Vacationing During a Pandemic

Season 1, Ep. 16

Have you decided where you'll be going on vacation this summer? Will you be going anywhere at all? For the latest advice on how Americans are choosing (and not choosing) to spend their holiday, we turned to Pauline Frommer, of the famed Frommer travel family and publisher of the highly respected Frommer's travel guides.


From which airlines to fly on (and which ones to avoid) to what's happening with cruises, and from where in Europe you can still travel without restriction to which destinations Pauline recommends once the pandemic is safely in the rear-view mirror, this is an episode that will help get you on your way. And if a staycation is the only "trip" in your future for now, Pauline also recommends a slew of virtual excursions that may prove to be the next best thing to being there.
