Taking a vacation these days is not going to be cheap! In fact prices on fuel, lodging and air tickets are continuously going upwards and there is no end in sight. But don’t let this put a damper on your next family vacation as there are various ways on how to save money on travel and SAVE BIG!
Look for alternatives when booking a vacation and do a little comparison shopping (Compare Here) as prices for the same trip can fluctuate up to 50% depending on what travel source you decide to use. Smart consumers always read the fine print so be sure to do your homework and research the sites carefully before booking your travel.
Wal-Travel also recommends using TripAdvisor.com where you can read all reviews from real travellers like yourself before commiting to a deal of a lifetime. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true… it just might be! Make sure you read all the details and find out if the costs advertised includes all the taxes and service charges.
You can save a good deal by staying just a few blocks away from the beachfront or main attractions. During leisure destinations, try to book for midweek stays as rates are usually higher on weekends. However, at urban business hotels, rates can also drop on weekends as their bread and butter comes from the business travellers during the regular work week. If you can, book no earlier than a week in advance, unless it’s a holiday or high-demand period.
Also consider using online reservation wizards like Hotwire.com where you aren’t told exactly what hotel you’ve booked with until you’ve paid. This protects the higher end hotels from advertising the lower rates than what their own corporate sites advertise. Once you book and pay, all the required information will be forwarded to you and everything is guaranteed. This can save you quite a bit of money because now you aren’t paying the big brand prices.
TIP: If you’re not sure what hotel you are about to book when booking with Hotwire.com and you want to get a better idea of which one it is, simply read the hotel amenities and description and you can usually pin point what hotel it is when you do a google search of hotels in the area.
Airfare Booking - Advance booking & flyer rewards are keys
Booking early is more important than ever. Why? You’re going to get the best ticket rates with advance purchases and you will also be able to lock in those prices no matter how high the airline fuel surcharges go up and we all know that it will!
If a little bit of extra time is on your side, you can also save money on connecting flights as they could be a lot cheaper than flying to your desired destination directly without any stops. But keep in mind that you also run a greater risk of flight delays.
Also check out meta-search engines like TravelGrove, Kayak.com as they search and compare all the online rates for you. There are also other individual travel sites (Orbitz.com, Travelocity.com, Cheaptickets.com etc.) that offer their own deals of the week as they negotiate these specials fares with flight providers. Don’t forget to use your frequent travelers points (if you have one) as if you don’t use it, you run the risk of losing it.
Car Rentals - Shop around for the best deals:
Shop around and comapre prices. There are many car rental agencies out there (Budget.com, Enterprise.com, Thrifty.com etc.) so do your research and compare prices as you will be surprised as to how much cheaper the same car can be at a different location. Sites like Wal-Travel Car Search will search and compare all the car rental rates for you with just one click. Take advantage of their FREE SERVICE!
TIP:Make sure that you also check the allowable milage and see what’s included with the final price!
Remember, a little research can go a long way in saving you money during your next planned vacation!
