My last-ever photo from the tarmac at the old Bob Hope terminal at what’s now called the Hollywood-Burbank airport. The brand-new terminal has debuted, and it looks like they still won’t use jetways, so we can still have the more photo-worthy outdoor boarding experience! #tarmac #frequentflyer #frequenttraveller #airportselfie #travelselfie taken in Hollywood Burbank Airport - BUR by @departure_level

Trying unsuccessfully for a Hollywood pin-up vibe in West Hollywood. Can you guess how much time I spend in the sun? We’ve stayed at multiple hotels and Airbnb rentals in the West Hollywood area, and the Ramada Plaza is one of the best values — great location on Santa Monica, good wifi, clean and decently attractive rooms, a swimming pool and rates that are significantly less than other hotels and short-term rentals. #gayguy #westhollywood #gaytravel #gaymature #gaytraveler taken in West Hollywood, California by @departure_level

Since today is National Coming Out Day, I’m sharing a photo of my wonderful mother, Eunice Chesnut. I was so nervous I stood in the kitchen when I told her I was gay — even though she was on the couch in the living room! If you knew my mother and know me, you already know that it all worked out well in the long run. 🙂 Being able to be who you are and feel safe and comfortable at home, work and in the world in general is so important. I wrote about my dramatic coming-out in my book “Prepare for Departure: Notes on a Single Mother, a Misfit Son, Inevitable Mortality & the Enduring Allure of Frequent Flyer Miles.” Look for “Prepare for Departure” on your favorite online bookstore, or click the link in my profile. #comingout #comingoutday #gayhistory #lgbtqhistory #queerhistory taken in New York, New York by @departure_level

A night out in West Hollywood with my new — vintage — Trans Caribbean Airways bag. TCA, which was based in New York City but with a hub in San Juan, Puerto Rico, flew between 1945 and 1971, when it was acquired by American Airlines. Thanks @bklynn_0731 for finding this and @planetapabon for the gift! #airline #airlines #airtravel #travelwriter #travelwriting taken in West Hollywood, California by @departure_level
