Travel Deals - Check Here Before Posting.

Many threads have been started requesting help in finding travel deals. Here are some locations that should be checked first before posting requests for additional assistance.

These are price comparison sites for airfare, hotels, cars and general travel deals:
www.airfarewatchdog.com
www.bookingbuddy.com
www.expedia.com
www.farecompare.com
www.flightorder.com
www.iexplore.com
www.kayak.com
http://us.lastminute.com/ - last minute travel deals
www.lonelyplanet.com
www.mobissimo.com
www.orbitz.com
http://www.pricegrabber.com/home_...romo_id=63
www.sidestep.com
www.studentuniverse.com - fantastic student prices (especially airline)
www.travelocity.com
www.travelzoo.com
www.qixo.com
farechase.yahoo.com

This website will give you reviews of hotels, resorts and vacations from people who have stayed there:
www.tripadvisor.com

If you want to try your hand at bidding for travel or lodging, try these out:
www.hotwire.com – price provided, no names (lodging or carrier)
www.priceline.com – tells you the lodging place or carrier, but not the price

Now, wouldn’t you like a cheat sheet for hotwire or priceline? Secret

Why not check these great sites out to help you?
www.betterbidding.com
www.biddingfortravel.com
www.bidlesstravel.com

If Southwest Airlines flies to/from where you want to go, try installing their notification software that provides great prices – it has no spyware and works great. While you’re there, check out their hot fares.
www.southwest.com/ding
www.southwest.com/hotfares

Here is a guide to getting a better price on car rentals:
http://www.betterbidding.com/inde...opic=17412

Coupons for car rentals from our friend mlhm5 @ FW:

If you want to talk travel points, miles and more, you must check out the forums at:
http://www.flyertalk.com/

If you want to pick your trip by quality (speed, comfort, ease) check out:
http://www.insidetrip.com/

Here are some new sites that use predictive technology to figure out how much the fare will go up or down. It is limited in its cities right now, but should be expanding in the near future.

Good sites for general travel information and deals:

Since Las Vegas seems to be one of the 'in' destinations lately, here are a few
Las Vegas specific travel info and discount sites:

Sparky�s Las Vegas Coupons: http://members.cox.net/sparky-dog8/Coupons.htm

And since Walt Disney World and Orlando are also some of the most desired/requested vacation places on here these days, here are a couple more travel and discount sites specifically for
Walt Disney World and Orlando/Florida:

Orlando Info.com: http://www.orlandoinfo.com/index.cfm
Orlando Sentinel : http://www.orlandosentinel.com/tr...s/orlando/

South Florida info and travel: http://www.southflorida.com/

And for car rentals, these sites usually have a fairly decent listing of current discounts and/or coupons: RentalCars.com [rentalcars.com] and http://www.rentalcarmomma.com/. And the mousesavers site that Brisar mentioned, above, usually has current rental car discount coupons and codes, which are not necessarily just for WDW.

Also, don�t forget that most cities' visitor�s/tourist centers have local travel guides and/or coupons that can be seen online or at least ordered, usually for free. Just do a search for your city/state and include �visitor bureau�, �tourist� or �travel�.

I too shall share:

I use this site to find last minute airfares http://www.smartertravel.com/air/search/

You can even subscribe to recieve an email telling you what the airfares are for that weekend (it comes on Wednesday)

And to elaborate on finding the best deals on travelocity, try the last minute specials here:
http://travelocity.lmdeals.com/?S...RAVELOCITY

If 2 of you are traveling, one of you get the flight and hotel, and the other get the flight and car !! Works great !!

The federal government has an unofficial but related group which collects travel deals for its employees, civilian and military. I don't know if any authority will request a government badge id when you buy, board, etc., but registration requires a .gov or .mil email address. For such people:

http://www.res99.com/nexres/start...elpage.cgi - DoD's Fedweek
http://www.govarm.com/ - other federal agencies
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/sh...p?t=312559 - amazing list of MR resources longer than this thread even

Requesting thread clean up for spammy posts in this popular thread.
