Money Saving Summer Travel Ideas



Summer travel is a popular choice of an activity for many people in the U.S. Summer travel plans are up by 17% from last year already. Traveling can be expensive, so make sure you follow some of these tips from The Pelorus Group to help cut down on vacation costs.

Book in advance. This cannot be reiterated enough. Many people think that waiting for those last second deals are the way to go and will be the cheapest, but that is not always the case. This is an extremely risky tactic as it is not uncommon for the prices to stay relatively high even at the last second. Knowing the dates you want to go on vacation 8 months to a year away, can drastically decrease the price of flights, hotels, and other travel expenses. Also, signing up for flight special emails will keep you in the loop for the hottest deals when they come up. Looking at multiple airports to leave from and traveling during the week can certainly help reduce costs as well.
