Excuse me, dahrlings, but...

Heeere's Robbie!

We always knew Robbie’d come back, didn’t we Pumpkins? Some men just have ITC travel in their packages.

And it’s not like that can be cured with penicillin – no matter how many times you’ve jammed your cockpit into a price press, you come out swinging. And I say that lovingly - I do, dahrlings. I admire men with inoperable passions. They can take a couple of seats to Cuba and turn them into a travel conglomerate faster than you can say onboard bistro service.

Of course many of you remember Robbie Goldberg as the founder of Conquest Vacations. Others remember him as the man who resurrected Herman’s Hermits. But what you should also remind yourselves of is that he slipped out of Conquest 1 ½ years before things went kablooey. It's so important to know when to pull out, dahrlings.


The CanJet folks are obviously big believers in the golden school of tour operating. You find an untapped opportunity, you whip out your calculator, strike a bargain, and pump like mad under the radar. (Triggers fond memories of brain-storming on the res floor with the payload boys - someone inevitably came up with an untapped opportunity.) Golden times, indeed.
