This powerful close‑up effect uses a specially printed deck where every card features a globe, an airplane, and a different travel destination. The spectator names any country in the world, and the animated sequence brings their choice to life as the plane circles the globe and lands on the freely named location — a moment that feels impossible and deeply personal.It begins with the magician bringing out a special pack of cards and displaying it to the audience member, showing them how every card has an image of the earth, a plane, and a different place listed on it.“I am constantly traveling for work,” the magician states, “and I had this deck created to help me pick where to go next. Do you travel much? No? I f you could go anywhere in the world on vacation, where would it be?” Let’s assume that the participant says Japan.“You’d like to go to Japan? Fantastic! You could have selected ANY of these locations – Vietnam, Chile, Denmark, or something else, but you went with Japan. Check this out!”The magician riffles slowly through the pack and the participant sees the plane fly around the earth before finally displaying one name in its cloudy wake: JAPAN.Any of the 50 locations around the globe can be named, and the little sleight-of-hand required to perform WORLD TRAVELER is well within the ability of anyone.Includes the specially designed pack of playing cards (printed by USPCC) and a link to the video tutorial.This is the perfect icebreaker into performing, approaching a table, or have in your pocket when someone asks you to perform some magic for them.Jeff McBride says you can take the audience around the world from the palm of your hand.Banachek says “it’s Cardtoon grown up.”Alan Ackerman says, “I love it, I’ll take two.”Eric DeCamps says “That’s great, I’ll take one.”John Taylor says “Have the plane land in Australia, I want one!”All ready being used by pros around the world.
