West Coast - Travel Deals

One of the wonderful things about living in the United States is that the country offers a rich geographic diversity. You can spend time in, say, New England or the Southeast and feel like you have traveled to another part of the world without having to exchange currencies or learn a new language. You can be a stranger in a not so strange land

Exploring the country’s various regions can be a lot of fun and with the advent of cheapie airlines it is becoming more and more affordable to do the regional exploring by plane. Case in point, the autumn sale that Alaska Airlines is currently offering. Alaska has excellent prices on flights to destinations throughout the west coast of the United States and even into Mexico.

You can explore some of the nation’s finest cities like Seattle and San Francisco, or sample scenery outside Portland and Boise. You can see the stunning coastline or get your groove on in the mountains. For less than the cost of renting a car and filling it with a tank of gas you can make your way up and down the west coast. What a fun way to spend a few days this fall!

When you live on the left coast of the United States it is pretty easy to feel overlooked. The media, political and business heart of the country is on the East Coast and the people living there sometimes think of the West Coast as being a distant planet full of alfalfa sprouts eating hippies who live in tree forts and survive on compost scrapings. That is a fairly accurate description of me, but the West Coast is as diverse and as interesting as any part of the US of A. You should check it out.

For a limited time, Alaska Airlines is offering up some awesome deals on flights along the West Coast. Book your tickets now or you’ll lose your seat to another alfalfa sprouts eating hippie who hasn’t showered for a month and who thinks patchouli is a breath mint.
