On the edition of The Travel Guys…
- In the Travel News, everyone on board survived the Delta crash in Toronto this past week, and we discuss a couple of important aspects of the accident (the great job the flight attendants did getting everyone off an upside down airplane, and our amazement that people were dragging carry-on luggage through the snow - just before jet fuel re-ignited). Plus our Sacramento airport, known for its unique art (think old suitcases piled to the ceiling and a giant rabbit) is getting some more culture to hang in the new pedestrian walkway.
- Your middle name. It can be an issue when you travel. In our Smarter Traveler segment, we talk about where it can be a hindrance or a problem, and what you can do to make sure your middle name doesn't keep you off the plane or the ship, or from getting back into the country.
- Would you believe you can see the world on $75 a day? Matt Kepnes just updated his best-selling book that tells you how. He has some solid tips for saving $$$ when you are on the road. How to Travel the World on $75 a Day is the name of his book (link is on this page).
- Mark digs into the mailbag and answers your questions on airport parking, self service travel and when to book your cruise.
