I have the latest travel updates, including some red-flag cautions about what may be in some hotel rooms, the continuing fallout from Spirit’s demise, and thefts on the rise at airport lounges. Then, a deeper dive into East Hampton, perhaps the oldest English settlement in New York. Sarah Wetenhall, Owner of The Hedges Inn East Hampton, shares the inn’s 200-year history and her whirlwind restoration alongside its sister property, The Colony, in Palm Beach. Jerry Larsen, Mayor of East Hampton, discusses how the village protects its historic character and small-town feel amid soaring real estate prices. David Netto, Designer of The Hedges Inn, reveals the hotel-inspired touches, from special reading lights to a bathtub-in-the-bedroom suite, that shaped the inn’s transformation. Steve Long, Executive Director of the East Hampton Historical Society, traces the village’s history from Revolutionary War occupation to WWII saboteurs landing on its shores. And for a little summertime entertainment fun, Gary Leff, Founder of ViewFromTheWing.com, joins me to pick the best travel movies ever made, from Sully to Up in the Air and, of course, Planes, Trains and Automobiles and Airplane!, with a few surprises. There’s all this and more on this week’s Peter Greenberg Worldwide.
