Last Minute Holiday Savings Is So Last Year

  In recent years booking a last minute holiday has made a lot of sense - with ever more destinations available, a flexible tourist has almost been certain of being able to grab a last minute holiday at a bargain price.

But things are changing, and a new report suggests that for those who book next year's holiday well in advance they could be the ones who will be paying less, and with holiday companies cutting back on the number of holidays they sell due to recessionary times, last minute holiday bookings could be more expensive.

The report, by a leading consumer organisation, studied holiday prices for July and August this year, and compared the prices to the same holidays when they first went on sale last summer.

Those holidays were on average a thousand pounds (around US 1700 dollars) higher in cost for those who had waited to book last minute, compared to those who had booked a year in advance, changing the trend of the holidays market in Europe from the previous five years.

By Dave Southern

  It helps to follow some guidelines when traveling to ensure a safe trip. Check your car before a long trip, plan your route and be cautious when entering another state.

Scheduling a travel? Here are some reminders to have a fun and safe trip:

Check your car, or have it checked by a technician. Avoid unnecessary delays or accidents during your trip.
Plan your route in advance. Bring a road map if necessary.
Make advanced reservations in accommodations. This lessens the burden of looking for a place to stay upon your arrival. It saves you time as well.
Have a safe trip by fastening your seatbelts. Double check the childrens seatbelts.
When you reach your destination, lock your cars and keep valuable things out of sight before leaving.
Always be responsible and follow local rules and regulations.
Always keep your passport and other pertinent travel documents in a safe place.
Produce a digital and hard copy of your passport and keep it. It is smart to also store vital information of your passport in your email for easy retrieval
