Episode 22 - Slow Lanes, Gaudi Gains and Mickey's Growing Pains

We're back!  After a couple weeks off,  Checked Bags and Big Tags is unpacking travel trends and hot topics shaping trips in 2026 and beyond. From the rise of slow travel (where the journey is just as important as the destination) to Barcelona's year-long celebration of Antoni Gaudí, we've got cultural moments you won't want to miss. We'll also break down the increasing costs of ETIAS and ETA fees for U.S. travelers heading abroad—and why that matters for your travel budget. Finally, we'll dive into why Florida, especially Disney, is seeing a surprising dip in tourism and what that means for families, fans, and the future of the Sunshine State's tourism industry.
