@southwestair is now offering weekly nonstop fli

@southwestair is now offering weekly nonstop flights on Sundays from @lgbairport to @flyneworleans in time for Mardi Gras season.

Southwest’s new route to the Big Easy gives our community members another convenient option while also connecting more travelers nationwide to our award-winning airport,” said Mayor Rex Richardson @rexrichardsonlb

To celebrate the first flight to Louisiana on Sunday, Jan. 8, Long Beach Airport hosted the New Orleans Traditional Jazz Band to perform a second line parade—a musical celebration that typically signifies the beginning of a new life together—for departing passengers. Travelers going to New Orleans also received customized cookies commemorating the first flight.

Southwest’s flights to New Orleans—utilizing the airline’s Boeing 737 fleet—depart LGB at 12:30 p.m. on Sundays and arrive at MSY at 6 p.m. The return flight departs MSY at 4:55 p.m. and arrives back at LGB at 7:15 p.m. Originally scheduled to be a seasonal service only through March, Southwest has extended the service through their currently published schedule of July 10.

In addition to the new Sunday flights, Southwest offers daily service throughout the year between Long Beach and New Orleans through connecting or same-plane service on the airline’s point-to-point network.

“Just in time for Mardi Gras season, we gave Southwest passengers on yesterday’s first nonstop flight from Long Beach to New Orleans a big sendoff in celebration of this convenient new route,” said Airport Director Cynthia Guidry. “This connection between two great destinations also adds flexibility and options for travelers to connect with Southwest’s broader network.”

Southwest Airlines first began service from LGB in 2016 and has continued to increase its presence at the Airport since then. Including New Orleans, and added service to Orlando starting in July, the Dallas-based airline will fly nonstop to 17 U.S. cities from LGB. #longbeach #neworleans

City Issues Safety Tips for Residents Due to Sever

City Issues Safety Tips for Residents Due to Severe Weather Systems.

The City of Long Beach is issuing a storm advisory for residents regarding the weather currently impacting the local coast, with rain expected to build throughout the afternoon and a significant storm system expected to impact the area later this evening, Jan. 4, and into tomorrow, Jan. 5, bringing with it significant ocean swell, high tidal conditions, high winds and heavy precipitation. Long Beach residents, especially those along the peninsula and in low-lying areas prone to flooding, should prepare accordingly by following these safety tips for severe weather.
Disaster Preparedness
Crews from the Departments of Parks, Recreation and Marine, Long Beach Utilities, and Public Works continue to work around the clock to build and fortify protective sand berms along the oceanfront peninsula to safeguard residents and property. Long Beach Fire Department Rescue Boats will monitor the coastline during the swell impact, patrol the harbor and marinas and respond to calls for service during the period of heaviest rain. City crews have conducted inspections and performed maintenance to ensure catch basins in flood-prone areas are clear of debris, and pump stations and seawall plugs are functioning. Debris booms along the Los Angeles River, the wetland mitigation site, Rainbow Harbor, and the debris skimmers are up and operational.

A base of operations is being established by the Fire Department at the Claremont Lot (54th Place and E. Ocean Boulevard). The Long Beach Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), Search and Rescue, Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) and other affiliated volunteers will be stationed at this location to support and assist with additional community outreach and sandbag operations during the storm.

Long Beach City Health Officer Dr. Anissa Davis ha

Long Beach City Health Officer Dr. Anissa Davis has issued a rain advisory for recreational beaches and bays in the City of Long Beach following the rain experienced in the last 24 hours. After any significant rainfall, unhealthy conditions may result from increased runoff from storm drain outlets and rivers, which eventually reach the City’s beaches. Recreational swimming areas should be avoided for three days following the end of a rainstorm. This advisory will be extended if the rain continues.

State law requires all local public health agencies with recreational swimming areas to notify the public when conditions might affect the health of swimmers. Further information may be obtained from the Health Department’s Water Quality Information Line at 562.570.4199 or online at longbeach.gov/beachwaterquality.

Mayor Rex Richardson Requests to Declare State of

Mayor Rex Richardson Requests to Declare State of Emergency on Homelessness.

In his first act as Mayor of Long Beach, Rex Richardson requested City Manager Tom Modica to bring a declaration of a Citywide State of Emergency on homelessness before the Long Beach City Council at their next meeting on January 10th, 2023.

In a letter addressed to the City Manager (attached), Mayor Richardson and Downtown Councilwoman Mary Zendejas called for the City to be “all in” on addressing homelessness collaboratively and asked all nine City Councilmembers to commit to welcoming services that bring relief to those living on the streets in their districts.

In partnership with Mayor Richardson and Councilwoman Zendejas, the City of Long Beach will also unveil a new homelessness website, which will serve as a comprehensive resource for the community on homelessness. The site will combine resources into one dashboard and include links to available services, data, community engagement opportunities, and other resources intended for both persons experiencing homelessness and housed residents.

