Take a break with the self-proclaimed “Pop Culture Travel Guide,” the source for celebrity-centric travel tweets. (Hello, Kevin Smith?)

Tuesday mornings, JetBlue announces last-minute, deeply discounted, Twitter-exclusive deals (like “$79 from BOS to LAX”). Act fast: There are 50,000 followers and just 25 seats at that Tuesday price.
