Traveling Help

We want to take a trip to Disneyland over UEA (October). Does anyone know the best way to plan a trip? Chad wants to fly. I started looking at rates and they don't look great. When is the best time to book a flight and should we use a travel agent? Is there a best place on the internet to use? Looking for all words of wisdom!

I've never been to Disneyland, but the Brough family has been many times and I think they have the routine down to a science now! You should call Chaundelle and pick her brain.

I've used expedia.com before, and found pretty good deals there - but I'm no expert. You probably should call Chaundelle. Good luck!

jilly... NO AGENTS! pay me and i will get you a great deal. or just give me a rockin' hot price on your house and i will help you out...

if you go to bookingbuddy.com you can use all the search engines at once to find the best fares. sometimes it gets cheaper if you wait a few months... in fact for sure it will. it will kill you to wait, i know... but i live my life like that and it seems to work out a-okay. Tuesdays and saturdays are usually the cheapest days to fly... sometimes thursdays or wednesdays. if you can miss school on tuesday though, it's the cheapest fer sure...

hotels?-- go to hotels.com, they "guarantee" the cheapest rates... but they really are a good deal usually. and besides it's a good search engine for hotels, and if you find something you like in the right price range, then just look up that hotels home page and see if you can get it even cheaper directly from the sight--- that's worked out a-okay for me.

i get weekly best deals from about 5 different sights which include hotel, car rental, vacation package and flight deals so if you tell me what you want i can keep my eyes peeled for it.

and don't forget to impress matt on monday at your little cottage... we're looking to buy.

love you, sister.
