Holiday travel made easy without breaking the bank!
GotoBus, the leading online marketplace for bus tickets and tours, is pleased to release their budget-friendly holiday travel guide. While travel is to be enjoyed throughout the year, the holidays are a special time to relax with family and friends. However, the holidays also bring added stress due to sold out schedules, crowded airports and long ticket lines. In light of the recent economic downturn, GotoBus has created this guide to help relieve holiday travel woes for the busy, value-conscious consumer who loves to get a great deal.
Holiday Travel Tips: Read our travel tips to fully enjoy the holiday season.
Avoid the airport for short trips. Besides paying premium prices for the ticket, booking a holiday flight ensures that you will be subjected to long lines and heightened security measures, not to mention the excess baggage fees and fuel surcharges added to the cost of your ticket.
Don抰 drive if you don抰 have to. The last thing you want to deal with is a flat tire during a snowstorm on the way to grandma抯 house. You抳e been good all year� reward yourself by avoiding tolls, parking tickets and holiday road rage.
Consider taking the bus for your holiday travel plans. Why cause unnecessary stress when you can let someone else drive and pocket the extra money saved? GotoBus currently offers inter-city shuttle bus service departing from over 60 locations with prices as low as $10. Traveling on the cheap leaves more cash left over for Eggnog! Don抰 forget to book early to guarantee your seat.
