Tahiti and Bora Bora Pre-Trip I have been seeing the construction over the past few years of the new Four Season's Resort and Spa in Bora Bora. Last year I was at the St. Regis and was intrigued how the Four Season's stacked up against the competition in the area. Because the Nomade Yachting (Bora Bora Cruises) Tia Moana Superyacht was in drydock since January 5th, I decide on a short week stay in Le Tahaa and the Four Season's in Bora Bora. After my last bad experience with Expedia (they sent me paper tickets so that changing or exchanging flights was a major hassle), I now know better to book with the airlines directly and use their E-tickets.
Travel Day By the end of this long travel day, we were both exhausted. All of the flights were on time. We lucked out in getting an available (for purchase) upgrade to business class on Air Tahiti Nui from LAX to PPT. For long overseas flights, it's nice to stretch out. After a nice long dinner, I napped most of the way, with occasional intermissions with my iPod (on my iPhone). The long flight allows you to clear your head and anticipate the vacation ahead. It's always exciting to go to the tropics in the middle of the winter. Leaving in -15 F temperatures really made this transition dramatic. It was 80 deg F when we landed in Tahiti. The fresh Tiara scented humid tropical air greets you like in no other place in the world.
