Will lower travel costs change your holiday travel plans?
Posted on November 25th, 2008 – 3:20 PMBy Elizabeth Larsen
As the economy worsens, the travel industry is bracing itself for a disappointing holiday season. To get people back in the air and on the beaches and ski slopes, many companies are offering significant sales: Twin Citians who want to visit Los Angeles between December 13 and December 17 can get there for $259. Ski.com is offering a 50% reduction at a Jackson Hole hotel for the entire season.
The question, of course, is if people will take advantage of these sales. What about you? Are the deals making you feel like it’s time to start packing your bags? Have you found any great sales that you’d like to share?

No change to our plans… we never have been able to afford holiday travel.
