This week’s broadcast of Eye on Travel is from aboard the Victory I as it sails from Toronto, Canada, to Chicago, Illinois, cruising through the Great Lakes. Peter will have all the travel updates, including the continuing fallout from artificial intelligence reportedly being used to “personalize” airline ticket pricing, and what that means to the cost of your tickets; the real impact of Southwest’s decision to eliminate “bags fly free,” and what that has done to the airline’s operational reliability; and how an “MRI” for your rental car, over which customers have no control, is costing you money for “damages” you didn’t do. Then, on to the Great Lakes on the Victory I cruise from Toronto, from the food scene in Canada, and some unusual museums, to the legends and the myths of the Great Lakes, ranging from ancient sunken artifacts to lost World War II planes, cruise historian Peter Knego on the legacy of coastal steamers, and the hidden gems on America’s inland waterways. There’s all this and more on this week’s Eye on Travel, from the Victory I.
