Travel Deal of the Day (November 28, 2007)

If you have the freedom to travel over the next few weeks, it may be an excellent time to find a deal to a winter vacation destination.

The Deal:
The three to four weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas are a great time to travel to winter vacation destinations. The first 10-15 days of December are an especially good time to travel as kids are still in school. So, if you are flexible, hotels often offer extraordinary deals. If you have not yet booked a vacation for the next few weeks but your may be interested in taking a last-minute getaway, keep abreast of the last-minute hotel and airfare deals published on websites such as http://www.smartertravel.com/. You can find especially good deals in places that are extraordinarily expensive just a few weeks later during Christmas week – such as Florida and Hawaii.
