With gas prices up 20 percent, airfares up 10 percent or more from last year and few signs of relief in sight, Travelocity is helping consumers fend off higher travel costs into the fall and winter months. To do this, the "home of The Roaming Gnome" today kicked off its largest discount to date on Flight + Hotel packages to popular destinations worldwide. While experts industry-wide have consistently directed consumers to look for packaged travel offering deep discounts, Travelocity's "Great Getaway" discount takes it a step further with $200 off any packages for two to Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean or Hawaii for six nights or longer. And with international fares on the rise, promotions to destinations outside the U.S. are more valuable than ever. Recent Travelocity data also reveals May airfares (including domestic and international travel) are up 10 percent versus last year and June were up 13 percent, reiterating that the waiting game likely won't pay off. "Consumers are still trying to figure out how to stay on budget or whether they should just wait it out," said Tracey Weber, chief operating officer of Travelocity. "Travelers still don't realize that packages are not only convenient, but offer a significantly better value. Factor all of this and now is an opportune time to book that dream vacation, even into the winter holidays." With summer underway and the fall/holiday travel season right around the corner, savvy travelers who book in advance can take advantage of package prices that include: -0- *T Sample Great Getaway Package Deals(a) Hotel & Airline After Great tickets for two Price if Purchased Getaways $200 Origin and adults, 6 Separately vs. Packaged Additional Destination nights, 7 days Price Off ------------ ----------------- -------------------------- ----------- New York to Saint Gregory Flights: $1,144 Originally London, Hotel (four Hotel: $1,163 $1,999 England stars) deluxe If purchased After $200 double room separately: $2,307 coupon: Virgin Atlantic, Booked Together $1799 departing Sept.
