Getting A Deal Makes For A Better Holiday

admin — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 06:00:59 +0000

There are many expensive ways to travel and take vacations. It’s funny how much more enjoyable travel is when you save money and still stay and travel in luxury.

For example, did you know that you can be sitting beside someone on an airplane and pay 1/10 of the price they did (for the same seat)

Or, you can stay at hotels for free, and even get paid to travel. For more ideas check out the discount travel reviews here.

Can a train engineer’s wife get a discount to travel with him?

admin — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 07:51:05 +0000

I want to travel with my husband & thought maybe there was a discount for me because I’m the engineer’s wife.

Depends on the operating company. Some do and some don’t. What you cannot do is ride with him in his cab because that would be a serious safety violation

Travel Agent discount for IATA and IATAN agents at Four Seasons?

admin — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 12:12:05 +0000

I am an IATAN agent and my wife is an IATAN agent, what kind of discount would I or my wife receive at Four Seasons, specifically the one in Bora Bora. I tried contacting them but I think they don`t check their e-ail down in French Polynesia, but maybe the discount is the same for all Four Seasons hotels.

Would you join a discount travel membership club for $250?

admin — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 04:59:15 +0000

What is included in this club is, lifetime access to promotional deals, one click access to discounted travel deals. What really intrigued me though, is, upon signing up you instantly receive 6 nights/7 days vacation in a 3-5 Star Property (excluding taxes) anywhere in the world.

So, would you?

Does anyone have a buddy pass!!

No one is going to give a buddy pass to a stranger. Also if someone I knew asked me for a buddy pass to travel on those dates I would tell them no. There is a very small chance you would get on a plane as a stand by passenger on a buddy pass. I would say just try a lot of different website comparison shop. Try travelocity, cheaptickets, orbitz. The longer you wait the higher the prices are going to go up.
