The Travel Guys with Mark Hoffman

The entry of Southwest into the Sacramento-Hawaii market has seen it’s first casualty. Alaska Airlines will stop flying non-stop to Kona in March. Mark has the story of an elderly couple who say they were tricked into smuggling more than $1million worth of drugs inside of four suitcases in their cruise ship cabin. Chris Elliott, our consumer advocacy friend (www.Elliott.org) updates us on legislation which might be moving resort fees (and their cousins, urban and other “destination” fees) towards the exit door. We open the phones and ask you to play “What overpriced things should I not purchase at the airport?” Should be easy, since everything is overpriced at the airport. Finally, we tell you why you should put one of your shoes in the hotel safe. Yes, really. Why?
