Strange questions travel agents deal with You Can’t Make This Stuff Up!

Posted by Rocky Point Times | Jul 4, 2015 | Joe Houchin |

During National Travel and Tourism Week celebrations earlier in May (May 2-10) the American Society of Travel 4 (2) Agents (ASTA) released the results of a survey sent to industry leaders asking for their strangest requests from customers over the last year.

Actually, it has been a long time coming and our little town is growing up from the very lax fishing village, into a real-life small city. I now obey traffic laws just as I would if I were driving in Phoenix or Tucson, and it’s really not much of an inconvenience at all. It’s probably for the best anyway because not everyone is as conscientious and I have probably avoided an accident or two by stopping at a stop sign when the car coming the other direction decided that they didn’t need to.
