The next time you are looking for something special to do for Saturday date night, you need to hop aboard Pan Am flight 001 for an evening of air travel you will never forget. And guess what? Your feet won’t even leave the ground. Sounds nuts, right? Well maybe just a little bag of complimentary roasted peanuts.
