Researching travel is a lot of fun but when it comes time to book your travel it can be overwhelming. There is no reason a person anywhere should stress about booking travel. Here at She’s Trippy I am giving you all the tools you need to book your own travel, easily.
Book Your Travel
Travel is on the rise and there are so many places to go and see and things to do. What’s stopping you from taking that vacation of your dreams?
Finances come into play for many when it’s time to book travel. However, there are ways to travel on the cheap. And, there are ways to travel in luxury. Both options are great and there is a season and reason for both types of travel.
Decide Your Style of Travel
Figure out where you want to go, for how long, what you want to do and how you plan to get to and from the destination. Research hotels and what’s around the hotels. Do you want to have to walk or drive to attractions. Are you wanting to have things close by or do you want to just relax and enjoy your resort or lodging. Lots of things to think of.
Staying at hotels or resorts that offer all the amenities is great! All inclusive vacations are relaxing because you don’t have to worry about anything. The USA only has a couple places that offer all inclusive options. Cruising is generally all inclusive except for beverage packages and off shore excursions.
However, all inclusive vacations aren’t for everyone and that’s totally ok. If you are the kind of person who wants to use loyalty point for bookings or have certain hotel chains you like, that’s great! Maybe you like to explore and want to be away from a resort type vacation. That’s what makes travel great, there is literally something for everyone.
Make a Plan
Once you decide where you want to go and what type of travel you want to do the rest is easy. Booking your travel might seem scary but it’s really not. There are so many tools a person can use to help you plan the perfect vacation.
Choose your dates and then plug them into any of the travel sites below. If you are a bit flexible on dates that is always more helpful. For travel where you will be flying, check flights first. Checking to see flights helps because if flights are to expensive then you can readjust your travel plans. Flight prices can be high especially if booking last minute. But, if you are one who likes last minute getaways there are some great travel deal sites I’ll share below.
Use any of the below booking engines to plan and book your vacation.
Book Your Travel
While there are endless ways a person can book their travel online these days, I’m sharing my favorites with you.
It doesn’t hurt to research a few of these to see where prices might be the best.

Skyscanner – not really a flight club but a great way to check for cheap flights.
