How about appealing to college students and teaching them how to travel abroad while utilizing hostels and tour groups. How about shows that teach how to search for the best deals and use social networks for travel purposes. I mean let’s get a little creative, and actually air shows that are useful to the general public! People love reality shows so how about a reality show on what it’s like to work on a cruise ship, or working at huge resort in a remote location. And let’s find hosts for shows who are normal people and not the most annoying person on the planet (I won’t name any names but it’s a woman who drives me nuts!).

Don’t get me wrong there are things about the Travel Channel I really enjoy but let’s be honest for the most part- half of the locations I will never visit in my life (Antigua), so while it’s cool to showcase those places- lets add some places I am likely to travel to. Take a hint from Rachel Ray’s Tasty Travels or $40 a day. It may seem a little crazy but I bet it just might change your channel around- I have many more ideas so Travel Channel- I will be waiting your call!
