- In the Travel News, lawmakers from our state, tiring of federal inaction against junk fees, are taking legislative steps to rid us of resort and other garbage fees. Holland America has decided to extend special Wave Season offers to Families on selected sailings.
- There are consumer protections available to us when we travel you may not be aware of. Friend of The Travel Guys Chris Elliott posted an article about some of them this week and Mark has the details.
- Hiking is one of American’s favorite recreational activities. We welcome author Joe Yogerst, to share from his recent National Geographic book, 100 Trails, 5000 Ideas: Where to Go, When to Go, What to See, What to Do.
- Airlines have different rules when it comes to seating on planes. We discuss why it’s not only better for families, but for all travelers, when families are together. Perhaps we can set greed aside and fix this problem once and for all.
