Goaldeje Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 So I am trying to talk her into Florence, but my wife wants to visit her sister in Vegas sometime in Feb. Anyone here a travel agent, or know how to get the really crazy good deals to go to Vegas i hear about? Any suggestions? I can afford to do it right, but would love to save money when possible.

Kosher Ham Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Travel agents are nearly extinct as a career. You can find great deals online. Through the airlines or one of the travel websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree. If you're really desperate for a travel agent's opinion and advice you can find some at the local AAA office. Last time I used one of them though, the deals they found were worse than the ones I could find for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosher Ham Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Just thought of that J. AAA is his best bet really. But their discounts are not more than I can find online. I never use AAA for hotel discounts...because I can always find a better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parlett316 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 My old roommate went to a tech college to be a travel agent. He's currently selling dog food at a pet shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsfan1311 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Like the other posters stated, there's no need for a travel agent, especially for Vegas, as there are tons of hotels and available rooms and flights. Southwest Airlines usually have good deals prices on travel packages, which include air+hotel+car. You should check 'em out. Travel sights like Orbitz, Priceline, etc have good deals on packages too. I have better luck with Orbitz. If you book air and hotel through Orbitz, look at the flights carefully, and try to get direct/non-stop flights, if possible and make sure that the times are convenient. Good luck!

The scary thing with today's technologies and how the world changes with it is how quickly we become obsolete. Where's my vinyl and 8 tracks!