About Mayor Richardson: Rex Richardson is a husband, father, and the 29th Mayor of Long Beach.

Mayor Richardson’s history in Long Beach is grounded in empowering communities to have a seat at the table. He believes that everyone, no matter their circumstance, deserves the opportunity to thrive. He works to change the culture of city hall to be smarter, more inclusive, and more responsive to the needs of our neighborhoods, businesses, and families while ensuring an equitable future for all. #longbeach

Long Beach firefighters battle overnight strip mal

Long Beach firefighters battle overnight strip mall fire.

Early this morning Long Beach Fire Department responded to a large commercial fire in a vacant strip mall that was undergoing renovations. The fire occurred near the intersection of Anaheim Street and Olive Avenue.

Defensive fire operations were used to extinguish the fire due to the significant fire progression and wind conditions encountered during the incident.

The fire required multiple resources and eventually ended up as a 4th alarm. This caused a significant drawdown of fire resources in Long Beach. Mutual aid was requested and received by Los Angeles County Fire Department to backfill our fire stations and provide additional resources at the scene of the fire.

Long Beach Police Department assisted with street closures and encouraged nearby residents to shelter “in-place” to address any life safety concerns.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation. There were no reports of any injuries to firefighters.

The bakery @simones.donuts on the corner of E Stea

The bakery @simones.donuts on the corner of E Stearns St is a long-time staple in Long Beach and is continuing to flourish. Walking in, customers see a diverse assortment of donuts and croissants. On the wall are old photos and newspaper clippings.

The menu consists of breakfast items like pastries and bagels. Simone’s also sells a variety of beverages such as iced blend coffee, smoothies, milkshakes and Thai iced tea.

The manager Melissa Eap, 30, says the bestsellers are the classic glazed donuts, the cronuts and apple fritters.

“All our regulars come in here, they have their go-to favorites depending on their preference,” says Eap. “I know a guy who comes in and he loves our orange cake donuts and those are, in my opinion, the most underrated of them.”

Simone’s Donuts is open 24 hours, seven days a week. Eap says that the weekends are usually busier than weekdays, but the shop can typically count on a morning and even a late-night rush. Depending on how busy they are, they’ll make donuts multiple times a day. The bakers are usually making donuts throughout the evening.

“We get a good amount of regulars who know around what time their favorite donut is made,” says Eap. “They’ll come in at 1 a.m. every morning because they know, ‘Oh yeah, they’re making the glaze or whatever right now’.”

Simone’s Donuts is a family business owned by Melissa Eap’s father, Kong Eap who bought it in the early 2000s. Kong Eap was a regular customer at Simone’s years before he took it over. He already owned the donut shop, Seaside Donuts Bakery in Newport Beach.

“Before he would go to work in the shop at Newport, he’d get hungry and he didn’t want to wait to get to work to have his coffee and breakfast,” says Melissa Eap. “So before he would get on the freeway to go on the 405, he’d stop by Simone’s first and then he’d come in and he would get a coffee. And his favorite thing here was their almond croissant which he did ask for the recipe from the previous owner.”

Kong Eap believed in Simone’s Donuts and cultivated a connection with the owners since he would come in every day.

Atlantic Aviation broke ground today on a $14 mill

Atlantic Aviation broke ground today on a $14 million development to create an additional 30,000-square-feet of high-end hangar space and 3,000-square-feet of adjoining office space at their facility at Long Beach Airport (LGB). The environmentally sustainable design includes rooftop solar panels over approximately 38,000 square feet of hangars, estimated to generate more than 1.1 million kilowatts (kW) of solar power per year.

“We’re excited to see Atlantic Aviation expand its footprint and invest in Long Beach Airport,” said Mayor Robert Garcia. “Our award-winning airport is a huge part of our local economy, and we’re continuing to grow through the development of sustainable new facilities like this one.”

Atlantic Aviation, located at 3250 Airflite Way, is a fixed-base operator (FBO) that provides ground handling, fuel, hangar facilities and office space for business and general aviation. The company’s new and expanded first-class development will be located near its existing facilities on the west side of the airfield near Wardlow Road.

“This groundbreaking is a significant milestone for Atlantic Aviation, and one we’ve been working toward for several years,” said Brian Corbett, Chief Commercial and Sustainability Officer at Atlantic Aviation. “We’re proud to continue our investment in the Long Beach aviation community and to support our team’s growth ambitions. Most important, this development marks yet another major step toward our company’s goal of achieving carbon neutral operations.”

The additional solar panels on LGB’s campus come on top of a recently completed large-scale solar project at Aeroplex Group Partners, as well as the ongoing installation of solar panels atop LGB’s parking structures, which will soon generate enough renewable energy to supply 70% of the electricity used by Airport facilities.

The new Atlantic Aviation development project also includes plans for a large-scale public work of art with an aviation theme, as recommended in the Globemaster Corridor Specific Plan for development in area.
