Stinking up Summer Travel

By WRBL Staff

The swine flu might be putting a kink in some summer plans.  Here at WRBL I know of at least two Mexican vacations that are in jeaopardy.

Travel agents around town tell me they are optimistic this will pass and the Mexican Riveria will bounce back, but only time will tell at this point.

Today I worked with a couple of different travel agents to get a feel for their client reaction.  One agent told me they actually have several clients in Mexico at the moment, and so far no news is good news.  In fact, the same agent told me he just booked a honeymom to Cancun today (but of course it was for October).

I spent about roughly an hour at the AAA in Columbus and during that time six different people came in asking about travel, at least four for a cruise in the next few months. 

Folks may be wary to cross the border, but we all know that the itch for the vacation doesn’t go away until you are actually on the beach somewhere. Send us your pictures!
