Cutting Costs
You can preview savings with a trial membership, and sign up for the platform when you’re ready to book an itinerary, says Fiona Downing, Chief Membership Officer Travel + Leisure GO.
Four more ways travelers can save money and have fun:
1. Travel during “shoulder season”, the less popular travel times such as early autumn at the beach and winter in Europe.
2. Find free things to do. Look for concerts in the park and museums that are free on certain days of the week.
3. Eat like a local. Visit local markets and food stands for a taste of the area’s cuisine.
4. Keep souvenirs to a minimum. Take lots of photos instead.
