5) Summary: How to avoid an epic cleaning failure on your next trip

Name: Christopher Elliott USA Today

Category: Travel

Email: query-bii1@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: USA Today

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 10 November

Query:

I'm researching a story about airline seats, car rental
interiors and hotels that haven't been properly cleaned. I'd
love to hear from anyone who has traveled recently but found
that their room or seat was not clean. This is particularly
problematic during the second wave of COVID cases. How did you
handle the situation? Did you switch to a different seat or
room, or stay? Did the company offer you any compensation? From
travel experts, I'd be interested in your tips for dealing with
a cleaning failure. What are the steps you should follow during
the pandemic, and how are they different from a non-pandemic
situation?

Requirements:

Please read this before answering. I'd be very grateful if you
could send an initial response to my questions by email. Please
do not respond with a note that says you would like to be
considered for this story or want to set up a phone interview
with a source. I'm happy to consider you for this story. I've
included all of my questions in this query. Please take a minute
to briefly answer them. Kindly do not cut-and-paste answers from
previously published materials, such as press releases or blog
posts. If a phone interview is necessary, I will follow up right
away. Be sure to include your full name and a jargon-free, brief
(two to three word) description of your company or affiliation
as you would like it to appear in the article. I will do my
absolute best to acknowledge that I received your pitch and will
make every effort to let you know when the story appears. More

6) Summary: Does the travel industry deserve your sympathy?

Name: Christopher Elliott USA Today

Category: Travel

Email: query-bii2@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: USA Today

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 10 November

Query:

I'm researching a story about the state of the travel industry.
Many have suggested that airlines, travel agents, hotels and car
rental companies deserve your sympathy -- and your business --
because of the damage caused by the pandemic. However, others
remember what happened pre-COVID, when high fees and prices (and
a "take-it-or-leave-it" attitude) defined many parts of the
travel industry. I'd love to hear from travelers on this topic.
Do you feel the travel industry deserves your help or is COVID
the comeuppance that you're enjoying? From industry experts, I'd
be interested in hearing your views on this issue. Should
customers go out of their way to help travel companies during
this difficult time -- or not?

Media Outlet: Forbes

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 10 November

Query:

I'm working on a story about people who are traveling during the
holidays despite the dangers. But what are the dangers? I'd love
to hear from anyone who is taking a trip during the holidays.
Where are you going? What do you see as the biggest hazard to
your health, and what are you doing about it? From travel
experts, I'd like to know about the top two or three mistakes
that could hurt or even kill a traveler. What's your advice on
how to avoid these dangers?
