"First Class All the Way" Premieres Nov. 3
Bravo’s newest docu-drama, "First Class All the Way," premieres Monday, Nov. 3, at 10 pm ET/PT.
The show follows Sara Duffy, founder of a Los Angeles-based multi-million dollar travel concierge business. But keeping those high-class clients happy isn’t always easy, as this series reveals.
It reminds me of that old show, Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. Remember that? It’ll be fun watching Duffy try to deliver the champagne wishes and caviar dreams to her clients — billionaires, socialites, celebs, and anyone else with way too much time and money on their hands.
More after the jump…
The only downfall will be wishing *I* was checked into those private yachts, luxury villas, and exclusive resorts. But hey, it’ll be worth it. This season’s trips include:
- A trip to Monte Carlo for five wealthy housewives, who’ll get a private tour of the Monaco Royal Family’s art collection and a meeting with Prince Albert
- A romantic getaway to Italy’s Amalfi Coast for actor Sam Page (Shark) and his long-time girlfriend
- The ultimate guys vacation for Heroes star Leonard Roberts and his buddies, who’ll check out a private villa Tuscany.
Duffy’s got the creds to do it, too. She’s worked in the travel industry for 17 years and was recently named one of Travel & Leisure magazine’s "A-List" agents. Her staff includes Cynde Schneider, an industry vet for more than 25 years and described by Duffy as "the voice of reason in the middle of chaos"; Monica Selvaggio, a perfectionist who’s been working with Duffy for more than three years; and Cindy Wirth, the highly-opinionated friend of Duffy’s who just recently took on the job of a concierge.
Sounds fun!

I am incredibly excited to see First Class All the Way mostly because I lost contact with Cindy Wirth years ago. Cindy is the ultimate travel and lifestyle professional. I was married for several years to an incredibly demanding (but loving) woman - Cindy was the only one that was ever able to meet my late wife’s over the top and impossible expectations - she was able to get us access to places that only most would dream - On a trip to Italy, Cindy managed to set up a private lunch cooked by the Vatican nuns, then closed down a designer boutique in Milan so my wife could shop, and then had us both flown by helicopter to the Ferrari race track in Mugello for a few test laps! Perfection! Cindy is that very rare type - a perfect blend of beauty, style, and discretion - I can not wait to watch the show!!!!

Hey Jane, I am on that show too. Sara really pulls through and it takes more than just contacts. She has genuine friends in the business that helps make the demands she is presented with come into the Reality. Drama is never far from any business……keep watching.

Dear Jane, so much for spell check!
As I said, happy to speak to you at anytime!
Although the economy has changed drastically since the filmimg of the show, the beauty of the locations we filmed at still hold their own.
Travel is still one of the best forms of mental escape. In times as uncertain as we are feeling currently, travel is as important as it has ever been. Modifications can be made to vacations that can make it affordable and provide a much needed break from our daily lives and stress. It also gives the opportunity to spend quality focused time with the ones who are closest to us.
Best regards,
Sara
