Coachella

Escape to the desert of California for one of the most famous music festivals in the country. Coachella’s diverse lineup typically includes established artists, up-and-coming performers, and even reunions from past groups.

The last event, held in 2019, featured Childish Gambino and Ariana Grande as headliners. 

Stagecoach

Indio, CA – April 29 – May 1, 2022

California’s favorite country music festival returns in 2022 with an all-star lineup that includes Carrie Underwood, Thomas Rhett, and Luke Combs. Aside from three days of amazing performances, attendees of Stagecoach can also enjoy camping, a vintage marketplace, BBQ vendors, and more.

Carolina Country Music Festival

Myrtle Beach, SC – June 9-12, 2022

Carolina County Music Festival gathers some of country music’s greatest artists in Myrtle Beach for one of the genre’s biggest parties — and certainly one of the most fun ways to kick off your summer.

Lollapalooza

Grant Park, Chicago, IL – Dates TBD

With four jam-packed days of concerts, Lollapalooza offers something for everyone, whether you’re a fan of pop, rock, hip hop, EDM, and more.

5 Fun Facts about the Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam

Here’s what to expect during this summer concert series.

With three days packed full of sun, fun, and country music’s hottest artists, the Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam in Panama City Beach, Florida, is one of the best ways to spend Labor Day Weekend.

Superior Executive Services is offering exclusive VIP hospitality suites for a limited number of corporate groups. Keep reading to learn more fun facts about this spectacular show at Frank Brown Park near Florida’s sugar-sand beaches.

1. The Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam debuted in September 2013.

Thousands of people attended the inaugural three-day festival. Six stages featured legendary artists such as Toby Keith, Trace Adkins, and Charlie Daniels Band. In the following year, performers would include Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, Florida Georgia Line, Jason Aldean, and so many more.

2. This year saw two Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam festivals! 

The COVID-19 pandemic forced festival organizers to postpone last year’s event, but rather than cancel entirely or wait until September, producers invited fans to jam in June 2021 as well. More than 70,000 people from all 50 states and 14 countries came to watch Lynard Skynard, Braid Paisley, Luke Bryan, and others.

3. The Labor Day lineup features the most exciting acts in country and southern rock music today.

Who’s scheduled to perform in Panama Beach? The list goes on and on! Headliners include Chris Stapleton, Old Dominion, and Brooks & Dunn. You’ll also see the likes of Gary Allan, Chris Janson, Scotty McCreery, Randy Rogers Band, Frankie Ballard, Tracy Lawrence, and more.

4. The festival showcases rising new talent, too.

Each year, the Pepsi Southern Original Contest winner earns the chance to perform for energetic crowds. Ten finalists will compete for the title just before the festival kicks off, and the champion will perform during Sunday’s lineup.

5. Special guests can celebrate in style with Superior.

Superior has partnered with Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam to offer 10 exclusive corporate hospitality VIP suites to our select clientele for the September 2021 event. Packages include company branding, a private bar with unlimited drinks, private air-conditioned bathrooms, lounge seating, and more.

Ready to book your corporate VIP suite at the Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam? Call us today at 608-665-9070 or go online to get started.

Our event travel transportation guide can help you decide how to get to and around your trip to a high-profile event.

Superior’s Event Travel Transportation Guide

Have the best event travel transportation experience possible with the help of this guide.

Our event travel transportation guide can help you decide how to get to and around your trip to a high-profile event.

You’ve heard the phrase “getting there is half the fun,” but that might not hold true if you’re worried about the hassles of hailing a cab or dealing with flight delays. How you get to where you’re going — including flights and ground transportation — matter almost as much as your dream destination.

Superior Executive Services is dedicated to working closely with you on all aspects of your trip planning process, including transportation. We assembled this Event Travel Transportation Guide to help ensure your luxury travel experience is as enjoyable as possible.

Air travel tips

You have a few choices when arranging air travel. Flying first-class on a commercial airline flight will save you some money and offers amenities like priority boarding, more legroom, and perks like beverage and meal service. However, you have less flexibility in scheduling and may have to arrange additional transportation if your point of departure or destination is not near a major metropolitan airport.

