*On the Sunday, April 19th, 2020 edition of The Travel Guys…*

- In the Travel News, most airlines are now guaranteeing an open middle seat, if you are flying to Canada you **MUST** wear a face mask and the [Spy Museum is offering Spy Classes for kids online,](https://www.spymuseum.org/calendar/upcoming/1/) perhaps the coolest idea in History! Plus, we tell you about a host of virtual travel videos (find many of the links on the show list).
- Travel bargains will abound soon. Will they be legit? Will the property even be open by the time you get there (some hotels/resorts are not going to survive)? We give you some hints on how to sort out the great values from the rip-offs.
- Restaurants have been hit hard by Covid-19. Most workers are without a job, some have been hit by the virus itself. [Restaurants Care](https://restaurantscare.org/?utm_source=Visit%20California%20Mailing%20List&utm_campaign=ec3b0f1470-040920_mailchimp_coronavirus&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_37cba7adfa-ec3b0f1470-75726073) is trying to help their community. We tell you how you can help as we are joined by the Executive Director of the California Restaurant Association, **Alycia Harshfield.**
- We close the show taking listener calls. What is the number one destination on your Bucket List? If you could go anywhere on the planet, where would it be? Share with us, and if you get lucky, you might win a restaurant certificate you can use soon!

**Next Week: Chris Elliott joins us from Europe with the story of his family's journey through Covid-19 countries**
