Located inside what was the terminal for the now defunct Trans World Airlines, the TWA Hotel at JFK International Airport in New York City is something really special. The terminal is a 1962 masterpiece by Eero Saarinen & Associates that was transformed into a hotel in 2019. The result is a celebration of mid-century architecture, the golden age of air travel, and a time when the experience of flying was notably more exclusive.

Located in Disney Village outside of Disneyland Paris in France, PanoraMagique is a tethered hot air balloon that provides 360 degree views of the theme parks and surrounding countryside. While expensive, the experience of floating above everything is memorable and does provide the expected photo-ops. Here are a few visuals from a ride on the PanoraMagique.
