Best Discount Travel Site?

[+ BenjaminNicholas]

Howdy Guys~

 

Just a quick question for those who have definite picks as to which website offers the BEST & WORST in last-minute, discount packages... Both in the states & overseas.

 

Suggestions please, but also if possible, include WHY you find the site so __________ (insert adjective here).

 

 

Warmest Always,

There was an article posted about a similar topic on the "cheapest" online sites last month that was informative. I did a search and found it. I am not sure how to post a direct link, but the messege posting number was #63254 and titled "Mystery solved-Cheapest Online Site"

 

I am not sure which ones are the "best and worst" , but would also be interested in others experiences to find out. I have only considered a few package deals from expedia and travelocity but never booked a package that included both airfare and hotel. I always suspected it was more econonimical to book a cheap flight seperately and then find a cheap hotel seperately. American Airlines have been running low air fares recently and you can sign up for email notices when they go on sale. Also Travelocity has a similar rate drop alert that emails you when certain flights go on sale in the cities you want to fly to come up(once you sign up and create a profile of cities you are interested in for future travel).

 

hope that helps

Benjamen,I have found great packages by going to the airline sites and looking for their last minute packages.United Escapes is the one I am familiar with-you get miles,and maybe hotel credit also.I would think AA would have a similiar service-but check around.On United's site they have two vacation links-United Vacations and United Escapes-escapes is the one you want.

I have used Priceline and hotwire for vacation packages-OK if you do not care about miles(seldom givin on trips booked via theese sites)but I can USUALLY do as well or better going through United.

Good Luck.

I will private you with a a few links that might be helpful.

Ben check out http://www.travelaxe.com It's a program that you download onto your computer and it can search hotel, airfare and car rentals all in one window. When checking hotels it searches depending on the city 5 to 6 sites at once and lets you compare hotel prices by class and such. I have found that at least for hotels it offers much better deals then expedia or travelocity. Hope everything worksout for you.

 

Hugs,

Howdy,

 

I use Hotwire for hotels & Priceline for rental cars like clockwork. I've had some good luck with Travelocity for airline tickets but usually book through the particular airline.
