When we think of cruising from L.A. to New York, we imagine a Priscilla: Queen of the Desert adventure along Route 69 66, starting at WeHo's cruising epicenter on Santa Monica Boulevard and ending in Chelsea. But the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles has just announced a partnership that enlightens us to another way to go gay between New York and L.A (apologies for falling into verse)! Details follow.

Nominees for Logo's Travel Awards, which has been renamed and married into the NewNowNext brand, have been announced. While most nominees invite a heated and healthy competition, some leave us scratching our chiseled chins (Portland, Oregon vying for the world's sexiest destination?) So, which travel-related companies and destinations are competing to become the world's gayest?

The shining beacon of tolerance to America's north puts its money where its maple-shaped mouth is in a new study examining the amount Canada's LGBT population spends on travel. Seems the Canadian gays injects an annual average of...

The news had invited a chorus of "you're crazy"'s out of the mouths of friends.

Sure, the idea of me being crazy isn’t far-fetched, but I had at least expected news that I was traveling to Provincetown in the late-season to be met with open minds. My Manhattan friends, who in July of the previous year had overwhelmingly supported a peak-season trip to Provincetown, greeted the announcement with confusion.

Google continues its world domination by making traveling across said world even easier. We'll take it! Earlier this week the tech giant launched a flight-search service that could possibly revolutionize the way we book air travel. Details follow.

It's no secret that the LGBT loves to travel with extreme class, and renting stunning villas in such exotic locales as Anguilla and Turks & Caicos is one of our favorite ways to do just that. To satisfy this age-old need, established website Villa Rentals has streamlined the luxury/exotic accommodations-hunting for its gay web visitors by launching a LGBT-specific portal. Now, finding a private island getaway for thousands of night is (to our money manager's dismay) within a few clicks of our keyboards.

Checking out the rainbow in many vibrant locales is always a fun perk of traveling as a card-carrying LGBT member. Now, thanks to Rainbow Over Richmond, there might be real-life gold for the gay traveler at the end of rainbow!

We're fans of the dark for a few reasons:

1.) The most pleasurable things happen in the dark

1.) It's far better than halogen lamps on our gay genes

But last night's massive power-outage across the Southwest was no fun. Luckily, San Diego (and parts of Arizona and Mexico) has been plugged back in, just in time for a weekend jaunt to one of our favorite So-Cal cities!

With the summer unofficially over and the heat waning, we're already looking for ways we can escape the chill coming soon in autumn and winter. Thankfully, Arizona's luxury desert-based resort The Phoenician is launching a "Pride In The Desert" package that'll provide just the escape we'll be looking for come two months' time. 

We love living by the old adage "When in Rome..." whether traveling or on a staycation (perhaps because Romans enjoyed a hedonistic lifestyle?). Though we think we might've put the saying into action, Projects Abroad's new "Nomad Projects" adventure options really kick the whole "living like the locals" idea into high gear! Details follow.

That damn tropical whatever-you-call-it Lee hit New Orleans with plenty of rain over the weekend, but did you really think that would damper the spirits of those thousands of gays who flock to the Big Easy for Southern Decadence?! Never!

Check out a few photos of the festivities courtesy of Examiner.com's New Orleans celebrity style contributor, Mariah Bond, and see how many unbrellas are obstructing the view of all those shirtless hotties...

AdNews is reporting that social networking site LinkedIn has dropped an advertisement targetting gay travelers based upon what it calls "inappropriate content." 

Robert Christofle, promotor of the cheeky Gay Travel Guide For Tops and Bottoms, said he was informed by e-mail last week that LinkedIn was dropping the advertisement because of inappropriate content or language.

Are we to assume that "inappropriate content" is the term "top" or "bottom"?

AdNews reports that the e-mail from LinkedIn cited common examples of inappropriate content, such as “use of phone numbers, excessive punctuation and unprofessional language” for the reason behind the site's decision to discontinue running the ad. Christofle has appealed...
