How is it different to be an American abroad now that President Obama is in the White House? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about the experiences Americans have when traveling overseas. The Bush Administration's policies severely tarnished the U.S. image globally. That has changed with President Obama in office and the House has passed a bill to launch a campaign promoting travel to the U.S. Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What travel experiences stand out for you? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Your Call 062508 Re/De-regulating Air Travel
How should the market for commercial flying be organized? On the next Your Call we'll explore different ideas for organizing commercial aviation as once again the industry is faltering. Since 1978 when some government controls over the market were loosened, more than 200 airlines have gone out of business but does greater instability mean greater competition? What government policies would lead to the most competition, least pollution and best service? It's Your Call with Sandip Roy and you.
Guests:
