Travel Sites

I have done a lot of traveling over the last 30 years, visiting 47 of the 50 USA states, several countries in Europe, several countries in Asia, Australia, South America and extensive travel in India. During that time I compiled a list of the best travel sites on the Internet.

The main sites to use for USA travel are the general travel sites that are the first ones listed below. If you want to find cheap hotels, car rentals and airlines flights these sites are great.

To find a cheap airline flights my favorite sites to use are Expedia. OneTravel.com, Hotwire and Priceline. I usually check Expedia first, as they often have the cheapest prices, which then gives you a competitive price to beat.

The advantage of an auction site like Priceline with flights is you can bid on the flights price and you often can get the cheapest fare. But a major disadvantage to Priceline is when you bid on a flight you don't know the time the flight will depart, so that can be a major problem. Of course now Priceline also has facilities to see the prices on flight like Expedia, so it is a great site to use.

For reserving hotels I first check Expedia or Hotel.com and see what prices they are offering, which are often 40% off the normal hotel rates. Then I usually bid on Priceline for a hotel, usually bidding half the price offered on Web Site that offer discount fixed price hotel rates. I have many time in this way got $120 dolar hotel rooms for $30 or $40 dollars a night. It is especially great for reserving hotels in the major cities where prices are extremely high. You will be amazed what you can get for $40 in Los Angeles.

There is one major problem with reserving a hotel by usuing Priceline or Expedia and that is that you can't change the reservation, so you should be fairly certain you will not alter your plans. Also if you want two beds in a double room sometimes they will only give you one king size bed.

Another pontential problem with reserving a room on Priceline is that you cannot choose a particular hotel. You choose an area in the city (say downtown or near the airport) and then after you win your bid for a room you are then told which one it is and eexactly where it is located. If you want to recieve more control over your hotel reservations you most likely would want to use Expedia or one of the other travel or hotel sites.

General Travel Sites
Most of the general travel sites listed below search multiple airlines sites, hotels sites, and car rental sites simultaneously to find the best deals. A good strategy when dealing with discount sites is to check one of the sites that list the price of direct flights. If you then want to get a further discount you can try to bid on PriceLine or Hotwire, and then you know what price you have beat. The disadvantage of PriceLine and Hotwire is that you often have to make one or two connections.

If you book your flight through a discount travel site you may not get frequent-flyer miles, or you may have to make one or two stopovers, which you find out about after you make your booking. You also may have to take a circuitous routing which can double the mileage that you have to travel.

Expedia.com - Books flights, cars, cruises, travel packages and hotels. It has a fare calculator so one can find the lowest airfares. They can send you emails with information about certain destinations. They also sell travel accessories. They are one of the best travel sand often get prices much lower than what you would get directly from the airlines, rent-a-car places and hotels. You type in your flight schedule then you are offered an assortment of departures times on various airlines and you pick whatever airline, time and price you want.ites and are recommended. They have a Fare Compare which let you know about latest deals. They have a MileageMiner to manage frequent flier mileage and Seat Pinpointer to choose a seat in advance. Has facilities for booking hotels, sometime at large discounts. Service seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Can book special vacations such as adventure, beach and golf, and business travel. User friendly. Video tours, slide shows and articles. Wireless network gives flight status that can be accesses by a computer or cell phone. I regularly (as also many other people I know do) use Expedia. US only, for UK see below.
1st-Air Net (www.1stair.net) has good Business-class discounts. It is an easy, friendly site. It offers discount tickets to Europe, South America, Asia and India.
Hotwire.com (www.hotwire.com) - Arranges airline flights, hotels and car rentals. You type in your departure and arrival city, departure and return date, and the maximum number of stops, whether you will take a prop plane and whether you will take a late night flight. You are given a set of options to choose from with the price of each option in several minutes. You then have 30 minutes to make your choose of the options given. You then choose the one you want and then Hotwire lets you know your airlines, times and the route you will be taking. If you want to get a real discount on a trip you can expect to make at least one stop, if not two. You can get great travel deals on this site, up to more than a 50% discount. Travelers must me 18 or over. Cannot change tickets or get a refund. US only.
OneTravel.com (www.onetravel.com) offers discount flights and discounts on over 50,000 hotels around the world. Offers car rental discounts. The prices for the car rentals are definitely good. Let you choose between published fares, consolidator rates and its own White Label fares (which can be discounted up to 80%). The exact airlines, flight and departure time are not known until the ticket is purchased. You don't bid, but the White Label service shows the approximate departure times, the price, and the amount of connections, and you accept the option that you want. Their flight prices were not so impressive for flights between the US and India. The hotel prices seem to be fairly correct. When I typed in New Delhi I got 21 responses. It has Ask the Expert feature where you can ask special travel questions. Offers cruises and special tours. Has information on bed-and-breakfasts, spas and apartments. An excellent bargain site.
InfoHub (www.infohub.com) arranges specialty tours. They have a choice of 14 different tours for India including a spiritual tour, palace tour, North India and Nepal tour, and Walking with the Buddha tour. Has great facilities for business travelers. The Express Trip Planners can let a person know what the best airlines, hotel and car rental combination can give the most frequent flyer combination. Gives automatic updates on prices. An excellent business site. If there is a problem, Biztravel will often compensate its customers, even though it isn't their fault. If you fly American Airlines, US Airways, Air France, British Airways, Continental, or Japan Airlines you can get compensation if your flight arrives late (not for mechanical problem), but you have to file a claim within 24 hours.
Lowestfare.com (www.lowestfare.com) has low fares for flights, car rentals, and hotels. It also has weather information, a currency converter, and news information. It mainly deals with the United States and Europe.
Orbitz - One of the best places on the Internet to book airlines and hotels.
Priceline.com (http://www.priceline.com) has discount prices for flights, hotels and car rental. You place a bid for a flight and the day you want to travel and if an airline accepts it you get the flight, and your credit card is automatically charged. The only problem with this site is you can only pick the day, but not the time, so you have to accept whatever time they give you. I reserved a ticket from New York to Florida on Thursday and got a flight the next day for $200 roundtrip. I reserved a roundtrip flight from New York to Gainesville, Florida and back one day before the flight and got a ticket on Delta for $275 roundtrip, and was told that I received an $850 saving on the flight. Highly recommended.

Arthur Frommer's Travel Online (www.frommers.com) has travel information.
Fodors (www.fodors.com) has information on over 110 places around the world. It also has books on Bed & Breakfasts, adventure tours, North American parks and sports. Has discussions groups and links to online travel agents. Doesn't have good links. The information is not always up-to-day. Their books are not usually anywhere nearly as good as other travel book publishers. Their book on India has some information, but is no where near as good as other publisher.
Let's Go (www.letsgo.com) has information on over 50 places around the world. It is geared for budget travelers, and has no practical hotel information for high-end travelers. The best thing about this site is the excellent links that they have to travel sites including links to various countries, airlines, and tour agencies. It gives information from the various books published by Let's Go. Their India book is fairly good, but I sure wouldn't purchase it.
Lonely Planet (www.lonelyplanet.com) has information on over 100 places around the world. It is geared for travelers at all levels. It gives information from the various books published by Lonely Planet. Their books are excellent and for most places are the best books on the subject. Personally I usually purchase their book first on any place that I go to. Their information on tourist places may not always be the best, but their practical information on hotels and restaurants, and their maps are usually the best you can get. Their India book is excellent. The site has discussion groups on many places around the world. The discussion group on India can be quite lively and if you ask an intelligent question you can often get a worth-while answer. But for the most part the answers to questions are useless, and you can learn more on your first day in India than looking at their forum.
Moon (www.moon.com) has information on many places around the world. It is geared for travelers at all levels. It gives information from the various books published by Moon Publishing. Their books are good and for some places are the best books on the subject. They do not have a book on India, but they have a book on Nepal. I am definitely impressed that they got the web address www.moon.com, which I am sure many other people would love to have.
Rough Guide (www.roughguides.com) has information on over 4,000 places around the world. It is geared for budget travels, but is useful to travelers on all levels. It gives information from the various books published by Rough Guide. Rough Guidebooks are very detailed and very informative, and I can definitely recommend them. The information on the site can be quite limited and if you really want to get any detail you have to purchase one of their books. It is a good way to advertise their excellent books. They have an excellent India book.
