No problem, we’ve got the best deal for you. Lowest International Airfares Economy Travel
Really, is this possible?
Remember we were talking about the economic crisis and its effects on travel? One of the effects is linked to the flight prices. The lack of customers have made airlines aware of the fact that they need to lower fares and that’s exactly what we are talking about now.
Flights to Europe start at $550. Central-Eastern European destinations are the most affordable now. So if you ever dreamed of visiting Budapest, Prague or Bucharest, now it’s the perfect time to do it. Actually, Prague, Vienna and Budapest are excellent choices for late 2009 , whether you plan to check out the Christmas Markets or just enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere in the cities. Just remember that winter is quite nasty in this part of Europe and you need to pack accordingly.
Or you might want to check out the warmer European destinations. It’s not warm enough to wear a t-shirt, but at least you don’t need to worry about packing all those heavy winter coats. For example, hotels in Barcelona are cheaper in late November and you can enjoy the city without bumping into the hordes of tourists. Actually, the entire Southern Europe is a good choice now, whether you prefer Italy, Croatia or Greece.
Asia in my mind
Asia is an exotic destination, totally worth checking out. Whether you plan a short vacation or a long-term travel spree, the international airfare is affordable right now.
And if you don’t want to plunge directly into a new culture, start your explorations in Bangkok. By the way, hotels in Bangkok are affordable and you’ll be amazed to see how easily it is to tackle the city as a tourist.
Whether you love Vegas or hate it, or hate to love it and love to hate it like I do, Las Vegas has certainly been home to some jaw-dropping amazing travel deals lately. As one of the cities that’s been hardest hit by the economic recession (conventions that were once constant in the city have slowed way down and leisure travelers have stopped coming in such large numbers), Las Vegas has been struggling to fill up its hundreds of thousands of hotel rooms lately. This means that many of these
When we look back on recent history in a hundred years, we will probably divide time into “pre-internet revolution” and “post-internet revolution.” This not entirely unlike how we now look at history in terms of pre and post Industrial Revolution.
You may have dismissed Twitter as yet another online space for blatant self-promotion, but it turns out there is a whole lot more use for Twitter than simply keeping up to date on what Lindsay Lohan ate for breakfast or where Ashton Kutcher woke up this morning. Twitter can also be a powerful tool used for saving money and scoring travel deals. It may even change how exactly you go about making your travel plans.
Temperatures may be getting cooler outside, but deals on
Unless you’ve been living in a fallout shelter for the past 18 months, you are quite aware that we are in an economic recession. And, with news swirling around about layoffs, failed businesses, foreclosures and more, it may be no surprise that the travel industry is also hurting. The result has been lower airfares and cut-rate hotel rooms. In fact, an article from the Business Standard reports that
I love to hate Las Vegas. Or should I say I hate to love Las Vegas? Maybe it’s a little bit of both. While Vegas is certainly the home of over-the-top excess, the capital of tacky and the definition of so many things I claim to dislike (especially in a travel destination) there is just something slightly irresistible about Vegas. Maybe it’s the lack of open container laws or social acceptance of day-light drinking, but despite the huge number of lakes and fountains in the desert, sky-high prices and Dinseyland for adults feeling, I have to admit Vegas is a whole lot of fun. From great shows to highly rated restaurants, adding on to the list of positives for Vegas lately have been some of the absolutely insane travel deals to Sin City that have been popping up pretty much everywhere lately.
Summer is officially winding down, and with the cooler temperatures and changing leaves may come a sense of loss for those hot days full of sunshine, swimsuits and plenty of play time outside. If you are already mourning the loss of summer and are ready to start thinking about a fall or winter escape from the colder weather, there are some absolutely fantastic deals in the Caribbean right now. In fact, with all-inclusives around the Caribbean offering up
If you’ve been at all keeping on top of recent travel trends or looking for the best deals out there, you are probably aware that there are a few destinations that have been especially hard hit by the shaky economy—and Hawaii, Mexico and Las Vegas are among them. Despite Hawaii’s spectacular scenery, beautiful beaches, warm weather year-round and plenty of aloha spirit, Hawaii has been badly hurt in the recession. With hotel occupancy number down all around the islands, many resorts and hotels are offering up some pretty rad deals in hopes of attracting more travelers to the isles this year (and maybe stop some of the hemorrhaging happening in the travel industry there).
