Early bird deals for summer vacation

It is still early enough to get in on all the great vacation deals and timing for the deals is everything. 

Travelzoo’s Senior Editor Gabe Saglie joined The Rhode Show with all the great “Early Bird Deals” and summer travel bargains.

Low season means you get the best value for your dollar and weekend vs. weekday travel is also a situation you need to be on the lookout for. 

The airfare if also a big effect on travel and hotel bargains even during the peak season. 

The other thing that many don't think about to often is the staycation is making a big comeback because of the extra costs that are involved in travel that many airlines are adding on to the fee. 

Make sure when you are booking your trip you are weighing value vs. the price point of the trip and always look for extras and the loyalty plays do pay of for many travelers.