Private jets or charter flights offer far more privacy and convenience than commercial flights, as well as the opportunity to tailor your flight, such as catered meal preferences or departing from smaller, more convenient airports. Private flights are also more accommodating, from luggage limits to accessibility for those with mobility challenges. 

The luxury of a chartered air flight comes at a much higher cost, of course, especially when flying internationally. But the price per passenger will be lower when traveling as a large group versus flying solo, and for many, the time, reliability, and customization are worth more than the cost of the flight.

On the ground

The decision whether to rent a car and drive yourself around or hire a private, dedicated driver will depend on the type of luxury travel experience you’re looking for.

When you rent a car, you’re free to explore at your own pace, and this option may help keep costs down (unless, of course, your dream vacation includes renting an exotic car to get around in). However, you’ll also have to think about things like parking, directions, and traffic.

Superior can arrange for a dedicated driver as part of your premier travel package. We contract with trusted, local drivers who know the area well, including the fastest routes, how to avoid traffic (especially event-related traffic), and the most convenient drop-off and pick-up points at your events. This allows you to stop worrying about directions and focus on enjoying your time away from home.

Try new experiences

If you’re not in a hurry and are looking for an adventure, consider creative transportation options during your vacation stay. Superior can help you explore options like a scenic yacht charter, bicycles, trolleys, or even a private helicopter flight to an event like the Catalina Wine Mixer, depending on your itinerary and accommodations.

COVID considerations

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we travel. Current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations vary for fully vaccinated and unvaccinated people, as well as whether you’re planning to travel within the United States or internationally.

Wearing a mask over your nose and mouth is still required on most planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation traveling into, within, or out of the United States and in U.S. transportation hubs such as airports and stations. No matter how you get where you’re going, be sure to follow all state and local recommendations and requirements, including mask-wearing and social distancing.

Guidance may evolve as new public health considerations are taken into effect; before you depart, check with the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as local regulations at your final destination.

Superior Executive Services knows convenient, comfortable transportation is essential to ensuring your luxury travel experience is hassle-free. That’s why we’ll work closely with you to arrange ground transportation and answer any questions you might have about additional transportation needs.

If you’re not into flying, other options include sailing on the sleek, high-speed Catalina Express or hopping on board the Catalina Flyer, the largest passenger catamaran on the coast.

What you’ll do

Need a break from the official activities? Take a sun-drenched stroll along the warm sandy beach or cool down in the crystal-clear waters of Descanso Cove. Showers and changing rooms are offered. Kayaks and snorkel gear are also available for rent.

What you’ll eat and drink

More than 30 of the West Coast’s top wineries are on hand with samples of their finest vintages. Superior travel packages may include complimentary VIP wine tasting tickets throughout the weekend. Attendees will also be able to sample hors d’oeuvres throughout the duration of the event.

Outside of the mixer, be sure to check out Catalina Island’s eclectic lineup of restaurants and cafes, including several with stunning ocean-front views.

Where you’ll stay

The freshly renovated Hotel Atwater combines historic charm with modern comfort and convenience. Located just south of the beach club off of Avalon Bay, Hotel Atwater offers an exceptional guest experience and world-famous hospitality, including a split of sparkling wine as a way to say “welcome to Catalina.”

8 Things to Know About Post-COVID Travel

Plan for travel after COVID-19 with these tips.

 

After a year of mostly staying close to home, we’re all excited to get back out and travel again. How we travel after COVID-19 will likely look a little different for the foreseeable future, however, so we’ve assembled some helpful travel tips for post-COVID travel.

  1. Book early
  2. Pack prepared
  3. Consider travel insurance
  4. Arrive early at the airport
  5. Hire a local driver
  6. Know what to expect at events
  7. Stay up to date on CDC recommendations
  8. Book with a trusted travel company

Let’s dive into these helpful tips and recommendations for post-COVID travel!

Book early

To maintain safe social distancing, there may be less capacity — and therefore less availability — for many elements of travel, such as airline flights and event tickets. Superior recommends making reservations at least six to eight months in advance to secure exactly the memorable getaway you have in mind.

