A Cozy Cozumel Vacation Deal

turtle.jpgFor an island that is merely 30 miles long and 10 miles wide and with the highest natural point a mere 15 meters above seas level, Cozumel has a lot to offer. The popular vacation destination located off the eastern coast of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula has an incredible amount of biodiversity and some of the best scuba diving you can find anywhere in the world.

Jacques Cousteau made the waters of Cozumel famous in the 1960s and as a result there was an explosion of scuba diving around its legendary coral reefs. In 1996, the government of Mexico also established the Cozumel Reefs National Marine Park, forbidding anyone from touching or removing any marine life within the park boundaries.

In addition to the fun you can have underwater, Cozumel offers some beautiful beaches and an active nightlife geared tourists those looking to party while on holiday.

Travelocity is offering a vacation package that is a tremendous value. You can fly to Cozumel and stay at the three-star El Cozumeleno Beach Resort for three nights for about the same as you would normally pay just for an airplane ticket. The resort is located on the northern hotel zone of Cozumel and is just five minutes from downtown and it is right across the street from an 18-hole golf course.

Arizona Spring Training Baseball Vacation Packages

spring-training.jpgThere is no surer sign that spring is on the way than hearing the crack of the bat, the cheers from the crowd and the sight of saliva being expunged from players’ mouths. Baseball is the great American pastime. If you are a baseball purist, or simply someone who appreciates sitting out in the sun eating junk food and drinking overpriced watered down beer, going to spring training will be something you’ll cherish forever.

There are two leagues when it comes to spring training baseball. There is the Grapefruit League in Florida and the Cactus League in Arizona. Both offer ample opportunities to get an up close and personal look at some of the best athletes in the world, while also allowing you to reintroduce yourself to the sun after a long winter of hibernation.

Alaska Airlines has a nice vacation package deal to watch the Seattle Mariners play in Peoria, Arizona. Don’t worry, even if you aren’t a Mariners fan you can take advantage of this offer and go watch another team in the Cactus League or simply go to Arizona and play a few rounds of golf.

For those who prefer the action in the Grapefruit League, you can do a quick search for cheap plane tickets to Florida.

Los Angeles to London Flights for under $350

brolly.jpgLeave it to an airline from New Zealand to come through with the best deal on flights from Los Angeles to London to hit the World Wide Web in a long, long time. Air New Zealand is offering up the goodies for $348 round-trip plus taxes and all that other jazz that will probably make it closer to $400, which is still a very, very reasonable prize for a flight from the west coast of the U.S. to London.

The only hitch is that you have to travel before May 31, 2007, which isn’t really a hitch at all because now is the off-season for London tourists. Sure you’ll likely have to deal with a bit of rain and you’ll have to pack an extra layer or three of clothing for the trip, but the payoff will come when you go to tour the Tate Museum and you and a few slacker member of the royal family are the only ones there.

What else is there to do in London this time of year besides shivering in the dampness? The London Travel guide offers up all sorts of suggestions, while also keeping you abreast of the current happenings in one of the greatest cities on this or any other planet.

Air Deals to Veni, Vidi, Venice!

veni.jpgTrivia buffs and fans of history will know that it was Julius Caesar who coined the phrase “Veni, Vidi, Vici”, “I came, I saw, I conquered” before he invented the Caesar salad. This expression is often apropos of travel bargain hunting on the Internet. Sometimes you come across a deal that makes you feel like the self-created travel agent hero that deep down inside you truly know that you are. And sometimes you need a little help slaying the cost giants. We’re here to help.

Today’s offering is a round-trip flight from New York to Venice, Italy for the great price of $513. Venice is affectionately known by those who love her as the “Queen of the Adriatic” and the “City of Water”. It is not so affectionately known by those who have seen her during the peak summer months as the “City of Innumerable Tourists all of which are wearing Day-Glo and wearing a Belly Pouch”.

We kid, because we love.

Venice is awesome and its awesomeness is even more evident if you travel there during the non-peak summer season when you can practically have the canals all to yourself. The current deal fills that bill and it will enable you to come, see and conquer one of Italy’s jewels.

Awesome Amsterdam Vacation Package

vac_sep_2003-031.jpgWe do a fair amount of searching around to get an idea of the best deals on international air tickets and it isn’t very often when Amsterdam comes to the top of the list. The Dutch city is a popular tourist destination, of course, but unlike London it doesn’t see its share of super, duper bargain flight deals from the United States.

United Airlines is bucking the trend by offering up a tremendous package on flights and hotel stays in Amsterdam. Package deals are not always everyone’s cup of tea because you don’t have much say about which hotels you get to stay in, but in this instance forget your hesitation and go for it. The deal is for a round-trip flight and a four-night stay in Amsterdam. The $629 price tag from New York is what you would usually find for just the flight alone. The deal extends to the west coast where you can get the same offer from Portland, LA, Seattle and San Francisco for about $800. This is one Amsterdam package that is hard to beat and when you through in an additional 2,500 United Miles it is enough to make me want to book a flight before I even finish typing this sent…

Awesome Amsterdam Deal
Book a flight and hotel vacation to Amsterdam and save up to 45% and earn 2500 bonus miles!

