I have been doing my research in the past two months, for my trip going out on 5/10/08 and returning on 5/26/08... from Seattle to Hong Kong.

The cheapest I have seen so far is around $1000~ for HK. @992 to be exact, with vayama.com

And I've heard you can get tickets to either places around ~$600-700 on the cheaper end!
I personally prefer the Star Alliance (United, Asiana, Air Canada etc) cuz i have miles with them..

Anyone have any good advice? or sites that I should visit?

I have already check the usual priceline/vayama/statravel and even united, eva, china airline and etc..

Thanks tons!!

homany- when I was researching my China flights, I saw vayama. They offered the best prices. I sent an email to Chris Elliott (travel writer, web info site). Vayama is located in a mailbox in Las Vegas and I did not want to get scammed by a company who sells timeshares, flights, and gold bouillion on the side. (I am not saying that they do- I am just saying I don't want to do business with a unknown) Chris wrote back- never heard of them, be careful. That was the day I decided to go with Untied and pay the price.

Still haven't been able to find a good price for our trip to Butte, MT from Birminham, Al. We are needing to leave Fri. Jun 27 and return Sun. July 6. Needing three tickets, two adults one child, the best I have found is over 650 pp...about 2100 after all taxes. I have tried surrounding airports in AL, ex Nashville, TN..Huntsville, AL and Bham. Any help would be great, also cheaptickets keeps showing a price of 590 but when I try to book the flight is says sorry that price no longer exists or something to that extent. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Have you tried Priceline.com [I]Name Your Own Price[I]? If the time you leave or arrive is flexible (you can choose to leave on specific days) than you can get some great deals. I've had nothing buy great experiences.

Example:
San Diego to Seattle $180 for a last minute flight vs $300+
Extended Stay America $30/night vs $198/night
Hilton Seattle $90/night vs $180/night
Hilton San Diego/Mission Valley $60/night vs $160/night
Budget Intermediate Car Rental $13/day

i've used vayama twice and had no problems, the only downside is that you get your confirmation 24 hours after you purchase on their website so you have to factor that in when making plans

Also, I have a couple of choices thru Government Employee Travel for really good lodging and would appreciate opinions on which is best from anyone that lives there or has been there.
Thanks from NC!

I think May is considered mud season in Vermont. The snow will be melting and it will be very muddy in the mountains. On the plus side, you should be able to get ridiculously cheap lodging. I'm not 100% certain, but I'm sure somebody with more knowledge than me will chime in.

Not from VT but NH. I live 2 hours from Stowe. VT/NH have 3 seasons Mud, Bug and Winter. Why Stowe?

Save $20/night on Hotels at expedia.com when you use your MasterCard. Offer is good in all cities on select hotels. A large number of 3 star+ hotels in Montreal have discounts, as well as Boston. Though, some cities like NYC, YMMV, but many deals exists.

I have saved a couple good links over there that I used the most for airfare searches.. good luck and happy traveling!

heres the links also...
you should DEFINITELY play around the dates as Monday-Thursdays are the cheapest to travel on, and weekend travels (going both outbound or inbound may be a little more expensive)

http://www.bestfares.com/ <= similar to farecast, except int'l (you can see how much it varies between EVERY day of that month if you do the search by months)
http://www.farecast.com/ <= gives alot of price quotes/ideas as to when its good to travel
http://www.vayama.com/ <= have given me most of my best results so far (im traveling thru asia myself)
http://www.kayak.com/ <= i like the fact that kayak shows where they are the cheapest and u can be rerouted to there.

http://www.statravel.com/ <= if you are under 25, there are alot of good deals for a "student" rate..

or you can do it auction style on

Download Southwest's Ding (from their website). I've found fares from SFO to San Diego at $35 each way. I've also got real affordable flights to Seattle and Las Vegas this way. I'm looking for ones to New Orleans this summer! They usually have $99 fares, which I hope they'll have again or maybe cheaper. :)

from Southwest's website, download their own application called Ding! You'll get daily notices from them on any specials of which I've seen LAX/Burbank $41 airfare from either Oakland or San Jose. I've been able to fly to San Diego for $39 each way and a deal to Seattle for $59! I'm still looking for their special fares to New Orleans this summer. Good luck.

