Wrapping up this segment, we talk about the strikes that might affect your trip, the Venice Regatta (boat races), Jimmy Kimmel's Italian citizenship (though, mostly how it might change the Italian government's outlook on jus sanguinis), and the famed (or infamous) Bridge to Sicily/Messina Bridge.

And if you’re headed to Italy this summer/fall—or already here—you can grab a ferry for 10% off! Such as the previously mentioned ferry from Salerno to the Amalfi Coast! ⁠Omio⁠ is running a 10% off sale on ferry trips! Here is a link to the site and discount codes for August-October 2025.

August code: SAILANDSAVE10

September code: SEP24

October code: OCT24