(Of course, if there’s a summer or fall event you have in mind — such as the Catalina Wine Mixer in September 2021 or the US Grand Prix in October 2021 — let us know, and we’ll do everything we can to get you there in style!)

Pack prepared

Some public and private spaces still require masks, such as planes, trains, and other forms of transportation, as well as some businesses and event spaces. If you are fully vaccinated, you may also want to bring with you proof of vaccination if the event you’re attending requires it. (Keep this in the same safe space you’d keep other valuable documentation, such as your passport.)

Consider travel insurance

Whether or not you decide to purchase travel insurance may change trip to trip and depend on factors such as where you’re going or the cost of your journey. Last year, many insurers declined to cover claims related to COVID-19, but that’s starting to change. Here’s what to look for when seeking a travel insurance policy to cover coronavirus-related cancellations.

Arrive early at the airport

Starting in May, many commercial airlines resumed selling middle seats and reimplementing change fees on some tickets. At the airport, however, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) still has in place many of the same safety precautions to protect travelers and staff.

Give yourself plenty of time to get to your gate. Many airports encourage online check-in and self-service kiosks, which could create a bit of a bottleneck during busy times. To keep lines moving, the TSA asks that you remove belts and personal items from your pockets such as wallets, keys, or phones and place them in your carry-on bag before entering the checkpoint queue. In addition, masks are required, and the TSA encourages all travelers to maintain six feet of social distance and practice good hand hygiene. The TSA continues to adjust its security operations in light of COVID-19; check their website before your trip for the latest news.

Hire a local driver

Rental cars are in high demand these days, and prices are skyrocketing. A better alternative? Superior can arrange for a reliable, dedicated driver as part of your travel package. Plus, you won’t have to worry about finding parking or getting stuck in traffic.

Know what to expect at events

Every venue will have different safety measures and expectations in place, of course. Some standard precautions to look for may include staggered seating, multiple entrances, mask requirements, and touchless ticket and payment systems. You may also need to account for additional wait times to enter if venues check vaccination status or temperatures, for example.

Stay up to date on CDC recommendations

Health and safety guidance continues to evolve as more people are vaccinated. This may impact recommendations on things like face coverings, social distancing, testing, and self-quarantining. Before you depart, check with the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local regulations at your destination.

Book with a trusted travel company

When you reserve a luxury travel package from Superior Executive Services, you can count on our decades of combined industry expertise and outstanding customer service should any adjustments or cancelations need to be made.

We’re now offering a wide range of travel packages in 2021 and 2022! Explore our Superior experiences online anytime and contact us online or at 608.665.9070 with questions or to get started with your reservations.

Pebble Beach

Guide for First-Time Attendees of Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance

Make the most out of your Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance travel package this summer.

Use these tips if you’re booking one of our Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance travel packages.

The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance Car Show truly is a one-of-a-kind event. Concours d’Elegance is French for “a completion of elegance.” The show began in 1950 and was modeled on early exhibitions that were popular in Paris and across Europe in the 1920s and 1930s. At first, many awards were presented to the latest new model cars, but the event has since transformed into a showcase for vintage performance vehicles.

Superior Executive Services offers luxury Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance travel packages that include exclusive accommodations and VIP access. We’ve constructed this insider’s guide to the show for first-time attendees to maximize your time on the California coast.

What to expect

The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance is the highlight of Pebble Beach Automotive Week. Fans gather from around the world to cheer for their favorites on the 18th fairway of the Pebble Beach Golf Links — the only day of the year Pebble Beach is closed to golfers!

The field officially opens at 10:30 a.m., and award presentations begin in the afternoon. Judging is based on style, technical merit, and history, as well as the originality and accuracy of their restoration or preservation.

What to see

It’s nearly impossible to see everything, so take your time and let your instinct and taste guide you. Some highlights include the Concept Lawn, where out-of-this-world designs are often unveiled to the public for the first time ever, and the Ferraris on the first fairway. Be sure to pick up a guide to learn the rich stories behind each automobile.