Ok I am trying to find cheap travel to Whitefish Montana from September 18th to the 21st (Possible to fly out the 17th if really needed but rather not or 19th not as big a deal but I am stuck with getting back to Houston on the 21st). I have two options that I am trying to work out.

First option is flying out of Houston (either airport) to Kalispell and I am seeing cheapest of 473 from Delta. This is round trip and within the days I need to be within.

Another option is houston to spokane and then driving the 4+ hours to Kalispell. This flight is 355 or so from southwest. Now added onto this is the gas which I took we would need 25 gallons round trip at an estimate of 4.5 to 5 bucks a gallon (guessing it keeps going up) split between 2 giving around 50-70 bucks each added to the flight.

With these prices I am finding I am inclined to pay just for the direct flight as it saves a good amount of time and honestly the total difference does seem worth it for the driving. I was hoping anyone else here who knew the work-arounds could check and see if they could find anything better as if we can save 100 + bucks on the spokane flight (or hey save on the direct flight) I would much appreciate it.

Also going through cheapflights.com I found some $326 RT flights but only for specific dates and it seems for 6-7 days which I can't make (the dates I am looking for aren't currently up yet). I was wondering if anyone knew when they updated the said dates and if its possible to just travel within that week time instead of the entire week.

thanks any help is appreciated.

An alternative to driving from Spokane to Whitefish would be to take Amtrak (http://www.amtrak.com). The Empire Builder runs through there, and the fare would be about $37 each way (less if you're AAA or there's a special). That compares favorably with renting a car in Spokane.

Key West in July are you crazy? I was there in early may and almost died (good thing I love the heat). We flew into FLL and drove down. Long drive but we flew for $150 each (Southwest) and gas was less than $40 for the entire week. We had a compact car but there was plenty of room for 3 adults. Flights to Key West were over $400 from Boston.

I am looking for a cruise trip that is going to Alaska from Seattle.... in particular, one that is 7 night (offered by Holland America Line - Westerdam)

What I am looking at is one that runs between 8/31/08 - 9/7/08.

Departing from Seattle, WA and obviously going through Glacier Bay, and then a few stops @Alaska... hitting Victoria BC before returning.

Anyone have any suggestion or coupons that can help me out? I looked and the best deals is on Alaska Airline (or orbitz) and they are around $599 (for Interior), and I was curious if there is any $ off coupons for either, Alaska Airline or Orbitz... or another way to book these Interior rooms for a lower price (or better ones for a low cost as well).

Thanks in advance all SD'ers!

CheapOair.com (http://www.cheapoair.com) offers unbeatable deals on military travel. Use coupon code MILIT10DEC31207 and get $10 off on all flights bookings on around the world travel destinations.

Coupon Code - MILIT10DEC31207 (http://www.cheapoair.com/Default.aspx?tabid=3305&fpaffiliate=slickdeals&fpsub=MILIT10DEC31207SEO)

Valid through - 31 Dec 2008

CheapOair is a horrible site. Their "base" airfare might seem a lot cheaper than other sites such as Travolocity, but their taxes are outrageously expensive. So when people think that they are saving $100 from booking through them, they are actually paying $200 more than other sites for the exact same flight.

Hi
When we went to NY we did exactly that. We did the double decker bus. It takes you all over you can hop on hop off and are able to see the whole city quickly. Most broadway shows have a drawing for first row seats for 20.00 dollars. Head to the theaters a couple hours before the show and ask when they do the drawings. I saw Wicked this way. It
was awesome and I saved some money. Try this site for coupons

Several hotels have promo codes for discounts and free meal tckts but I assume you can't use them and book through expedia or a travel site. The best deal I found was a hotel/flight/car package with the Riveria on expedia for $998 yesterday evening but I was waiting to confirm with my parents and now the price is $1195 :mad:

I'd prefer to stay on the strip in a 3 star or better and pay under $1000 total. Any insight or details as to how to use hotel promo codes through third party booking would be greatly appreciated. My fiance and I are not well off, and this is why we opted for vegas. Thank you so much!!!!!!!

