The COVID-19 pandemic was responsible for laying off millions of people around the globe. Tomeka Jones, a former CNN Reporter and Producer, is one of these stories. After being laid off by CNN Airport Network in 2021, Tomeka Jones announces the launch of her luxury and adventure multimedia travel brand, Travel in Style with Tomeka, offering audiences the opportunity to explore the world through authentic experiences.
Travel in Style with Tomeka features exclusive interviews with travel brands, influencers, and nomads as they provide insight into the latest travel trends, destinations, inspiration, as well as tips and tricks on how to travel like a pro.

The first video episode of Travel in Style with Tomeka featured the mountain town of Breckenridge, Colorado. In the first week of August, the short video received over 1.28 million impressions after broadcasting in more than 60 airports across the country on ReachTV, the largest television airport network in North America.
“Working with Tomeka was a breath of fresh air,” said Lauren Swanson, Public Relations Director, Breckenridge Tourism Office. “Her authenticity and creative energy combined with passion and professionalism made this project go incredibly smoothly. I was especially impressed with her ability to deliver results on a tight timeline, with a final product that was above and beyond my expectations. Her personality shines through everything she does, and she is a pleasure to partner with for content creation and storytelling.”
Tomeka worked with Emmy award-winning photographer and editor Jason Vaz to create the first episode of Travel in Style with Tomeka.
