Renowned travel authority and NBC Today show travel
editor Peter Greenberg shares his insider secrets.
Americans now travel more than ever before. Yet as our
traveling has increased, the service we receive from
airlines, hotels, and other agencies has deteriorated
dramatically. Industry surveys reveal what you already
feel: growing dissatisfaction among travelers of every age,
income, and education level. We've been abused by the travel
experience. Peter Greenberg is here to help. The Travel
Detective tells you the things most travel agents can't
— or sometimes just won't — tell you. In his
characteristic friendly and conversational tone, Greenberg
tells how to find the secret walk-up fares that can save air
travelers hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on last
minutes flights; which coach seats on which planes are
better than first class; the secret rule to know to avoid
being bumped from a flight, which cruise ship brochures lie;
which credit card companies are fastest — and slowest — to
come to your aid in a foreign land, or worse, in the U.S.,;
which hotels have the best — and the worst — fire and crime
safety records, and how you can protect yourself; how to
negotiate the best hotel room deal; which hotels have the
worst water pressure in their showers (and better yet, how
you can get great water pressure, even at those hotels); and
much, much more. Accessible and entertaining, The Travel
Detective gives you the information and tools you need
to make every trip an affordable pleasure.
