Episode 138: Sunscreen Flavored Ice Cream

Cancun is quieter than usual right now, and that’s the kind of travel signal we pay attention to because lower demand often leads to lower prices. We walk through a limited promotion that can save you up to $550 on a Cancun vacation when you pay in full at booking, plus why this might be the perfect time to lock in an all-inclusive beach trip. We also share Mark’s personal favorite place to stay so you have a concrete starting point when you’re comparing resorts.From there, we jump across the Atlantic to Malta, one of our favorite Mediterranean islands for travelers who want history and sun in the same week. With Valletta (a UNESCO World Heritage City), fortress walls, and layers of influence from the Romans to the Knights of St. John, Malta is a true crossroads of civilizations. We also talk snorkeling and scuba diving, how small the island really is, and which styles of hotels fit different trips. A big headline makes Malta even more accessible: Delta is launching seasonal JFK to Malta nonstop flights June through October.We round out the show with practical travel news and a fast-moving cruise segment: new airline power bank rules (and how to avoid getting tripped up), the US airport ranked worst for flight delays, a few cruise headlines that range from useful to bizarre, and five cruise deals of the week spanning the Mexican Riviera, the Western Caribbean, the Southern Caribbean, Norwegian fjords, and a bucket-list Hawaii-to-Tahiti sailing. Subscribe, share this with your favorite travel planner, and leave a review so more people can find the deals and destinations you’re hearing about.This episode of The Vacation Nerd Podcast and Radio Show is presented by Rampage Rental & Repair!  Headed to St. George, Utah?
