Notes: John Lennon and Yoko Ono flew from London to the Bahamas on this day, hoping to hold their second bed-in for peace.

They flew with Ono`s daughter Kyoko and Apple publicist Derek Taylor, and a two-man film crew, Nic Knowland and Mike Lax.

Lennon and Ono were intending to hold the bed-in at the Sheraton Oceanus Hotel in Freeport, which they had booked into under the name Shammers.

After changing planes at Bermuda and Nassau, they arrived in Freeport, but decided the layout of the Sheraton-Oceanus South
Hotel were not suitable to stage a bed-in. The following day they flew to Toronto, Canada.
