What Not To Do While Traveling [Faux Pas Round 2]

In this hilarious and honest follow-up to one of our most popular episodes, Bryce, Emily, and Travis tackle a brand-new batch of travel faux pas submitted by listeners and inspired by their own recent adventures.

From the fiery debate over kids in premium cabins to the eternal question of whether it's ever okay to go barefoot on a plane, the 10xTravel crew breaks down the weirdest, worst, and most relatable travel etiquette dilemmas out there.

You'll hear:

• Airplane seat etiquette
• Who really owns the overhead bin?
• Controversial takes on lounge hogs, gate lice, and tuna sandwiches
• Ethical gray zones in points & miles, including award booking tactics and status sharing
• Real confessions from the crew on their most questionable in-flight behaviors
