Shop Around for Cheap Travel Deals

The summer is gone and fall has set in on most of us around the country. Cooler weather will is on the way and before we know it, the holiday season will be upon us. I’m not much on the cool weather, but I am big on getting together with the family on holidays. My closest relative lives 150 miles away from me and my only son lives half way across the country. Being he is only 3 ½ years old, it is up to me to get there to see him during the year when I don’t have him for the summer.

I try to get there as much as possible, but sometimes work and this horrible economy prevents me from getting there as much as I would like to. That’s why it is very important to make travel arrangements as early as possible when you know you will be traveling over the holidays. This time of year is meant to be spent with family and especially your children if you happen to be divorced.

Nothing makes me happier than to see the excitement that my son shows when Santa is on his way, even if he is more amused by the box the present comes in instead of the actual gift. Even though traveling is expensive, there are steps you can take to minimize the costs.

1. Shop around for the best deals on flights and hotels. Kingfisher Red Booking and SpiceJet Airlines Booking offer great deals on flight tickets.
2. Ask friends and relatives for advice on hotels and places they have stayed
3. If you are driving, bring snacks and drinks along to cut the costs of eating out.
4. Make reservations at least 3 weeks in advance of travel
5. Make sure your vehicle is up to date on maintenance
6. Rent a fuel efficient car if you have a gas burner
7. Eat before you get to the airport. Everything in there and on the plane is expensive.
8. Choose a carrier that doesn’t charge for checked baggage.

These are just a few ways I have found to minimize costs while traveling. I’m sure you can think of a few more, but the most important thing is to make sure you spend the holidays with your loved ones.

That’s amazing! It always seem easier to draw on the computer then on paper. Really now, to color like that makes me curious, though everyone’s style of art is different.

The cheapest Airlines that fly between Australia and NZ are:: (in no order)

http://www.flypacificblue.com (they have happy hour prices at lunch time)

http://www.jetstar.com

http://www.emirates.com

http://www.qantas.com.au

http://www.airnz.com

Are you a student? Then try cheaper fares at http://www.studentflights.com.au

For a "one site search" to compare between them all go http://www.webjet.com.au – they charge a $20 booking fee, but once you know what airline and flight # is the cheapest, go back and just book through their airlines site. (it just saves time)

Air NZ also has another website called Grab-A-Seat. Sometime you can get a real bargain, $1 fares to $49. It's mainly travel within NZ, but some times they do real cheap deals to Australia. Best to check the site daily to see what special they have up there (changes all the time) see http://www.grabaseat.co.nz

You can use one of the internet travel search engines to do some initial research. I normally use either http://www.travelocity.com or http://www.orbitz.com. You can specify dates, a range of dates (+/- 3 days), or just specify you have no dates and want the best deals.

After that, it may be worth a try at checking the very airlines that are identified with the deals. Sometimes, the best deals are not posted in general websites and you can only get access to them on the specific Airline website either as a special or webfare.

Good Luck

But, I seen your web logs via Bing. Do you actively promote your blog? I have been studying starting my personalized blog, but I am not certain if I could find enough people to read it to make it worth my while. Thanks in advanced for your feedback.
