This week’s broadcast of Eye on Travel is from Casa Primavera at Cabo Villas in Los Cabos in Baja California Sur. Peter has all the post-Thanksgiving travel updates, from air traffic to Amtrak…what worked, and what didn’t (and some surprises). International airfares keep dropping…and why. Also, a big change to Southwest Airlines’ landing rules. Jack Ezon, Founder of Embark Beyond, on post-holiday travel and what to look for in 2025, and his approach to traveler loyalty. Legendary travel advisor Anne Scully on the future of travel advisors in the brave new post pandemic world. And then a deeper dive into the culture and experiences in Los Cabos — starting with Marisa Comella, Executive Director of Los Cabos Children Foundation, who explains the mission and work they do to support children around the state, and how everyone can help. Chef Alex Branch discusses how his travels in the Persian Gulf led him to developing Mediterranean-inspired recipes in NAO, his Michelin-starred restaurant. And diver Alexander Schmidt Marquez explores the marine life surrounding Los Cabos — from sighting whales and sharks to the weirdest creature he’s ever seen. There’s all this and more on this week’s Eye on Travel.
