On the Sunday, December 22nd, 2019 edition of The Travel Guys… In the Travel News, Carnival says you cannot wear offensive apparel on board its ships any longer; and our Sacramento airport offers some tips for holiday travel, including checking Facebook (@SacIntlAirport), Instragram (@Flysmf) and Twitter (@SacIntlAirport) for updates. Remember to allow plenty of time, as parking in some lots will be at a premium. Mark also tells listeners the stories on "juice jacking" at airports are mostly false alarms. At least so far. Non-refundable rates on hotel rooms on websites have become the new "basic economy" of accommodations. Yes, the prices are lower. But when you book one of these non-refundable rates, know something.

Consumer Advocate Chris Elliott joins us (www.elliott.org) to talk about first baby steps some major companies are taking to respond. The town of Santa Claus, Indiana, is a small, midwestern city. But as you might suspect by its name, it does become a special place every holiday season. We go to Santa Claus to learn about a project the townspeople volunteer for every year, answering children's letters to Santa Claus.