3 nites at Circus Circus is about $150 (book now when there is one night free - vegas.com)
Car - not needed. Use the Deuce city bus for $5/day/person - car rentals are $20 a day if you want it sidestep.com (parking sux)

Flight - should not be more than $350 - sidestep.com had a ton of options.

Total = Flight (700), Hotel (150), car/bus (60) = $900.

Depends on your schedule.

The bus will always be $45 (one way) and buses depart daily.

Southwest does have cheap flights but you would have to fly on particular days and book weeks in advance.

The owners at The Chimes are great folks! They are perfect hosts to this wonderful town. We rented 2 rooms that connected and their rates were affordable - though I can't recall what it was at this time. If they have no rooms available, try Beau Sejour. We stayed there several years ago and also love it - they were booked during our summer trip (their also a B&B). There's a funky New Orleans style hotel - old with a central courtyard - called Olivier House located right on Bourbon Street. We've stayed there and also liked it. I've read mixed reviews on this place, but I would recommend them.

Where can I find cheap package(all- inclusive)?

Unfortunately I can't tell you packages because I don't trust travel agents. I can tell you some good advice about that area if you are on budget. Sometimes it pays just to put together your own itinerary and with some planning you can save almost as much money with increased flexibility.

Playa Del Carmen is smack in between Cancun and Cozumel. You can access both cities from Playa and it's cheaper than either one of those cities overall for hotels (although it's quieter than Cancun).

I stayed at Fiesta Banana for $50/nite in June of this year. It will be more now because of high season. Take the ferry from Playa to Cozumel around $25 round trip. The ferry's leave every hour on the hour. Don't worry if you just miss the ferry and the next one doesn't leave for another 2 hours (which happened to me). You can get a refund on your ticket and use the money to buy another ticket for the very next ferry which will likely leave in about an hour.

From Playa you can take the ADO bus from the bus station to Cancun for like $8 or something like that. It takes about 40 minutes. Taxis are cheap, do not pay more than $3.50 US equivalent to go anywhere in Playa, at least thats the rule I used when I was there.

When I stayed in Cancun I stayed at the Radisson for $100/nite. It was very nice with a very good restaurant inside. It's far from the strip, but the cost to ride the bus is next to nothing, like the equivalent of .75 cents US or something. It's a good 15-20 min bus ride to where the action is in Cancun but it's worth it as you'll pay through the nose if you stay there.

maybe a stupid question but. I have been looking for a deal on airfare to Reno from Orlando jan 26 to the 29..... I noticed an offer hotel. Now it says double op, but all other info is right 1 person round trip room 3 nights. Like airfare $233 with room says $350. But I am just 1 not double. Will the price double up on me? Or hotel demand the price for 2+ people?

Hi all, looking for ideas for a fun family vacation. We live on the east coast, and I figured if i'm willing to spend $1200 for a condo at the beach for a week, we might as well do something a little more fun. I will be traveling with 2 children, one of which will be 10 months old at the time the other is a 9yo. Date 8/15-8/22, and trying to keep hotel/air under 2k for 4. TIA!!

If you are looking for a hotel in Europe, this site is awsome. It will pinpoint the location for you as well. I have used it before...

www.venere.com

I second that. It is THE BEST. I travelled in Europe, customer service was superb from the people, even I had a chance to cancel on a hotel, because of change of plans, for no fee. Great selection of hotels, all rated by visitors! So must read, and make sure you write feedback to help the rest.
One drawback, hotel status is not updates. I booked a price for a hotel, when i arrived there, it was UNDER CONSTRUCTION, but that was not reflected on the webiste. He transferred me to another hotel -- which I was not too happy about it. A bit bait and switch

Over all great website, and I highly recommend it.

cheers.

Best deals would be a toss up between
Singapore Airlines
and Korea Airlines.

Singapore Air flies only from S.F. (though can comes back to LAX? Something like that) While Korea goes through LA. So I would look for Singapore Airlines (through their website) for International, how to get to SF, you need to look that up.

I prefer Singapore Airlines - really nice comfort, service, food. It might cost you 80 dollars more, but it is worth it.
Korean Air has been always the cheapest to Seoul.
Both arrive at the new Inchon airport instead of Kimpo.
You can also check out Asiana airlines, they are so-so.

