Travel
Tips
10. Best travel search engines
For
Flights: Momondo.com
For Hotels:
HotelsCombined.com
For Cars:
Breezenet.com
9. Best cheap stay in America
Motel6-
New "Interior Corridors" remodel
8. A lesson for students and teachers
For
Teachers: B&B Organization- EducatorsTravel.com
For
Students: Fly on Student Standby- AirTranU.com
7. Avoid the new sneaky hotel fees "resort fees"
Major hotel chains will charge you
for the coffeemaker, pool, or safe.
Avoid this by asking the receptionist about the "Extra Fees" before you
book your room
6. Repositioning Cruises
Twice a year cruises cross the
Atlantic to begin their new season.
Six to seven days at sea for as
little as $40-$50 a night.
5. Never do the cruise line's shore excursions
Explore on your own or use small
touring companies
ShoreTrips.com
PortPromotions.com
4. Volunteer Vacations aren't free or even cheap
These organizations make sure you are rewarded for your helping hand
Habitat for
Humanity
The Sierra Club
3. Don't use money changers
Use a foreign ATM to avoid the large
fees, be sure to have a 4-digit pin number
2. User Generated Websites are "virtually useless"
Reviews are created by the hotels
themselves and are judged
by one bad or good experience.
Trust only the professionals.
