LatestHotelsDeals.com [LatestHotelsDeals.com] This site searches and compares Expedia, Hotels.com, Booking.com, Holiday Inn, Priceline, lastminute.com, Marriot and more so you can always get the best price.
www.kayak.com
www.yapta.com Yapta is still BETA... it cannot store information on most airlines. But it will search for your BOUGHT tickets as well, and get you a refund if the price goes down. This is the only site that will do that.

www.itravel2000.com Great booking bonuses (i.e. free giftcards, etc...)

www.farecompare.com

http://www.igougo.com/ [igougo.com] Opens up new airline sites in popups (for thorough searches)

http://www.usairwaysvacations.com/ has good vacation package rates that don't show up on the travel searches


http://www.allinclusiveoutlet.com/- have not seen any prices better than this site

www.tripalertz.com [tripalertz.com] this site has great deals they are somewhat new but have gotten a lot of press check it out
you do have to sign up first, but they will not spam you.

http://www.missiontravel.org/- If you are ever going on a humanitarian or mission trip (working with some kind of a non-profit), don't book your airfare until you've checked missiontravel.org first. With contracts from airlines for (oftentimes significantly) lower fares if it qualifies as a humanitarian flight. They can also book air originating from any country, not just the USA.

Where can I find a good deal on a Bahamas/Caribbean cruise? First time cruising, going with gf and their parents. Looking for 2 rooms. They are over 55 years old to qualify for the senior discount. Thanks in advance

we are going to LA in march for few days. I want to take my boys to Universal Studio Hollywood. I checked on ebay and a seller was selling a link to a website which gives $18 off discount plus second day free . Does anyone happen to know what website is it? The seller charges $3 for the link.

thank you for any help!! heart

Room 77 is another great site for hotel metasearch. They search sites from across the Web on one page (no pop-ups!!) and offer AAA and senior discounts. You can also see hotel floor plans and simulated Google earth views from rooms for many of the hotels. Pretty cool stuff.