My preference to Korea would be.
Singapore Airlines, Korean Airlines, or Asiana. All 3 have a major hub there.

Anyone know of any yearly sales or cheap flights to get on? Cheapest I've found so far is about $1200 RT.

Has anyone used the http://www.riolasvegas.com/PackageSearch.do?showAll=Y&propCode=RLV# that is available with all of the Harrahs properties? The deal is that you stay for at least three nights, pay the package rate (which is usually a little under the normal rate), and when you check in they hand you a $300 airline voucher which you can then use to book a later flight back to Vegas by calling their special phone number (you also have to book another three night stay when you come back).

It sounds like a great deal, but I'm wondering:

- can you get a cheap discounted airfare when you purchase through that number?
- do you get your best Total Rewards room rate for the second hotel stay?
- are there any other snags that make this promotion less attractive than it seems?

if anyone has any info (or if you've used the package and you have the "special" phone number), let me know.

Thanks for the website. I was able to get a discounted ticket for this weekend. STATravel was cheaper but requires you to be a full-time student with a ISIC (Int'l Student ID Card), but Student Universe doesn't require it! I'm a part-time student. They said they verify your student standing though and you may have to submit proof if they don't get it from the University.

This is cheap if you buy your ticket 14 days in advance but the deals are going fast every time the gas prices go up the web site removes a lot of those discounted tickets as much as 50% and they have a "Greyhound rewards program" when you buy your first ticket after registering for their site must do this first and get a member number you get 10% off your next purchase of a ticket. One way is 50% off. Then the way back is 50% off then apply the 10% ticket. real deal but takes 3 days if you have this its expensive for hotels along the way however to shower. If you do not plan ON this web site you can pick your schedule and know which town the bus stops at and reserve the hotel is kind of hard. I hate being poor you have to pick all time at pennies never gets any better morbid have to pick at the time the calendar and the web now
\
Go to Greyhound.com and scroll to the bottom of the screen and you will see little boxed ads and the 14 day advance tickets are in one of these boxes click on it and type in where your going to and stuff you can pick from all the schedules they have that day going and returning even print the schedules of each town greyhound bus stops at and what time how much of a break you have to stretch and get snacks. We brought our own snacks cheaper this poor thing been a long time we had to coney island roll up sandwiches with potatoe sticks in a cooler. never drove at night too hard to see at pan american pilots are right on the pin needle with time on the dot with the dark no driving or travelling at night safer. no semitractor trailers parked in the air while flying fighter pilots either voodoo and maverick ever heard of them?

Right now Expedia has no booking fees for all flights, so that should save you about $10 or $15.

Hey everyone,
My stepdad's brother passed away last night/this morning and my mom and step dad are having to charge this trip so I am trying to help them book a hotel room and save some $.
I have a priceline twitter coupon from the promo a while back ago but it's for a three star hotel or higher and the area they need to stay in only has 1 or 2 star hotels. I don't think that will work will it? Also is this coupon now expired?

Beyond that...I need help finding them an inexpensive room from June 7 thru June 10 (checkout on 10th)

This is in Amherst,Ohio near Loraine (Sp?)
they prefer Amherst since they know the area and everything is right around there apparently. They said that they stayed at Days Inn there before and that is ok for them is there any way to get a better deal than $51 a night there? I have never bid before so I am afraid to do that for them without knowing a thing or two :D Any help is truly appreciated in helping me help my parents get to the funeral and spend as little as possible but be in a nice place.

One other question..if you bid on a hotel and you dont get the one you want and the one you do get ends up being dirty or a dump what are your choices at that point? Are you stuck with the room anyway?

Sorry I live in Denver.

Cheapest trip would be LV, followed by SF, then Miami being the most expensive.

Go to Travelocity.com and under the "Vacation packages" tab type in DEN -> LAS (Las Vegas).

Once you get your search results, sort it according to the cheapest price first. For $222 per person you can stay at Circus Circus casino which is located on the Strip. This price includes all fees and taxes.

Why is it that a lot of people post questions here, but they never come back to check for answers?

I really feel that I wasted my time answering questions for people. You guys are on your own.

