I' m sick of it! ....
I just want to travel again!!!!!!!!! everyone mellow down and keep your political ideas to yourself ,it will do us all a big favor! , we are all here for one and only common interest.... TRAVEL!

NancyCohen was more eloquent than me. It's funny how some people dispute real science and medicine, and call it politics. If someone runs red lights and stop signs, and doesn't obey the speed limit, is that political, too?

In any case, I will keep fact and rational thought to myself going forward.

I don't care what your political affiliation is. As travel maven said, there are a plethora of other sites you can go to voice your opinions, jokes and snide comments. This is a forum about travel, especially travel with Tauck. May I suggest that those of you who wish to use this site differently should establish your own closed group elsewhere. There is enough hostility, lack of civility and division in our country. We don't need it here. Hopefully, Tauck will intervene and remind you of the purpose of this forum. Thank you S35flyer, travel maven and jeffr775 for speaking up. We should all be grateful that we are fortunate enough to travel the world. Let's travel (when safe to do so) and enjoy each others experiences. Stay safe and well.

I have to agree with S35Flyer. The Tauck Community Board is the only platform where I can go to avoid politics and follow discussions relating to travel, which I love dearly. From morning until night, we are bombarded with Political Commentary, ads and opinions on the TV, Radio and Social Media. The comments on Facebook have become so down right ugly and mean from both sides of the Political Arena, that it has become intolerable for me. I have unfriended several people that I truly like as the comments are so deplorable. I realize everyone is very passionate about their Political Party and candidates but please keep in mind that not everyone may share your opinion. So, I kindly ask of my kindred traveling friends that we refrain from anything political on this travel board. This is the only site I look forward to visiting every day because it is devoid of Politics. Please don't take this away from me.

BKMD, I don’t appreciate your political comments regarding 2 digit IQs. You may feel that way, but take it somewhere else. We don’t need that junk here, we’re all just wanting to travel again.

Cathy - Did you miss the paragraph in the 2nd amendment about the right to bare mouths?
On a related note, notice the audience at Trump's speech? I think a 2 digit IQ was required for entry“

I thought that was an excellent letter Dan Mahar sent. Honest, transparent and long term uplifting. It was very comforting, and should put many at easy, to hear that customer deposits are kept separate from operating funds. 2022 looks like a proper target for us - things can get settled in, more flights will be available, etc....

In these difficult times the Tauck people we have interfaced with to change, cancel and add trips have been amazing. Their spirit, professionalism, and care while under great pressure are really appreciated. Thanks to all!
