Family Vacation Deals

Family vacations are not cheap – between the airline tickets (that are usually not discounted for children), the attraction tickets, and the high costs associated with traveling during school vacations (aka when everyone else is traveling), you’ll definitely need to budget.  However, there are some opportunities where you can save money and get some family vacation deals.

Some hotels offer special packages that include attraction tickets, parking, and upgraded rooms.  If you plan to use all of the components of the package, it’s likely to be a good deal – but remember to price everything out individually too.  If you aren’t going to use something, the whole package may be more expensive than just buying separately.

You can also get on the mailing list of group buying sites like Groupon.com that offer getaway flash deals, but remember to check the fine print, because you’ll often see blackout dates and other restrictions.  When booking travel online, check with sites like Ebates and Be Frugal which can offer you a percentage back on your purchase.  Another option, especially if you aren’t picky about your hotel, is to look at sites like Priceline or Hotwire.
