Lenovo, Southwest Airlines and comedian and actor Owen Benjamin are setting out to visit the most airports in a 30-day period and set a new world record. Traveling with a Lenovo IdeaPad Tablet K1, his sense of humor and a boarding pass, Owen will take off on an adventure to airports all over the nation.
“As a comedian, I like to inject the fun in every situation,” said comedian Owen Benjamin. “With Funny on the Fly, I’m taking that to a whole new level, hopping from Southwest terminal to terminal with nothing but a few good laughs, my IdeaPad Tablet K1 and a carry-on. And when I’m not doing standup, I stay productive with the Tablet K1 by recording new ideas for upcoming comedy sets, downloading movie scripts, watching videos, and even tweeting sweet pics of my dog Benny.”
Passengers traveling Southwest Airlines from November 21 to December 20 might just get to witness Owen’s record breaking attempt at Southwest terminals and on flights. Owen will be documenting his mile high, most frequent flyer attempt via his IdeaPad Tablet K1. He will be posting daily Twitter, YouTube and Flickr updates on the Funny on the Fly website at www.flyingfunny.com.
