The records show the mayor used a company called Going Places Travel to book flights on United and Delta Airlines.

Highly questionable she used a travel service with a small travel agency rather than book direct through the airlines

The mayor flew first class while in the United States, sitting in seat 1E while travelling from New Orleans to Dulles International Airport in Virginia. She then travelled first class again on the return flight back to New Orleans from Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta, sitting in the first row.


Sounds like Michelle Obama when she would have to take a separate plane from her husband to carry all of her entourage on the tax payer dime. They're convinced that due to all of the hardships "their" people have gone through, they deserve to be treated well....it's their come-uppance.

I've traveled on ones exactly like that in Business on International many times, almost always on points that cost close to Zero dollars (have to pay some taxes and whatnot), and when I did pay CERTAINLY never played anywhere close to 17k.

Well I just don't understand New Orleans's problem with her. If you really didn't like her, why did you re-elect her so unanimously?

Just saw that she was pitching to France the idea of building a Hair pick statue right next to the Effiel Tower and it would say "Everything good about Paris is because of the black mayor from New Orleans.

She was there for 3 days. How did she spend $23,000 outside of flight and lodging?

The other $23k was for the three people that came with her. She spent $20k on herself and $23k on three other people.

I still can't get over the $17,000 flight.

Also, y'all keep posting about the wrong travel agency. She didn't use the off-shore company or the one with offices in Florida. She used that shady one in Metairie that looks to have a contract with the City of NOLA.

"You make sure we're contracted with the City, I'll guarantee you can fly 1st class."

Why did you elect Joe Biden and John Bel Edwards?

She exceeded her allotted lavish spending and it says she has to write down why she exceeded it, and she wrote nothing. They signed it anyway.

Her itineraries look a hell of a lot like a vacation and not like business. But we already knew that. She’s enjoying her vacations on tax payer dime

How bout this cowinky dink. Going Places Travel Inc is registered to Rosanna Barnes. Her home address is listed on the SOS site(verified by people search).

If you google street view her house and look back a few years to 2014 you'll see an old Grand Marquis in the driveway. But fast forward to 2021 and 2022. They got $150k in two vehicles parked on the street right chea.
Rosanna has done well for herself in recent years. Wonder why?



2014 She had a janky fence and ole hoopty Grand Marquis.

The name and link to the office in nola has been posted several times itt already


Correct however the link isnt the actual website. It doesnt exist.

And everywhere you look it up has Going Places Travel website which appears to be a different international company.

The yelp page for the office in nola has a website linked to it thats based out of California with no listed office in Nola.

Are you understanding what is happening yet

Who owns Going Places Travel ?


Are there no travel agencies in the city of New Orleans? She used one in Metairie.

ETA: The invoice had a Metairie address.
