It sounds tempting. You’ve been invited to a seminar that promises a free vacation for listening to a presentation on discount travel services. The enticement is that you can become a "travel agent" with "credentials" that will permit you to travel at free or reduced fares.

Can the right ID card convince airlines, hotels and other travel services to give you a discount?

The Mountain States Better Business Bureau and the American Society of Travel Agents warn consumers not to be misled by travel card "mills" and other questionable discount travel service operations. The travel industry has become more vigilant in clamping down on those using card mill credentials.  Furthermore, promises of "industry insider" travel discounts do not always materialize. Some of the advertised prices are available to all travelers, and some hotels and airlines will not honor the card when presented for a discount or upgrade.

The Happiest Place on Earth!

The Magic KingdomWho doesn’t like Disneyland?! My husband and I recently took a trip to beautiful Anaheim, CA for a short getaway. We had some free flights with Southwest so we made a spur of the moment decision to take off. We booked a hotel and Disneyland Park package through www.disneyland.com.

Got Mini-Bar?

Mini bar prices are a rip off!
Memo to hoteliers on their mini-bars: survey shows to sell more, prices should be lower.

The hotel mini-bar refuses to die and perhaps not surprisingly, a new survey reveals that price and not selection is the most important factor when it comes to its use.

TripAdvisor found 94% of all travelers would use the mini-bar more often if the prices were more reasonable. One-third of travelers said they never hit the mini-bar. Other findings:
  • One-quarter of survey respondents have had a dispute with a hotel over a mini-bar charge. Men are more likely to get into a dispute over a mini-bar bill (32%) than women (22%).
  • Thirty-four percent of travelers feel they have been inaccurately charged for something in the mini-bar or fridge.
  • With the advent of motion and weight sensors, 16% of travelers have been billed for simply adding items to a hotel room mini-bar/fridge or for moving contents around.
  • Seven percent have been charged for merely storing their own items in a mini-bar/fridge.

Get The Price YOU Want

ImageSEATTLE – May 22, 2007 – Yapta, Inc. ( www.yapta.com ) today announced the public-beta launch of the industry's only airfare tagging service that tracks airfare on specific flights and alerts consumers via email when fares drop or fall below a desired spending limit.  By enabling consumers to "tag" specific flights from online itineraries offered at leading domestic airline websites or online travel agents, and have pricing continually monitored thereafter, Yapta assures that users get alerted to the lowest possible price for airline tickets.   Bringing to light pro-consumer "guaranteed airfare rules" offered by many airlines, the service helps air travelers obtain travel vouchers – and in some cases, cash refunds – when the price decreases on tickets that have already been purchased.
