News Desk

Anne McDermott

Anne is an Emmy award-winning journalist who traded national news for global travel issues at FareCompare.  She’s used to people getting excited over politics, but says, “That pales in comparison to the rousing debates over airport security and bag fees.” Favorite destination: stepping out of an airport and onto a plane headed anywhere.