Try bidding for it on priceline.com, you might be able to get it at $70 (or lower).

Hi all, I dont know if this is the right spot or not... A bit of a story behind this, but it said to post as much detail as possible....


I am in a BIG bind. My girlfriend whom I have been with for over 3 years and love very much became very ill last year :( Sadly, like many of us young people our here in the US, she did not have great health insurence so the costs would have been in the hundreds of thousands potentially for her care.

She was born in Germany, and has lived in the US for about 10 years now since she was a teenager. Shes gone to college here, worked hard, managed a local small business, and is a great woman all around. But sadly because of cost, she had to go back to germany for over a year now because of the social health care system they have... The good news is she has been treated and is doing better, I will be able to see her in aug, and she can stay here for 6 months :O before having to go back for a while...

I am not rich, and she of course has not worked not for quite a while... so money is quite tight, as a teacher I dont make allot. I will also have to help her quite a bit to get back on her feet, as she has quite a bit of debt from this ordeal.

I am looking for a flight around Aug 19-Jan 9 She would be flying fron Frankfurt Germany to San Francisco. We have scoured the net, and the lowest we are comming up with is around $1000....

There are great deals for US to Europe we have found, and tons more for within the US. But sadly we cannot find any deals for flying her out here. I am wondering if anyone can help in any way... It would be SO much appreciated. I am willing to do what I can if there are any deals out there... discounts, trades... travel exchange programs... any little bit would help!

Thats slick dealers! Any help is truly appreciated! On both my part, and hers! :woot:

Looking for a deal from MSP to PDX starting Aug 2-3 and ending Aug 16-17. The best deal on it appears to be about $400 which just blows my mind. Looked on travelocity, priceline, cheaptickets, orbitz, and more.

I'm thinking of doing the bid thing to see if i can get something better that way, but i thought i might try asking slickdealers first.

any thoughts guys?

I've searched the travel sites. Unfortunately, none are designed for people that don't know where they want to go. I want to go abroad.. anywhere. I'm looking for this month going to Mexico or Canada from IND or CHI. Schedule is totally open! I'm looking for cheap as can be.

What about FAIRMONT in Montreal, Quebec, at $119 ???? Sounds like a great deal to me! They have a fantastic Friends & Family promotion going on until December. That allows you to book ANY Fairmont hotel or resort in the world with the following Promotional Code, and Booker ID# and you will be able to make reservations at an EXTREMELY low and affordable rate on Fairmont.com

1) Go to: fairmont.com to check for availability at the hotel and input NFAF into the Promotional Code field.

2) After you input the promotional code you can then see the available room types and the corresponding lowered rates for whichever hotel or resort you please.

3) Once you select your room type preference, on the following page (step 3) input the Booker ID# 85021032, which is an employee ID # that you recieved the discount from (since it is "friends" and family rate)
Then you are finished!

You might wanna check some other Fairmonts in Canada or Mexico, you'll be able to get some awesome deals there as well!

I need someone to help me find plane tickets. Jacksonville, Fl to Seattle Washington for one week over Thanksgiving. Don't matter the exact dates as long as it is 5 to 7 days and we are there for Thanksgiving. It is two adults/one child(5 years). The cheapest I'm finding it like $400/person. Can anyone help me find a slick deal?

I am interested in flying from DC or NYC to Amsterdam and then back from Rome to either DC or NYC. Anyone have any experience in getting to europe cheaply or what I should pay for this multi-city flight. I just do not want to end up paying $800 now and have a deal for half of that later.

I have researched flying as a courier and I cannot find anything about that actually working out for people. Does anyone have any information on being an airport to airport courier and it actually being a success?

Thanks in advance!

From: http://dealsdiy.blogspot.com/2009/08/howto-get-cheap-hotel-through-online.html (http://dealsdiy.blogspot.com/2009/08/howto-get-cheap-hotel-through-online.html)

How can I get a hotel bargain with online bidding?

There are several tricks involved to get a real bargain.

1. Surf around: the most often used discount webs are: Priceline, Hotwire, Expedia, Orbitz, Hotels.com, Travelocity, etc. In case you don’t know the site link, just google “discounted hotel” or “cheap flight”, many will pop up.