PS – If you do go to Amsterdam you might want to think twice before posting your pictures from the sex museum on the Internet.

Cheap Prices on Flights to Moscow Should Warm you Up

russia_cold-1.jpgMark Twain famously once quipped that the coldest winter he ever experienced was a summer in San Francisco. Mr. Twain must not have gone to Moscow in February.

There is no denying that the Russian capital is a cold, dark and cold place during the winter months. If you aren’t careful, you’re spit will freeze in midair and you’ll spend most of your time walking around with an icicle hanging from your mouth. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise, there is nothing attractive about frozen snot.

There is something attractive about Moscow, regardless of the time of year. The place is booming with new money and new ideas changing some sections of the city overnight. There is still plenty of grime and crime to make one feel nostalgic for the old days, but after you drop a few hundred dollars at one of the fancy new nightclubs you’ll think that you are in New York. Only you won’t be able to feel your toes while you wait for a cab.

Scandinavian Airlines is the place to go for the best deals on flights to Moscow this winter. Who knows, maybe you’ll fall in love with the place and want to stay for awhile and teach English abroad.

Crazy Good Deals on Flights to Mexico, Germany and Puerto Rico

happy-pills.jpgSomeone must have slipped some happy pills in the coffee of the United Airlines executives because they are doing their best to make the world a happier, more smiley place. The airline has some seriously good deals on international flights with some especially tasty prices on flights to Mexico, Germany and Puerto Rico.

How tasty? Try finding a cheaper flight than the one from Indianapolis to Cancun, Mexico for $196 round-trip. That is crazy talk. Makes me almost want to move to Indy.

The Mexican good times can also be found in Chicago where flights to Mexico City are being offered for less than $300 and in Sacramento where you can fly to Los Cabos for $202 round-trip.

The party continues with all kinds of good prices on flights to Germany. There is New York to Munich for $328, Philly to Berlin for $319 and Pittsburg to Frankfurt for the incredible rate of $301. Sprechen Sie Savings?

For my friends keeping it real in the 503 area code, you need to get yourself over to Priceline and snag one of these flights to San Juan, Puerto Rico from Portland for $296. You know that offers like these won’t last so get yourself into gear and purchase your flights before January 9, 2007 or before those happy pills wear off.

Aloha means Hello, Good-Bye and Great Fares to Hawaii

triathlon_swim270.jpgThe New Year brings new hope and all those new resolutions that you’ll probably break after about a week. If one of your resolutions is to get into better shape, perhaps you could set your sights high and start training for the Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii. Doesn’t a 2.4 mile swim followed by a 112 mile bike and topped off by a 26.2 mile run sound like an ideal way to spend a day?

Personally, I get exhausted just watching those athletes killing themselves on television, but now it is possible to see them up close and personal for not so much money. Aloha Airlines has some tasty spring fares that make the enchanted islands of Hawaii that much more enchanted. You can fly from Oakland to Kailua-Kona, home of the Ironman Triathlon, for less than $400 round-trip. Even for a destination that has frequent airline deals, this is a pretty good one.

Moreover, Aloha Airlines also has discounted flights between the Hawaiian Islands, making it possible for you to cover even more ground than one of those triathletes. Whether it is for sport, relaxation or simply to escape the fact that you failed miserably with your get in shape resolution, Hawaii is one place you should be resolved to visit this year.

All the best to each and everyone of you in 2007.

Say Aloha to Great Fares to Hawaii!

The Best Deals on Hostels in Honolulu

Do you really need any incentive to fly to Tahiti?

postcard-tahiti-tahitian-dancer-vahine.jpgTahiti is one of those destinations that make you feel warm and fuzzy just when you hear the name mentioned. Chances are you haven’t been there, but if you close your eyes and try to picture it you probably can. What you are probably envisioning are white sandy beaches, crystal clear blue waters, palm trees, scuba diving and topless women. Sadly, I must report that the residents of Tahiti do not go topless these days, but all those other images that came to your mind are very much true. If paradise was lost, it has been found in Tahiti.

One thing to be aware of is that no matter where you go in French Polynesia, you are going to end up spending a lot of money. The cost of visiting paradise does not come cheap and those who live on the islands will do their best to leave your wallet with little more than lint balls.

The expenses of visiting Tahiti make it all that much more important to save money on your flight there. One of the best deals to come around the pike in a long time is one being offered by Air Tahiti Nui on flights from Los Angeles to Papetee, Tahiti. This offer only last until January 3, 2007 so you’ll have to act fast to get it. Otherwise give the famous Booking Buddy a try and see if you can save some money before you discover the beauty that is Tahiti.
