Inspiration & Empowerment
Travel Segment /Sundays at 9AM PST on GMAZ
“Now Boarding”
At the height of the pandemic, Jared launched a travel segment on “Good Morning, Arizona,” called "Now Boarding."
It's designed to empower people to explore the state, the country, and other parts of the world (with pandemic precautions taken).
Taking into account different budgets and interests, he walks viewers through the process of putting together different trips. Immediately, viewers began emailing and stopping Jared in stores, restaurants, and on hiking trails to talk about their travels.
In addition to his television segment on Sundays, his Instagram story contains a series of top flight deals of the week.
“NOW BOARDING”
01. Travel Deals
I tell people all the time: You don’t have to spend a fortune to travel! When this segment started, I set a goal of finding weeklong trips for $1,000 or less. Sure, it’s a treat to splurge … but I’m focused on helping people with a wide range of budgets feel inspired to explore the world.
02. Where to Stay
The TV segment spends time weighing whether to stay in a hotel, or rent from an Airbnb or VRBO. It’s really different in each city. I’ve seen the best of the best… and the worst of the worst in cities around the world. I’ll show you what to watch out for, and which neighborhoods are best for visitors.
03. Sites to See
While the segment hits all the “hot spots” in a city, I also encourage people to go “off the beaten path,” and explore sites that are lesser-known. On all of my trips, I get out of the main city (usually on a train) and spend a few days in smaller surrounding towns. They’re often highlights of the trips!
04. Domestic & International
Half of my friends love to travel around the world. The other half only travels within the 50 states. There are great options no matter where you’re comfortable going, so I like to bounce between domestic and international deals week-to-week on TV. Plus, some of my favorite spots to visit are right here at home in the Desert Southwest!
