On the Saturday, September 2nd edition of The Travel Guys… 

In the Travel News, Hyatt bucks the trend and decided to include all fees, resort and otherwise, in the first screen price. Spirit has a sale, Delta is hiring flight attendants, and Qantas is fined for selling tickets on flights for weeks after they have been canceled.
Our Smarter Traveler segment takes on the latest (and not so recent) on-the-street tourist scams and gives you wisdom on how to avoid them.
International expert Clayton Whitehead, just back from Scotland, shares highlights of his trip and gives you some wisdom you can use if you are heading outside the country on your next trip.
