First, try to book your flight and hotel together on a site like Travelocity or Expedia to save on both. If you do not see an affordable rate and you still have a few months, set up an alert avec”AirfareWatchdog or a similar service to know when a decent fare becomes available. If you listened to us to Tip # 1 and reside in the continental United States, see the situation revamped Greyhound bus (we’re talking about wireless and all), or intend to take a train or bus, or even drive to your destination. Do the math first if, sometimes, gas prices add up to more than airline tickets.
