On the edition of The Travel Guys…
- In the Travel News, requests for World Cup tickets exceed the number of tickets available; and a major cruise line has decided to go “adults only.” We'll tell you who it is.
- One of the biggest questions when it comes to travel is, when should I book to get the best price? We tackle that challenge in our Smarter Traveler segment.
- We update you on some new entry rules for national parks for the coming year, and share the news that American Airlines is expanding holding flights to help passengers make connections, particularly on the last flight of the evening.
- Our Odds-and-Ends segment explains what "skip-lagging" is, and why the airlines have new tools to fight against it; plus beware of kids on scooters in airports.
