*On the Sunday, December 27th, 2020 edition of The Travel Guys…*

- In the **Travel News**, we discuss how the border to Mexico is closed, but if you fly ABOVE the border, it's a different story....an interesting story for sure. How thousands of Americans are vacationing in Mexico.
- Favorite guest **Ed Perkins** is on board to discuss how and when he sees travel coming together. Ed's been writing about travel a long time, so his opinions might be of high value just because of his experience. When are Smart Travelers thinking about returning to the road? It just depends on your personal feelings.
- The back half of the program includes a special farewell to a fellow traveler, and a few behind-the-scenes stories with the show's only hosts in its ten-year run, **Tom Romano** and **Mark Hoffmann**.
