The New York City travel industry has come together to express their appreciation for the tremendous amount of support the city has received in response to the Sept. 11 attacks. New York City and Company, the city’s visitors bureau, has developed the “Paint the Town Red, White and Blue Freedom Packages,” which are available through Feb. 28.
These packages enable visitors to experience the best of New York City. The collaboration of NYC and Co., American Express, Delta, CocaCola, Metropolitan Transportation Authority and Citysearch.com has formulated unprecedented prices to make visits to the city even more affordable.
The Freedom Packages are offered for one, two and three nights starting at $157. The packages include hotel accommodations, hotel tax, a Broadway show, a donation to the Twin Towers Fund, dinner gift certificates, a discounted auto parking coupon, NYC All Loops sightseeing tour (excluding one night packages) and a Paint the Town Red, White and Blue Freedom Pass, which offers discounts at New York museums, attractions and shops.
Broadway shows that are featured as part of the packages include “Chicago,” “Cabaret,” “Phantom of the Opera,” “Les Miserables,” “Tale of the Allergist’s Wife” and “Proof.”
Those who are interested in partaking in NYC’s comeback and would like to experience everything that still makes New York one of the most exciting cities in the world may find more information and reservations at www.redwhiteandblue.com.
