That Makes Cents: Travel savings

Posted: 05/28/09

Be flexible with your travel dates. Book your trip on weekdays instead of weekends.

Phil Patterson, P&H Travel
"If you can go on Tuesday, you might save $1000."

Visit during the off-season to take advantage of big bargains.

Phil Patterson, P&H Travel
"Anywhere from $500 to $1000 a person, easily. Caribbean is gonna be May 1st through December 15th. Europe is off season from November 30th to March 31st."

And check out new hot-spots that aren't popular vacation destinations just yet.

Phil Patterson, P&H Travel
"Panama, El Salvador, Costa Rica, it's kind of up and coming, but you want to try to catch them as soon as you can because as they become more and more popular, their rates start to increase. In the Caribbean for sure, the biggest thing is the Domican Republic."

Now that makes cents.
