On the Saturday, January 6th, 2024 edition of The Travel Guys… In the Travel News, we share some breaking news on the grounding of all 737 MAX aircraft after an Alaska Airlines incident. Then, we offer some clues of how 379 people got off that burning Japanese airplane Tuesday. Plus, we tell you the most dangerous cities in the country to drive in. A couple are right here in California. When the aircraft door closes, the flight attendant tells you to turn your phone off, or put it in airplane mode. What is airplane mode and what happens if you don't turn your phone to it? We answer those questions in our Smarter Traveler segment. Consumer Advocate Chris Elliott has been traveling around the world for the last five years. So when he tells you his favorite destinations over the past year, it's bound to be an interesting list. Chris joins us from Santiago, Chile. Our Odds and Ends portion of the show talks about lithium batteries in your luggage and why airplanes land on their rear wheels first.
