Champagne flight to VEGAS
Back in the heady days of 1956, daily flights to Vegas from Los Angeles could be had for a mere $25 each! This included airfair, limo service, drinks (including champagne on the flight - hence the name,) $5 in chips for the Showboat casino, and a big steak dinner.
B-Movie, TV and Commercial Actress Sally Todd and her then boyfriend Bill Whitehall were subjects of an article in the 1956, June edition of Playboy Magazine talking about this great trip. Included in the article was the phone number of the airline (STanley 7-3456) that offered this service.
Less then a year later Sally Todd would become Playboy Playmate for February 1957. Nothing more is known about the fate of Bill Whitehall.
