The 4 Best Discount Travel Sites

Latest Update November 11, 2015

Travelocity finishes off the list of the best discount travel sites because they offer huge savings when you book a hotel, flight, and rental car together. Booking any travel package earns you a discount, but this particular type of vacation package can save you up to 45% on the total cost of your trip. In addition to these savings, there are also special promotions from time to time and details of these can be found on the Deals page of Travelocity's website. They also offer deals on popular activities near your destination, which is something you may want to think about if you're planning a family vacation. Travelocity also saves you money in less obvious ways by not charging you extra if you need to change or cancel your trip after you've booked it. They don't charge booking fees on single-carrier flights either. Few other travel websites waive these fees for their customers a ... Read more »

#best price for airline tickets #

Three low-cost airlines you should know about if you re looking for cheap tickets.

Nov 22, 2015 at 11:25AM

A big frustration for travelers in the past year has been that airfares haven't fallen as quickly as oil prices, making it expensive to get away on vacation. Prices have started to come down, though, and it's largely due to the growth of low-cost airlines serving the United States.

Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV ) was the price leader in the U.S. airline business for a few decades. It still offers attractive fares -- at least some of the time. But in recent years, it's been eclipsed by Spirit Airlines (NASDAQ:SAVE ) and Allegiant Travel (NASDAQ:ALGT ) among travelers looking for the cheapest flights.

It's always important to compare prices and check the fees for any airline before making your travel plans. Even low-cost airlines can sometimes have competitors underpri ... Read more »

Travel Auctions for Ultimate Adventure and Savings

Traveling is very fun, but before you travel you can also experience fun and excitement by bid to win travel auction. Travel auction sites have changed the way people look for travel deals online. Although there are other travel websites that can offer huge discount for airline tickets and travel packages, many people still opt for travel auction sites because they find happiness and fulfillment whenever they win a bid. All you need to do is to submit the highest bid of all the bidders and when the auction closes you can celebrate a win. This is one of the best and most exciting ways of securing a vacation adventure.

Equally famous for idyllic beaches and venerable temples that touch the soul, Thailand provides one of Southeast Asia’s most riveting travel experiences.

Thailand is a world-famous destination for backpackers, surfers, ecotourists, foodies, and anyone interested in surveying the colorful tangle of cultures composing Southeast Asia. Bangkok—the capital and largest city by many degrees—is an immersive, 24-hour-a-day adventure. Pay your respects to its venerable monuments, such as the Grand Palace, Wat Arun, the Vimanmek Mansion, and the Golden Buddha, and then dive into everyday Thai society along nonstop thoroughfares such as Khaosan Road. The northern city of Chiang Mai provides its own incredible atmosphere and a whole host of delights, including hundreds of Buddhist shrines. Now exported all around the world, Thai food—defined by, among many other attributes, a deft use of complex spices—finds perhaps its greatest expression in the street-market ... Read more »

The 3 Best Hotel Booking Sites

Latest Update November 11, 2015

Hotwire helps their customers save a considerable amount on their hotel reservations by keeping the name of the travel site you're booking with a secret until after you've purchased a room. Doing this enables Hotwire's travel partners to get rid of their unsold rooms while offering you significantly lower rates than those you'll find with many of the other top hotel sites. You'll still have the opportunity to view photos and details of the location you choose as well as customer ratings and reviews. The only thing you won't know until after you've booked is what travel partner helped you score that deal. This process has earned Hotwire a reputation as one of the best hotel booking sites in terms of overall customer satisfaction. Another reason Hotwire is such a great choice for the budget-conscious traveler is they have numerous trip-planning tools to help you locate the vacation dest ... Read more »

#book airline flights #

The Best Day of the Week to Book Airline Flights

The Perfect Time

Peter Greenberg, author of "The Travel Detective Bible" and editor of the Peter Greenberg Worldwide travel website, recommends that those looking to buy the cheapest plane tickets do so at 1 a.m. Eastern time on Wednesdays. This is when airlines typically change over their pricing for the next week, meaning that the older, cheaper fares are available for only 24 more hours before they are canceled.

