Cheap and Inexpensive Hawaiian Vacation

Sorry for not posting for a while. The wife and I have been busy spending our vacation money on a new house, and then moving into it. So if we were going to be going on vacation this year (not very likely), we would definitely be using these tips for a cheap Hawaiian vacation, or anywhere else for that matter.

KomoTV.com had a post a few days ago about four secrets to finding the best price for a Hawaiian Vacation.

Secret 1: Avoid going in June, July or August. These months are going to be different depending on where you are going. For example, the summer months are high season for Hawaii, yet low season for Jamaica. So check out the on and off season rates do decide when the best time is to go.

Secret 2: Compare flight rates as one person and as group rate. Sometimes the price is different per person depending on whether they are bought singly or as a group.

Secret 3: Bundle together your excursions and extra activities. If you pay for them individually, chances are that you will spend a whole lot more than if you pay for them all at once. Of course, to me, just being on the beach is enough, but hey, sometimes you’ve got to do something else.

Secret 4: The Hilton Hawaiian Village in Wakiki puts on a show on Fridays that you do not have to stay at the hotel to attend. This is true in many places other than Hawaii. Just because you aren’t staying at a particular hotel, doesn’t always mean you can’t take part in some activities or restaurants.

Since gas has now risen to $3.79 this morning, saving money is becoming very important. And the US Dollar is falling so our money is not going as far. This all means that you have to be careful about everything you spend of vacation, take the time to find the best price and you will hopefully be left with a little bit more afterwards.
