Good Winter Travel Season Deals Still Available
"Put in now for end-of-January trips, but don't expect deals around Presidents' Day weekend," says travel expert Pauline Frommer in a Reuters article.
President's Day, like many other holidays, is a popular time for leisure travel and a peak booking of snow and cold-related adventures. The best hotel and resort rooms and money-saving packages, offered far in advance to jump-start bookings, are gone. Other discounted promotions will be few but some suggested sources can help.
"Check ski package deals from Southwest Airlines and Alaska Airlines," says Frommer. "They both offer good lift ticket and lodging deals - especially if you're willing to go mid-week instead of weekend."
Looking to go away from the snow and cold? Land-based resorts, some all-inclusive, are a possible choice along with cruise vacations where unpacking once, we see several destinations on our floating hotel. The winter season brings cruise ships from Europe and around the world to luxuriate in the Caribbean sun. Still, the Caribbean is not the only warm place open for business over the next few months.
"I've found some of the best values to be in Central America," suggests Frommer. "There are fairly decent air fares there. They've risen less than other parts of the world. Guatemala and Belize have some good hotel deals and there are some great adventures to be had there."
