On the edition of The Travel Guys…
- In the Travel News, wildcat hotel strikes in California and Hawaii have mostly ended without an agreement; and a new survey tells us what one benefit flyers consider to be the most value. Can you guess what it is?
- Tipping is a touchy subject and travelers face situations where tips are requested (or expected) often. But there is one set of people Mark always leaves a little something for. He shares his thoughts in our Smarter Traveler segment.
- September is California Wine Month. There are a ton of special events and activities...including one at a Livermore winery where you can catch a falconry demonstration. How do falcons help wineries? You'll hear the story and it's a fascinating interview.
- Our odds and ends segment features frequent complaints by hotel guests. If you are the person slamming you door at 1am, there is a special place in "Traveler Heaven" for you...ok, maybe not heaven.