How It Happens

Greenberg explains that airfare cycles start on Friday and can go two ways. First, a larger airline can raise its rates late that evening. By Saturday morning, most of the major airlines have followed. But if competitors don't match the fare, the airline that started the increase is likely to drop its rates back to close to the original level by Sunday night or Monday morning.

It also works the opposite way. In most cases, a smaller airline will ... Read more »

The 5 cheapest travel destinations right now

Get revenge on the global recession by taking these countries for less than they're worth.

Signs of global economic recovery are glimmering, but are they enough to justify taking a major vacation?

Well, it depends on where you live. Not everyone is recovering, making now the ideal time for those who are to visit some traditionally expensive or even off-limits countries.

Staying atop current trends in the travel industry, combined with knowing its jargon, can put a once-elusive holiday within reach.

For instance, look for words like “cost structure” (i.e. insultingly cheap local labor) during research, as well as “distressed inventory” (i.e. time’s running out on ... Read more »

#japan travel #

We can make another future Japanese art after 1989

A middle age man limps down the road. From the corner of his eye, he sees a young couple on the other side. Their eyes lit with confidence, laughing and clearly enjoying their company. The man looks away and moves on, trying not to dwell too long on the radiant smile of the couple on the other side of the street. It did remind him of another time, when he was a rising entrepreneur. He had a meteoric rise, but since encountered some turbulence. The middle aged man’s name is Japan.

In the eyes of many economists, Japan hit a rut in the 1990 s, one that it is repeatedly trying to get out of. The lost confidence and retrospective questioning has led some to yearn back to another era, one that is popularised by movies like Tokyo Story. Of course, Japan is more than the events of that decade. Its history throughout millennia is peppered with times of struggle and rebirth, one that shows its resilience and op ... Read more »

BCD Travel is piloting with a small group of corporate clients the use of automated hotel rate shopping tool tripBam and plans to expand availability this summer, the companies announced on Monday.

Four of the travel management company's clients soon will turn on tripBam, which takes a booking and continually shops for better rates at the same hotel and those in a user-determined cluster. Two other clients, Sapient and WellPoint, already have been using tripBam through Travelocity Business, which BCD Travel acquired last year. said senior vice president of strategic marketing April Bridgeman. The pilot should last a couple of months, during which time the TMC will examine the implementation process, seek additional automation opportunities and formulate a commercial agreement with tripBam, Bridgeman added.

The Cheap Flights Guide to End All Cheap Flights Guides

These days, amid rising fuel prices, shrinking competition and a growing travel base, a lot of traditional wisdom has flown out the window when it comes to finding cheap tickets. Advice like book early, or go through a third party or, especially, take a low-cost carrier is redundant, obvious or, at times, even harmful.

Rack up points so you can take to the skies.

Summer is the perfect time to travel. The warm weather probably has you itching for a nice vacation to the beach, where you can play in the sun and sip your favorite cocktail. Hitching a plane ride there can be easier, and cheaper, if you have the right credit card.

Some credit cards are better than others when it comes to giving you points for airline miles, says Bill Hardekopf of LowCards.com. Mileage cards are probably more abundant or lucrative than they were a few years ago, especially for people with excellent credit scores, he says.

In addition to the mileage, these cards come with a number of other perks. The most significant perk of airline cards is the frequent flyer benefits.

The Ebola Outbreak: Is It Still Safe To Go To Africa?

Over the last few weeks there has been extensive and often terrifying coverage of the Ebola outbreak in parts of West Africa, and our thoughts are with all those fighting this dreadful disease.

Whilst the coverage has highlighted that the disease is not airborne and can only be contracted by contact with body fluids from an infected person, we have had a number of people asking if it is safe to travel to South Africa, Tanzania, Botswana and other destinations in Eastern and Southern Africa.

The short answer is ‘yes – you can still safely travel to Africa’, however given the seriousness of the situation in West Africa we feel it is worth expanding on this. There are two key points to consider:

Africa is big – really. really big.