When booking through Superior, you may add VIP tickets to the outdoor Patrons Patio Winner Circle, adjacent to the Awards Ramp, where you can unwind and watch the show winners parade past. Entrance to this luxury immersion experience includes a gourmet luncheon, all-day hosted beverage service, and more.

What to wear

Of course, you’ll want to check the forecast before you depart for California. Average conditions in late summer are dry and warm; consider dressing in layers for cool mornings and sunny afternoons, and don’t forget sunscreen, sunglasses, and perhaps a fancy hat. Typical attire ranges from resort casual to dressy (although some spectators have been known to arrive in period costume!). Consider comfort and convenience as you may be doing a moderate amount of walking as you stroll around and admire the automobiles.

What to do while you’re in Monterey

Pebble Beach is home to some of the most magnificent championship golf courses in the world. Superior can book you a tee time at Spyglass Hill, with its majestic dual views of the ocean and forest, or among the sweeping dunes of Spanish Bay, ranked among the best public courses in the country.

Superior’s luxury travel packages can also include tickets to the Concorso Italiano. The world’s largest luxury and exotic Italian car show is famous for its collection of Italian automobiles and motorcycles. The event also features Italian food and wine, art, musical performances, fashion, and interviews with legendary automotive designers and collectors.

Other enjoyable attractions in the Monterey area include visiting Old Fisherman’s Wharf, where you can catch a whale-watching tour or kayaking excursion; catching breathtaking views of the ocean as you cruise along the Pacific coastline on 17-Mile Drive; or taking a day trip to Carmel-by-the-Sea to peruse upscale art galleries, designer shops, and gourmet restaurants.

Monterey County is one of the largest wine-growing and producing regions in California — a great reason to explore one of the many local wineries and tasting rooms. There are also plenty of upscale dining options, especially if you’re looking to sample fresh, sustainable seafood.

Superior Executive Services is excited to offer exclusive 2021 and 2022 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance travel packages. Book your experience today by calling us at 608.665.9070 or contacting us online.

The Ultimate Guide to Travel Insurance

Find out if travel insurance is really worth the extra cost.

Our guide to travel insurance covers what it is, what it costs, and when you should purchase it.

Vacations are meant to be relaxing. But what if something goes wrong?

Travel insurance can help manage these disruptions. But what exactly is travel insurance? What does it cover? Is it worth the cost? We want you to be prepared and feel confident about your decision whether you’re booking a luxury travel experience on your own or with Superior Executive Services. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to travel insurance.

What is travel insurance?

Travel insurance is a type of insurance meant to protect against losses you might experience while traveling. Depending on the provider and policy, coverage could include things like:

  • Damage to personal property
  • Damage to rental equipment
  • Emergency medical services and transportation
  • Logistics, such as replacing a lost passport or re-booking a canceled flight
  • Baggage delays, loss, or damage

Policies may also cover some or all your costs if your trip is interrupted or you have to cancel your trip before you depart. Some providers have restrictions on acceptable reasons to cancel a trip or end a trip early, such as illness, a death in the family, or severe weather.

Each travel insurance policy is different, so it’s essential to understand what is—and is not—covered before purchasing coverage. Examples of expenses that are not typically covered include pre-existing medical conditions, pregnancy and childbirth, risky sports and activities, or natural disasters and health crises that are known about before you purchase a policy. Most travel insurance companies declined coverage for interruptions caused by COVID-19 for any policies purchased after the pandemic became “known” on January 22, 2020.

If you want the most flexibility, you may want to add a type of supplemental travel insurance coverage called “Cancel for Any Reason” (CFAR). This is an upgrade to a standard policy that will cost more but guarantees a partial refund, no matter the reason.

How do I purchase insurance, and how much will it cost?

When you book a trip through Superior Executive Services, we can help you arrange coverage if you want it. If you’re making reservations on your own, you’ll find you often have the option to purchase travel insurance through online booking sites, airlines, and cruise lines. Standalone travel insurance companies also offer policies through their websites.

