It’s only been a few days since the election, but already we’re wondering: What will happen to travel policy under the Trump administration? 

Naturally quite a bit can change from Biden to Trump -- and even from the first Trump administration -- and in this episode we talk with Johanna Jainchill, our news editor and travel-policy reporter, and View from the Wing’s Gary Leff about what kids of changes we might expect on several fronts: visa processing and travel bans, antitrust and airline combinations, the FAA, recent rules on refunds and disclosures, plus what might become of extensive requests for information from the departments of justice and transportation. 

This episode was recorded Friday, Nov. 8 and has been edited for length and clarity.
