Some sites, like
If you call the hotel or airline direct to make your reservation, or book your flight, you are going to pay full price. Unless, of course, of you are an AARP or AAA member. Then you may see some savings. But with a travel discount site, you get competitive rates with huge savings over direct bookings.
There are other travel discount sites out there too, but this is the one I find to be the most consistant. Like I said, their rates are competitive with other discount sites and yet, much cheaper than direct bookings. Not only that, if you find a cheaper rate on another site, with the exact same travel dates and hotel, you can contact them within 24 hours of your reservation and they will confirm the rate with the other site. Upon confirmation, they will either match the competitors rate or cancel your reservation without a cancellation fee, whichever you chose.
They even have special offers from time to time like Gas Rebates!! I know that personally, with the gas prices today, we are hesitant to take any vacations. But if you can take advantage of an offer like that, what are you losing?
Dad was certainly happy with his "Special Internet Rate" he got for our recent vacation. I guess seeing is believing!
