Things to remember when you travel
By Jeff Lakie
Traveling can be a lot of fun, but sometimes people are limited in their
traveling options because of a budget. Here are some ways that you
can save money when you traveling¡ which will let you bring home
more gifts for your loved ones!
1. Shop around. Different travel agencies may offer different
promotions, so making a few phone calls may help uncover
those hidden deals.
2. Be willing to travel in the off-season. Hotels are expensive and
overbooked during the busy season, but during the off-season
you'll find great deals on rooms and car rentals when you need
them, and hospitality staff who are more relaxed and attentive
to you.
3. Travel in a group. Many hotels and airlines offer group
discounts so if you and nine of your closest friends can arrange
your schedules to travel at once, you will enjoy significant
discounts.
4. Be willing to travel at the last minute. If you have a job that
allows you to drop everything for a vacation, you may be able
to travel at a great rate if you enjoy flying by the seat of your
pants. For example, if you contact a travel agent and an airline
and asked them about last-minute deals a day or two before
the weekend, you may be able to find an affordable travel
package that is much less than you would pay if you had
booked far in advance. This is because of cancellations. For
some reason, other people have not been able to go on the
vacation the book, so the hotel or airline or resort wants to fill
those seats with another paying customer.
5. Look for package deals. Often, companies in the travel and
hospitality industry will partner together to offer great holiday
packages. Look for these packages which make traveling
much more affordable than simply putting together the pieces
on your own. And much easier too!
Just because you're on a budget doesn't mean you have to stay home.
Traveling is possible with a limited budget. With a little legwork and
the willingness to be spontaneous, you'll be able to find and enjoy
affordable vacations.
