Ah summer. The traditional time for families to jump in the car and cruise across the United States. This year fuel prices are on the rise and are impacting vacation planning, as well as plans for business travel. Recent surveys show that travelers are amending or canceling their travel plans for this summer due to the high cost of fuel. The good news is that decreases in planned travel mean that more incentives and discounts are available for those willing to take the plunge.
Here are some ways to lower your vacation costs this summer:
• Search the internet for discounts and incentives from hotels, cruises, and resorts
• Consider sharing travel costs with another family
• Stay closer to home and visit local parks and other local attractions
• If you’re willing to wait, watch for last minute deals
• Plan your visit during off-peak times
• Sign up for rewards/rebates programs
Of course if you are looking to reduce business travel costs while finding more time to spend with your family, conference with TelSpan instead of taking a business trip!
