Cheapest Over-All Vacation

Without a doubt, cruises are your best bet for the cheapest overall vacation these days. CheapCaribbean.com is offering a 7 night Bahamas cruise out of Florida for as little as $279. Occupancy rates are down a third, so look for some great deals especially in the Caribbean and Mexico.

Cheapest Airfare

Generally speaking, youll find the best airfares on the websites of the carriers themselves. Profit margins are very low (or non-existent) for the air carriers now and they simply cannot afford to give a cut to a third party dealer.

Check out AirfareWatchdog.com to find some of the best deals out of your particular airport. Another option is Kayak.com, which searches multiple sites like Priceline, Orbitz, etc., to find the best deals, so you dont have to search on a hundred different sites.

Cheapest Hotels

Your cheapest hotel search option is likely to be HotelsCombined.com. Like Kayak.com, HotelsCombined.com combs multiple sites in search of the best deal. However, in my experience, HotelsCombined.com returns more options and better prices. Check Kayak.com anyway and compare.

Cheapest Package Deals

Again, CheapCaribbean.com is offering some of the cheapest package deals that Ive seen, such as an all inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic for as low as $58 per person per night. I dont know about you, but thats cheaper than my mortgage. No word on if there is a move-in discount.

Some of the best travel deals that Ive seen in years are out there right now. Tourism is down, and there is no money to be made in empty ships and vacant rooms. Youre likely to be able to negotiate an even better deal directly with the resort or hotel, if you can get past the web page and talk to a real person on the other side. It never hurts to ask, and you may be surprised on the hidden deals that you find!
