You can get great deals on trips if you plan ahead. Subscribe to travel websites to receive alerts for great price tags on your desired destination.
If you have exact dates in mind for your trip, booking online is even simpler. Just go to a major travel website, such as Expedia, Travelocity or Priceline. The front page of each of these sites allows you to enter your travel dates, destination and other information. It will then search for the best packages.
To book travel online, you must have a valid credit card. Most booking websites accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express.
After you have booked your vacation, the website will direct you to a confirmation page you can print. Most websites will then send you a confirmation e-mail.
To use tickets and reservations, print out the entire confirmation e-mail, including any attachments. This should be sufficient as a proof of purchase if your order is questioned.