The cost of travel insurance will depend on the specifics of your trip. Rates usually factor in who is traveling (the number of travelers and their ages), where you’re going, and for how long, as well as the total cost of your trip. One recent survey found the average travel insurance policy costs $111.

How to decide if travel insurance is worth it

One way experts suggest you evaluate the pros and cons is to consider whether you can afford to lose out on the entire cost of the trip. For example, insurance costs may feel unnecessary if you’re booking discounted airline flights or hotel stays.

There are some other key questions to ask yourself when considering purchasing a travel insurance policy.

Is your trip refundable? Is there a penalty or fee for cancellation?
If your reservations can be canceled or postponed without penalty, coverage probably isn’t necessary.

Does your existing health insurance cover you where you are going?
Check with your health insurance provider to confirm whether they cover illness or injury outside your home region. If you’re covered by a U.S.-based provider and traveling within the U.S., additional travel medical coverage may be redundant.

Is there a potential for severe weather or natural disasters?
If an unexpected natural disaster could interrupt your trip, travel insurance may protect you against cancellations or interruptions, as well as emergency evacuation. But remember: if you purchase a policy after the event is known and poses a risk (for example, once a storm is named or after a volcano shows signs that it may erupt soon), you likely will not be covered.

Does your credit card provide travel coverage?
Some credit cards include travel insurance coverage at no additional cost for things like lost or delayed luggage, delayed or canceled flights, or rental car damage. Of course, coverage may not be as broad as you’d like; credit card perks usually do not cover all medical expenses or lost items. Review the specific terms of your travel insurance benefits as part of your decision-making process.

The bottom line: the decision to purchase travel insurance is personal, and you may want or need it for some trips and not for others. If you’re not sure, reach out to us!

With nearly 45 years of combined experience in the travel, hospitality, and sports industries, Superior Executive Services will help you consider all the factors — which event you’re traveling to, your budget, and any relevant public health guidelines and recommendations.

Memorable destinations

Superior offers dozens of carefully designed luxury travel packages to a variety of high-profile sporting events plus music, film, food, and wine festivals. However, if you have a different destination or event in mind, our team of experts can work to craft a genuinely distinctive experience.

Air travel and transportation

How you travel to your event is your decision. We can schedule commercial flights that are most convenient for you or arrange for private chartered flights for you and your group for enhanced luxury, privacy, and flexibility. We can also coordinate a driver to take you to and from the airport and hire first-rate private transportation to guide you safely around your destination in style.

VIP access

Live it up behind the velvet rope where few other fans go. Superior can secure tickets to elite VIP parties, concerts, and receptions thrown by event organizers, such as Kentucky Derby kick-off parties or the Carolina Country Music Festival kick-off concert, as well as any other performances or festivities happening while you’re in town.

Exciting extras

Want to get out on the greens and take a swing on a new course? Superior can book you a round of golf at famous local courses wherever you might be attending an event — think Spyglass Hill or Spanish Bay while you’re in Pebble Beach for the Concours d’Elegance.

Visiting Wisconsin for our Golf Swing Experience? We can book tickets for you and your group to attend a Milwaukee Bucks, Green Bay Packers, or Milwaukee Brewers game if they’re playing at home.

Ask us to arrange a chartered fishing trip on the ocean or the Great Lakes, a visit to the Harley Davidson factory in Milwaukee, or a tour of famous distilleries in Kentucky. The possibilities are endless!

Exclusive services

Dining out and sampling local specialties is one of the most enjoyable aspects of travel. Superior can customize your luxury travel package to include reservations at fine dining establishments or trendy new eateries.

If you’re looking for a more intimate experience, we can arrange for bartenders and a private chef to cook for your group. We also have experience booking comedians and musicians to entertain your private party.

Ready to just relax and refresh before or after a big event? We can also schedule spa services, private fitness classes, and more.

A personal touch

Whatever else you can think of, we’ll make it happen, from special snacks and beverages on your private charter flight to welcome gifts waiting for you and your guests at your deluxe accommodations. We’ll work tirelessly to make this a true one-of-a-kind luxury travel experience.
