple of years now, and it will undoubtedly attract fans of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels from both sides of the Atlantic.

Rockin Lake Eola

Consider it an outdoor Happy Hour to cap off a busy work week—this summer on Friday nights from 5:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. Lake Eola Park in downtown Orlando is hosting an after work outdoor party with live nationally known bands as well as local artists. The event is open to the public and visitors can enjoy an assortment of foods as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

In addition to the Rockin Lake Eola event every Friday, visitors can enjoy the Lake Eola fountain, which is finally spurting out water after being zapped out of commission by a lightning strike in August of 2009. The fountain still has an estimated $1 million worth of repairs remaining, but the City of Orlando had to get the water running first to prevent the summer heat from damaging the fountain any further.

To get a full schedule of performers and other special events at Rockin Lake Eola, visit the event website.
