Billions of Chinese are crisscrossing the country as we speak, Pumpkins. Planes, trains, automobiles and cruise lines are adding capacity as fast as you can say Gung Hey Fat Choi!
The New Year celebrations in China last 40 days. Can you imagine, Pumpkins? 40 days of intensive travel sales for a couple of hundred thousand clients would pay for my mortgage, my car, my taxes and my Grey Goose (not to mention an unmentionable or two – I can’t pronounce his name anyway). The only down side is that it’s the Year of the Horse. Apparently it’s made of wood – which is flammable.
Predictions include important issues such as world strife (definitely not good for travel), success for media companies (good for OpenJaw) and more trouble for the Biebs (who really cares what a 19-year-old, over coddled brat from Stratford smokes?). As nana Gabbalot used to tell me, good looks and talent are not a free ticket to promiscuity. Something like that. Nothing a horse whipping wouldn’t fix.
As for the massive migration at this time of year, I think Rouge would do well to put some of those aircraft into China rather than crowding the Caribbean in summer. IMHO
