WCNY presents its 26th annual Travel Auction beginning at 7 p.m. Jan. 22 on WCNY-TV. The live auction also airs at 7 p.m. Jan. 23, 28, and 29. Bidding starts at 60% off of each trip’s value.

Viewers are invited to bid on hundreds of trips in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Europe, Belize, Central and South America. To see a list of inventory before the start of the auction, visit wcny.org/travelauction.
