Travel Note 1 - Greetings from JBA

Good evening from a very humid Joint Base Andrews. I’ll be the print pooler for this quick trip across the pond with President Trump for meetings in Dublin and a visit to his golf course in Doonbeg for the Irish Open.

The president will be taking the new AF1 for this trip. The support plane waiting on the other side is the old AF1, the VC-25A, tail sign 29000.

Among those who have been spotted here for the trip: Monica Crowley, Anna Kelly, Chris LaCivita, Sean Curran, and Richard Walters. The White House is expected to pass along a full list of travelers soon.

Please reach out if you need anything from me, and keep in mind we will 5 hours ahead.

Waiting for POTUS to arrive.
