Hacks On How To Save This Summer
As the experts in
travel savings, Priceline makes saving on travel easier than ever
by offering up to 60% off on hotels, flights, rental cars, and
cruises. To help customers save even more money, follow these tips
when planning and booking your next vacation:
- Take Advantage of City Deals. As COVID-19
restrictions are lifted, cities are experiencing a resurgence and
are great destinations for summer travel. Hotel prices in cities
continue to remain lower than 2019 levels. New York and Chicago are particularly affordable
destinations this summer with average daily hotel rates of
$181 and $187 and average round-trip flight tickets for
$282 and $274.2
- Rent a Car From Off-Airport Locations. In
Priceline's current list of the top 30 most popular destinations,
more than 70 percent of searches show that more wallet-friendly
rates are available at off-airport locations than at airport-based
locations for the same car type. On average, travelers who pick up
their car at an off-airport location save more than 15
percent.
- Head to Affordable Destinations For A Last Minute Fourth
Of July Getaway. With the newfound lifestyle of
working remotely, Americans have the freedom to take advantage of
making last minute vacation plans. Grand
Junction, CO is one of the most affordable destinations for
those looking to plan an impromptu trip for the long holiday
weekend with average daily hotel rates of $80 to explore Colorado's wine country.
- Bundle travel for added savings. Regardless of
what type of product you plan to book for upcoming summer travel
plans, travelers should consider booking "bundles" by packaging
hotels, flights, and car rentals to access deeper discounts and
maximize savings. Those who bundle save an average of $240 when booking a hotel and flight
together.
