LUV is in the Air

Southwest Airlines and fun go hand in hand, and for me, there is nothing more fun than being in love. Love month is upon us and Southwest can take you and your sweetie to some great places to celebrate romance. Romantic vacations come in all kinds of experiences and no matter what type of romantic getaway you and your partner are looking for, Southwest Airlines flies there.

For those looking to enjoy a rustic retreat, Colorado features some pretty amazing things to do. Fly into Denver and explore the beauty of the state while sharing some romantic fun with your Valentine. Soar over Pike’s Peak in a hot air balloon with Colorado Balloon rides and enjoy a champagne toast in the clouds, or soak with your sweetie in the Conundrum Hot Springs with sweeping views of the majestic mountains. If you are thinking about getting married in a creative way, the town of Loveland, Colorado, is home to an annual Mountaintop Matrimony ceremony on Valentine’s Day.

Want to experience Sin City with your love? Las Vegas is a terrific place to enjoy a romantic dinner, spend the night in a room with a view, or relax in a spa treatment with your partner. The Spa Bellagio is offering several treatments with champagne and roses and the Spa at New York, New York has created an Escape Together Couple’s Massage Package. If you want to surprise your sweetheart with something truly romantic, the MGM Mirage properties can arrange special amenities that range from chocolate covered strawberries and champagne to covering your room with rose petals. If you are looking for a more quiet experience in Las Vegas, consider a visit to the Lake Las Vegas area. Located 17 miles off the strip, this resort community features gondola rides on the lake and ice skating on a floating rink, while still offering lots of casino action and great restaurants.

Orlando is a great city for love and fun! Southwest makes your visit there easy by being a one-stop-shop to make all of your arrangements from theme park tickets to air travel. If you are thinking about popping the question, a dolphin can deliver your proposal or love note during an up close encounter at Discovery Cove. For married couples who want to renew their vows, Walt Disney World offers a range of ways to do that through Disney Weddings that can even include a ride in Cinderella’s horse-drawn carriage. Orlando is not limited to just theme parks, they also feature amazing spa treatments at the JW Marriott that incorporate the natural citrus found in the state. Additionally, Orlando boasts awesome dining options from well known chefs such as Todd English and Emeril Lagasse.

The Temecula Valley in Southern California is another great destination that’s easily accessed. This quiet escape is a perfect fit for a weekend getaway. It is a beautiful valley that is home to wineries, casinos, shopping, and loads of outdoor fun. The South Coast Winery Resort and Spa has created some great grown up weekend packages and the Pechanga Resort and Casino offers romantic getaway options. From riding in a hot air balloon, to shopping in Old Town, Temecula makes a great place to spend time with your loved one.