I highly recommend: Travelzoo.com - it does not sell any discount flight or hotel, but it collects a bunch of good discount webs, so it’s very easy to use.

2. Here are my tips with hotel bidding:
* Priceline usually gives the lowest rate.
* Many websites have coupons, such as Orbitz
* If you find a hotel belonging to Holiday Inn, you can get the booking fee waived by going to the hotel website directly.

3. Wondering what rate other people get?

This website tells you! http://biddingfortravel.yuku.com/directory

Fantastic! You now know how much other people paid for their hotel. Comparing to last year data from close by locations at the same time of the year, you will get an idea of what the winning bid will be like. Also, use http://www.amazing-bargains.com/priceline.html to enter Priceline. It is said that Priceline will provide a lower rate if you were directed through Amazing-Bargains.

4. The classified:

Many have the experience that when bidding on Priceline, the maximum number of bids could not exceed 3, you will either have to change the location or increase the price you bid. So you will never know what the lowest price really is.

Frustrating, huh? Well, the secret is to use an expired credit card and a fake name. The credit card will not be charged since it has expired. And you can continue to bid until you find the price you need before bidding with your true information.

Hi!
Has anyone stayed at any of the Beaches all inclusive family resorts? We are hoping to go at the end of January, either to Jamaica or Turks & Caicos. Is it too early to book a deal? (I have tried about 10 different search engines and can't find a deal.) There will be 3adults and a 2 year old. Will rep for helpful advice.

i haven't but i'm going to; it seems like an extremely nice place, i would say turks and caicos would be the best; it is usually better to book early (i think the minimum is 30 days before your trip) because they are selling their rooms out fast; the current deal is on their site, it is something like stay there 7 days, get a day free, or 65% off, something like that

I agree that Turks/Caicos looks the nicest. However, the airfare to Turks/Caicos is about$2000 more expensive than Jamaica (for the 4 of us), which is our only problem in going there. I can't seem to find any cheaper airfare.
Thx. and repped!

P.S. Congrats on your win! :woot:

Does anyone here know of a way to search for cheap LAST-MINUTE flights from your departure location only? I am not looking for a destination... just the cheapest possible getaway from San Diego. I want to "run away" for fun and travel some place random with my husband for an adventure. I am turning 25 tomorrow and want to know if there are cheap ways to fill up spots on airplanes last-minute. I've heard that they don't have "standby" tickets nowadays. I know that some sites let you buy cheaper tickets as long as you commit to anytime during your selected days, but I believe those require a destination and may not be as cheap as I need. If anyone can please lend a hand, I am looking to leave Friday or Saturday departing from San Diego - returning on Monday the 7th. I'd prefer to go somewhere on the east coast, as I've never really traveled farther than New Mexico. I'm looking to spend around $400... for the 2 of us. If no one knows of a cool search tool or website, I will probably settle for driving the new car somewhere... just don't really have the time to drive as far as I'd like. Thank you in advance for any help. :)

I'm looking to book a trip to Disney World in mid-December, but I'm just so overwhelmed with all the Disney-themed travel sites (including the 2 on the first page). Plus, I have about $200 in Southwest credits, so I'd like to use them as an airline so the credits don't expire... but then should I book the entire trip through them? Where do you guys go when you're booking a trip to Disney World?

hopefully can afford to attend a wedding on June 26, 2010 in Anchorage Alaska. I have yet to look at the links from the first post but i figured i could put up my plans and get some people tips and tricks before just reading the sites. I am wanting to probably fly out thursday june 24 (aren't thursdays usually much cheaper than fridays?) and return sunday (possibly monday depending on my work schedule at the time).

i was told the following about prices to alaska:
under $500--a great deal--something I'd take right away
under $600--pretty good, worth taking if you don't want to gamble
under $700--still decent; could do worse if you wait
over $700--not so great.
but i don't think this person is a SDer so he may be naive. can anyone here chip in on what prices are too good to let pass if i should see it?

being that this trip is not for another nine months, i'm hoping to be able to get a steal for a price. also need hotel room.

i'll be checking into those links on first page as well as people's input here. as always, thanks for any input you can provide.
