- Yes, it is true that some of the best travel deals are found by planning ahead -- using airline miles, redeeming points at hotels, booking cruises six months in advance -- but there are many more available for last minute travelers. Click over to lastminute.com and you'll see what we mean.
- Book directly with discount airlines via their website or toll-free hotline for the best last minute airfare deals.
- Always call the hotel property directly after you've scouted prices online -- the manager may be willing to give you discounts, upgrades, and perks that aren't available from a chain's web site or 800#.
