Remember the days when winter vacation meant flying to NY to go ice skating in Central Park, heading on a guys’ trip to Las Vegas, or taking the week off of work to relax on the beach in the Caribbean? In today’s economy, wonderful trips like these seem far-fetched and a thing of the past. However, Barbara Messing of Travel-Ticker.com, home to some of the best insider deals to the world’s favorite destinations, has come up with five easy ways travelers can experience an amazing and affordable winter trip, as long as they are in the know about discounts and ways to save on travel.
“The silver lining of the economic downturn is that there has never been a better time to find a good travel deal,” said Barbara Messing, vice president at Travel Ticker. “On Travel-Ticker.com, we have incredible discounts and deals that fit every consumer’s wish — whether you’re looking for cheap airfare to spend a traditional holiday season visiting grandma, or long for a spontaneous escape to an exotic locale.”
This year’s w-i-n-t-e-r tips include:
1) W — Win in Vegas with a 4-star Strip hotel for $55 per night
Stay at the 4-star Luxor hotel on the Las Vegas Strip for $55 per
night! Vegas experienced a boom over the last seven years as a
Renaissance destination offering exquisite dining and a buzzing
nightlife, but has been hit hard since the economic downturn. This is a
good thing for travelers because in order to entice customers who may
be skittish of vacationing in these economic times, hotels are betting
on discounts and throwing in ‘extras’ of dining, gaming, spa and show.
Travel Ticker has an exclusive: 4-star Palms Vegas resort for $79 a
night that comes with a $50 dining credit. See: http://www.travel-ticker.com/Destination/Las_Vegas
2) I — Imagine Hawaii Flight/Hotel Packages under $700
Yes you can! Hawaii is no longer out of reach. Since some airlines
stopped flying to Hawaii, more hotel rooms have become available and
are offering great opportunities for travelers. On Travel Ticker
there’s currently a 5-night hotel/flight package to Waikiki for only
$682. Knowing that flights alone to Hawaii normally come to $600, these
packages are a great bargain and allow you to stretch your vacation
budget further. Knowing that all of your travel expenses are covered up
front can allow you to enjoy your vacation even more. Right now,
Travel Ticker has many all-inclusive package deals, especially at
luxury resorts.
