Question by John D: **Need some Help** TRAVEL ADVICE FOR FLORIDA! PLEASE HELP***ANY ADVICE WOULD BE APPRECIATED…?
OK, so here is the deal.

I have to travel for work in mid January to FL, but am able to work in 2 weekends, with only taking a day of vacation!

So, I can basically take off after work on Friday, have the weekend, and take that Monday off for vacation. I need to be in Orlando for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurdays. I am free from my work obligations by Friday afternoon.

Question is, what to do???

I would like to see Miami, and fly out of Miami on the last Sunday, to come home.

Thinking of flying in somewhere on Friday, and spending the weekend through Monday, and driving to Orlando by Tueday afternoon-ish. Working through Friday afternoon, then heading to Miami for the weekend.

Any tips or advice? Where to stay in Miami, or where to visit on my 1st weekend?

PLEASE HELP!! I want this to be a great little get a way from the Winter!

Thanks!!!!!!!

Question by jdbinga: We are trying to find the best deal to Cebu for the month of December to January?
i have searched and searched on the internet. I know about all the standard search engines for travel. Four Adults traveling. If I could fly into another SE Asian city then onto Philippines this would be ok. Why is it so much higher to fly directly into cebu than say Ho chi Minh then onto Cebu? Any help would be appreciated. thanks

Answer by Chris
Although Cebu is an International Airport, the volume of international flights there is quite smaller compared to the traffic in manila. It would be best to take a flight to manila then another connecting flight to cebu

Philippine Airlines has over 5-6 flights to cebu everyday

Look for cruises. Ask about including air fare both ways. It will be cheaper and you will all enjoy the all-inclusive cruise.Look for a cruise out of Miami, or Port Canaveral. Go to vacationstogo.com and cruisedeals.com and search for the best fares for two inside cabins.

Question by Scott M: My 30th B-Day is December 22nd. I know it’s early but im starting to look into how to celebrate it. Any Ideas?
A few ideas I have had are..

Going to Vegas – December weather there is around the 40 – 50s maybe even less .. Being so close to Christmas I would think that most people would choose more tropical climates instead and there for be pretty deserted.

Going on a Cruise – From what I have read most ships that offer good deals around that time are packed with kids and family’s. Not exactly what I have in mind, Oh and the chance of bad weather.

I thought about Hawaii but that about a 3 grand trip, which is a bit over my price range..

Any ideas?

Question by GrayBush: When is the best time to book holiday travel?
I’m asking when I am most likely to find the cheapest flights for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Should I book long before, somewhere in the middle, or wait for a last minute deal?

Best answer:

Answer by ThePerfectStranger
Interesing. I just answered a similar question for someone else.

Holiday or non-holiday is no difference. The best time to buy an airline ticket is when that ticket is at its lowest price. Well this may sound stupid, but hear me out. Airline tickets can fluctuate in price regularly – daily and/or hourly. It is about demand and supply. Popular flight destination and times are normally going to be more expensive; however, each airline offers sales or specials from time to time. The way to take advantage of these offers is to watch the prices regularly and when a good offer is available – buy it. If you wait, the price could change that day or the next day. There is no real secret. Some say wait till the last minute. Well if the flight is a popular flight, chances are you won’t get a ticket at any price. Don’t believe the last minute special, it seldom pays off. The best thing to do is plan in advance. I mean as soon as you know when and where you want to go, start looking. Pick a web site. Most web sites are the same. There is no particular web site that is better than another as far as pricing. They sell for the same airlines. The web site does not set pricing. Be flexible in your dates and departure times. It may be cheaper to fly during the week and at odd hours. Remember supply and demand, the more popular, the more the cost. I like to use Travelocity because it has a flexible flight locater. You just put the month or months you want to travel and it shows you by airline the flight starting with the cheapest. You pick the best price and then the travel dates that the fare is offered. If the price isn’t good enough, try again later. It is important that you start early. Airlines usually post prices 330 days in advance. I recommend that you start at least 4 months before your planned flight and sooner if possible. I have booked really cheap sale fares as much as 8-10 month in advance. I will give you and example. I was planning a trip this Christmas as my wife and I usually do. I started looking in January. In March, I saw a sale to my destination for $ 118 a ticket ($ 157 with taxes and surcharges). This was a Christmas flight so it can work for Holiday seasons. Of course, I bought it. The next day, that very same ticket was $ 480.

The secret is plan ahead and start looking. Book when you find a deal.

Question by Maggie S: Where to stay in New York City at Christmas time?
I really want to go to new york to see the christmas decorations. I was going to go last year, but never did. My mom says we should go later, but I said I want to see it at christmas time. She wants a really nice, but cheap hotel. Are there any good ones in like manhatten or other places down by the best shopping? I think we are traveling by train so if you could find a good hotel and train deal that would be great. How long do the stores keep their christmas decorations up? I know that they are up in january. Does anyone know of any good guide books that would help? I would really like all the help I could get. Please give me information along with websites. Thanks!

Answer by IAskUAnswer
Nice hotel and cheap are words that do not belong together for the Manhattan area. I found the Holiday Inn on 57th to be a fairly decent price (for New York!) and the rooms were clean.

It can be a bit of a walk to the main area of 42nd street, but you get to see more of the city.

Question by kali: Is it true that it’s not good to travel to HK during December 24-27?
Is it true that during those days, Disney Land, Madame Tussauds, Ocean Park and other tourist destinations are so jam packed that you won’t enjoy your visit?

Best answer:

Answer by longliveabcdefg
Most probably, Hong Kong is a city with 7 million residents excluding tourists. Christmas is time when most school age children go out and have fun with the family so it should be congested in most places.
