Podcast: Play in new window | Download
This America’s Birthday Edition of The Travel Guys (July 3rd), features a story from Gwen Duncan on cruising the Great Lakes and America’s Rivers.
There’s an update from Jessica Monsell of Elliott.org, this time she tells us about the results of a government audit of airline frequent flyer programs. Where are they meeting their obligations to consumers and where are they coming up short? More importantly, how can you report situations where you feel you have been treated unfairly? Jessica has the answers in her report.
Mark has the travel news, including an update of travel costs to Great Britain post-Brexit; and the guys take a look at the lighter side of travel (What you shouldn’t do on the pool deck of a cruise ship…).
