How Can I Pass the Time on My Flight to California?

August 21, 2021

Flying is one of the fastest ways to get to California from another state. Yet airlines still have a ways to go regarding their ability to provide reliable Internet service. While you might be able to watch a movie on your flight, it’s best to be prepared with some other things to do. These ideas will help you make time fly until you land in California.

Make a List of Sights to See

You may already have an itinerary, but you might be surprised at some of the ideas for things to do that pop into your mind once you get in the air. Make sure to bring a notepad so you can brainstorm places you might still want to visit. Planning a few extra side excursions helps you round out your trip. It can be helpful to browse popular travel sites such as Tripadvisor. Coronado visitors, for example, will be amazed at the incredible variety of things to see and do in the San Diego area.

Catch Up on Your Sleep

There’s something about California that makes visitors want to hit the ground running. With so many things to do and see, it often feels like there’s not enough time to get it all done. Consider bringing along a neck pillow, an eye mask, and some headphones. You’ll be glad you took a nap when you need the energy to go on that late-night outing.

Play a Travel Game

If you have traveling companions, you’re in luck. Many of the best classic board games come in miniature sizes. Playing a few games is a great way to bond with your kids, and they’ll love being entertained.

Make a New Friend

If you’re traveling alone, it might help to know you probably aren’t the only person who’s bored. Check the seat next to you to see if your neighbor might be up for a chat. If you’re lucky, he or she has been to California before and can offer you some pointers. If not, you can compare the top things on your itineraries to see if there’s anything you’ve left out.

Start Your Travel Journal

Journaling is a great way to pass the time, and you can begin writing about your travels before you ever set foot on California soil. Consider creating a few prompts you can use to get yourself started when you write in your journal at the end of the day. You can ask questions about the places you plan to go that you can think about as you enjoy each sight.

Tackle a Chore

This idea might not seem like a lot of fun, but it’s a major stress reliever. Since you don’t have much else to do, writing those reports for work or finishing a paper for school is a great way to be productive. You’ll find it easier to stay on task without the distractions you have at home. Plus, you’ll arrive in California with a clear mind and a schedule that lets you enjoy every moment of your trip.

If your vacation plans include a stay in Southern California, check out the beautiful 1906 Lodge. Coronado visitors are pampered in style at this historic hotel, which Business Insider India named one of the 30 Best Boutique Hotels in America. Many of our guestrooms feature private entrances, balconies, spa tubs, wet bars, and cozy fireplaces. Call us today at 866-435-1906 to reserve your room across the bay from gorgeous San Diego.

How do we protect personal information?

We use a variety of security measures and technologies to help protect your personal information from unauthorised access, use, disclosure, alteration or destruction, consistent with applicable data protection and privacy laws including “cloud servers” owned by Google, Amazon Web Services and other property management and booking systems. Any payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL technology; all payment information is stored with our payment processor and is never stored on our servers. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of the Products, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone and suggest that your change your password frequently. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your information transmitted to the Products; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.

What information is not secure?

We endeavor to protect the privacy of your account and other personal information that we hold in our records, but unfortunately, we cannot guarantee complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information. Also, while we endeavor to put adequate contractual protections in place, we cannot guarantee the security of any personal information in databases hosted by third parties.

It is important to note that any e-mail communication is not secure. This is a risk inherent in the use of e-mail. Please be aware of this when requesting information or sending forms to us by e-mail (for example, from the “Contact Us” section of our website). We recommend that you do not include any confidential information (i.e. credit card information) when using e-mail. For your protection, our e-mail responses to you will not include any confidential information.

Finally, to be prudent, please be sure to always close your browsers when you are done using a form or the reservation site. Although the session will terminate after a short period of inactivity, it is best to close your browsers immediately upon completion, especially when using a public computer.

What personal information may be provided to third parties?

We may share certain of your personal information with:

  • other Oceanic LLC, and managed properties;
  • agents, contractors or social media and advertising platforms or third party service providers of Oceanic who provide services to Oceanic to better serve your needs as a guest;
  • escrow agents, third party lenders and loan-servicing agents;
  • a prospective buyer or investor in the event that we sell any business or assets;
  • analytics and search engine providers that assist Oceanic in the improvement and optimization of the website and our mobile App;
  • our professional advisors and auditors; and
  • local or foreign regulators, governments, courts, law enforcement and national security authorities.

You may advise the hotel if you do not want personal preferences shared.

Where a third party is engaged by Oceanic to provide services on our behalf, Oceanic ensures these parties protect your Personal Information in a manner consistent with the principles articulated in this Privacy Notice.

In the case of third party residential property developers, the particular developer’s website can be consulted for the developer’s policy on the collection, storage and use of your personal information.

If you have chosen to join a subscription list, please note that they are only used for internal purposes and we do not sell or rent our subscription lists to anyone.

If Oceanic suspects any unlawful activity is taking place, it may investigate and/or report its findings or suspicions to the police or other relevant law enforcement agency.

Transfers of your personal information outside your home country

Your personal information may be processed by Oceanic and its trusted third party suppliers anywhere in the world, including in countries where data privacy laws may not be equivalent to, or as protective as, the laws in your home country.

In particular, your personal information will be stored in your guest profile in our Central Reservation System located in USA and is available to all properties owned by Oceanic.

We will implement appropriate measures to ensure that your personal information remains protected and secure when it is transferred outside of your home country. These measures include data transfer agreements implementing standard data protection clauses. You can find out more about data transfer agreements here.

Your rights

Accessing your personal information

We understand that you may like to know what personal information we hold about you. We are happy to assist you with your request. To protect your personal information, however, we require that you prove your identity to us at the time your request is made.

When you make a request in person, we will require you to produce some form of photo identification such as a passport or a driver’s license and you will be asked to sign a request form.

Where you make a request by other means, we request you contact us in writing via email, fax or letter including a copy of a government issued identification and signature. We require home and business addresses and phone numbers so we can check them with our files and satisfy ourselves as to your identity.

The above information is required to create an audit trail of how the request has been handled.

Oceanic reserves the right to decline access to your personal information under certain circumstances as permitted by law. If your personal information is not disclosed to you, you will be provided with the reasons for this non-disclosure.

Other rights

You may also be entitled to:

  • request the correction and/or deletion of your personal information;
  • request the restriction of the processing of your personal information, or object to that processing;
  • opt out from processing of your personal information for direct marketing purposes;
  • withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal information (where Oceanic is processing your personal information based on your consent); and
  • request the receipt or transmission to another organisation, in machine-readable form, of the personal information you have provided to Oceanic.

Where you are given the option to share personal information with Oceanic, you can always choose not to do so.

If you do not wish to receive marketing information from Oceanic, you may indicate your wishes on your registration card when you stay with us or send an e-mail to: info@oceanicenterprises.com. You will always have the ability to accept or decline any form of communication from Oceanic. You may unsubscribe from electronic marketing communications at any time by selecting the “unsubscribe” link included in such communications.

If you object to the processing of your personal information, or if you have provided your consent to processing and you later choose to withdraw it, we will respect that choice in accordance with our legal obligations.

This could mean that we are unable to perform the actions necessary to achieve the purposes of processing described above (see ‘How do we use your personal information?’) or that you are unable to make use of the services offered by us.

After you have chosen to withdraw your consent Oceanic may be able to continue to process your personal information to the extent required or otherwise permitted by law.

If at any time you wish to exercise any of these rights, you can do so by:
