            <itunes:summary>In this episode, a listener asks about if and when to use travel compression socks, we discern the popularity of in-flight Wi-Fi service from Gogo's IPO filing, and dissect a recent article on the best airports for tech users. We look at the new wave of social media dining apps such as Untappd which helps you drink beer socially, how they're taking advantage of smartphone cameras and location services. We wrap up with a look at how airline alliances are changing the frequent flier's experience.</itunes:summary>

            <itunes:subtitle>Updated Travel Tips for Crowded Holidays; Spirit Airlines' Bad Behavior</itunes:subtitle>
            <itunes:summary>Updated holiday travel tips: drive or train for trips less than 350 miles, pay extra to fly direct, catch the first flight out, and know all the alternative airports. News reports of Black Friday shopping make me wonder why people would go through the hassles to fly airlines like Spirit Air. Listener comments about last episode's story of a rare prop plane flight sitting next to a "passenger of size"; then my own thoughts on the USAir passenger forced to stand on a 7-hour flight because a "passenger of size" overflowed into his seat.</itunes:summary>

Sitting next to a huge guy on a very small plane got me thinking about how to deal with row mates — row mates "of size" and row mates who like to chat. Global Entry program saved me from a huge line at ORD. Comment on the now-infamous TSA exhortation to "Get Your Freak On Girl". Close with an economics lesson — what's happened to all the hot flight attendants?</itunes:summary>

            <itunes:summary>Into the summer travel rhythm with a mix of vacation and business travel. Using an Apple iPad 2 and Samsung's new Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android tablet during this mix gave me enough real world experience to make some recommendations. A couple of recent web links describe this podcast as "not as upbeat as others" which is true, but because it focuses on traveling, not destinations. Perhaps this non-chipper attitude is partially explained by a recent study placing 4 US airline companies in the top 8 most hated companies in America. And a listener suggests ways to reduce roaming voice and data costs. </itunes:summary>

            <itunes:summary>Was off the road for two weeks for my kids' graduations, but now back in the security lines with a mix of domestic and international travel. Listener suggestions include dining at local music clubs to avoid the "eating alone" stigma, and using mini-USB hubs to power your gadgets without carrying a basketful of international plug adapters. I'm impressed by how a couple of TSA screeners deal with a silly carry-on. I'm not impressed though by how American Airline's old MD-80's keep delaying my travels. And, after a lousy Avis rental return experience, an employee reaches out and wins me back</itunes:summary>

            <itunes:subtitle>More Comfortable in India; New Android Tablet Has Me Rethinking My iPad Fixation</itunes:subtitle>
            <itunes:summary>Lots of business travel this month - UK, India, Germany, Phoenix, San Francisco, and Madrid - so there's a lot to talk about. The international travel lets me compare business class seats - there's a wide range of experiences even within the same airline. While in India, a listener asks my advice on adjusting for jetlag on Asian flights. I was surprised at the amount of data my iPhone consumed while I was in Europe but I finally found the culprit. I found myself much more comfortable traveling in India the second time around. And, walking away from the Google IO conference with a new Samsung Android "Honeycomb" tablet, my iPad fixation starts to loosen.</itunes:summary>

            <itunes:summary>My business-vacation combo trip to London, Paris, and Venice provides the source for most of this episode's content. Wanting to pack light, I had to figure out how to pack for 10 days, 3 cities, two business meetings and a week's vacation in a single carry-on bag. After landing in London, I skipped the airports and used trains for all my intra-European travel, not boarding another flight until we were heading home from Venice, though not before having to wrestle through a randomly rebooting kiosk. I also talk about toothpaste tablets, another way to avoid liquid in your carry-on, and a great restaurant in O'Hare's Terminal 1.</itunes:summary>

            <itunes:summary>I'm getting ready for a stint of international travel. I visited the 2011 Travel Goods show for a preview of the new travel goodies we'll be seeing in the shops this spring. Wading through a front room stacked with luggage, I hit the gadget room with the interesting stuff and interviewed some of the company owners. I also talk about the growing number of wireless WiFi hotspots I'm seeing in hotels, and about the different ways Marriott and United Airlines dropped my frequent flier/frequent sleeper status after my traveling patterns changed. Also, a listener tells us about a good Air France experience re-routing around an East Coast snow storm, and an audio comment about being sick on the road. Listen through to the end of the podcast for how to enter the latest TravelCommons contest.</itunes:summary>

            <itunes:summary>I skipped the Midwest's "snow-pocalypse" by flying to Phoenix where it was unseasonably cold -- in the 20's and 30's F -- but without snow. It's been a cold winter and I came down with some nasty bug while visiting Dallas, which reminded me how miserable it is to be sick while traveling. Before my whining, though, I give a quick status on my New Year's travel resolutions, my observations on the status of the TSA's full body scanning program, and my struggles trying to use Avatron's Air Display app to turn my iPad into a second display for my MacBook Air. Gary Learned suggests a headset that can defeat overhead PA announcements at airports, and I go through my briefcase -- how I've changed what I carry for business travel over the past 5 years</itunes:summary>
