Host it as a six-round quiz
Set Start from to one round and you have 20 questions on one subject. At a travel-themed party or a retirement send-off, the host reads each question and its four choices, teams write down a letter, and one tap settles it. Keep scores on paper: the card does not track teams. The flags round describes each flag in words, so it works read aloud.
Print a round or play solo
After a set, Print lists the questions you played with lettered choices, and a tick on With answer key adds the reasons. Choose a round under Start from first and the paper stays inside that round. On a long layover, Scored round asks 20 and marks them at the end. Start with Airport codes: ORD still stands for Orchard Field, the name O'Hare had first.
- Run Travel words last: it is the round where the table argues, and the card settles whether ukulele really means jumping flea.
- Family in another time zone? Share this set copies a link that opens the same questions in the same order on every phone.
- At a send-off, open with the traveler's round: Airport codes for the frequent flyer, Capitals and borders for the one with a wall map.
Questions and answers
How hard are these travel trivia quiz questions?
Mixed on purpose: 54 of the 120 are easy, such as which country uses the baht, and 66 are hard, such as naming the only two doubly landlocked countries. Every round holds at least eight easy ones, so a mixed-age table stays in the game.
Do travel facts like these go out of date?
These should hold. Each answer was checked on September 19, 2026 against the page linked under it, and airport codes were also looked up in the IATA code search. Visitor numbers, entry rules and prices are left out because they change.
Does it work on a plane with no signal?
Not the card: it loads its questions over the network, so airplane mode stops it. Before you leave, set Start from to a round and print its sheet and key. Six rounds, six printouts, and the whole set travels in your bag.