The Best Rental Car Deals for Road Trips

August 3, 2011

Rental car deals are in high demand with many travelers expecting higher air fare costs this summer. Some of those travelers will forge on, willing to pay the higher price to get to their dream destination. But with many Americans still unemployed or just recently having found new employment the high price of flying may cause them to consider vacations closer to home and send them in search of rental car discounts.

Taking a regional road trip in a rental car doesn t have to break the bank, especially when compared with flying across the country. Instead of increasing your maintenance costs or worrying if your car can survive a road trip, you borrow the rental agency s car for a known cost and call it a day. If the car has maintenance problems that weren t caused by an accident, it s not your problem. They ll swap you out into a new car and get you going.

The Best Time to Travel to Europe

Published/Revised December 12, 2012 By Terri Fogarty 6 Comments

The best time weather-wise to travel to Europe depends on what you like to do and where you are going.

Summers are hot, which is why most Europeans head for the beaches. Fall is generally rainier than in spring and winter is, well wintery.

Europe can be quite stormy in winter, but weather in northern Germany is going to be a lot colder than that in southern Italy or Greece. If you are a skier, cold weather is exactly what you want! And winter-time trips to experience the Christmas Markets are generally a bargain and January sales in Paris are fabulous. Obviously, there are fewer tourists in winter and when school is in session than the rest of the year. Be sure that there are no major shows taking place when you want to go, or hotels will be at high rates and perhaps even sold out. Your Travel agent can give you that info ... Read more »

The Gateway Travel Team

Dotty

Owner and Operator of Gateway Travel

Gateway Travel opened in 1976, right at the same location where our office still is today. I entered the picture when Gateway hired me in 1985, after having worked for 4 years with Madera Travel.

The Gateway team focused on improving what is still the core of our business: matching travelers’ budgets with their dreams. I know how important and heartfelt those dreams can be, as I had wanted to travel a great deal during the first few years of my career, but family and other obligations made that impossible at the time. Since those early years, I have had the opportunity to visit Fiji, Tahiti, the Cook Islands, and New Zealand, as well as Hawaii, Mexico, Jamaica and the US Virgin Islands (Obviously, my favorite travel destinations are anywher ...

Fifty years ago there was only one basic way to purchase airline tickets. You went to a travel agent, who would search the listings for all available flights and sell you a seat for your chosen travel date. The travel agency monopoly is gone now, and the average person can choose multiple methods for buying airline tickets. The best way for you to buy a ticket depends entirely on your particular travel needs.

The Best Travel Sites

Looking to plan and book a bargain getaway? Traveling in a rush for an emergency? The best travel websites will help get you where you're going at a price you can afford.

OB Roundup

Some days, when I remember life before the Internet, email, and smartphones, I cannot even comprehend how I traveled. Long (long) gone are the days of keeping an atlas under the passenger seat of the car, or rolling down the highway scanning motel sign after motel sign for "Vacancy." And travel agents? Forget about it. Travel websites have revolutionized how we plan, book, and even pay for travel.

Online travel services make it easy to research those big-ticket items, such as flights and hotels, but also the nitty gritty, such as the best seat on a particular airplane, or the best place to grab breakfast in Chicago O'Hare (the answer is Tortas Fronteras, in terminals 1, 3, and 5).

Most frequent travelers have a favorite travel webs ... Read more »

Coverage Types

Consumer looking to buy travel insurance for a cruise should understand the different types of coverage available. Trip cancellation insurance refunds the cost of a cruise if the consumer must cancel the trip. Trip interruption insurance covers extra costs a consumer may incur if they need to return home before the scheduled end of the cruise. Emergency medical care or transportation is often a separate insurance product. This insurance covers the costs of medical care or medical transportation in the event of illness or injury.

Cancellation Waiver

Cancellation waivers are different than travel insurance, but are worth considering. Cruise lines sell cancellation waivers direct to the consumer. A cancellation waiver allows the consumer to cancel the cruise without penalty or with a reduced penalty. Cancellation waivers typically expire 24 to 72 hours before a trip is set to begin.
