On the Saturday, June 6th edition of the Travel Guys…

* In the Travel News, Carnival Cruise Lines is cracking down on troublemakers on board, and airlines are warning a new congressional bill could put your miles earning power in jeopardy. Their explanation is full of BS.
* Our Smarter Traveler segment addresses bogus texts some have received regarding toll fees you supposedly owe. “Just click here and everything will be fine.” Or perhaps not. We’ll talk about bogus toll texts.
* Chris Elliott checks in with us and updates his travels in Asia. Plus, we talk about how tourists are acting inappropriately all over the planet. Why? What can/should a traveler do if you encounter someone who is damaging a historical monument or other point of public interest?
* Doubling back to a story we talked about last week – some airlines were offering cheaper fares online if you were traveling with someone. Example: One ticket to Kansas City is $300. But if you buy two tickets, it’s $50, or $225 each. There is an update to the story.
