November 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment
It is time to strategize your honeymoon. You want something truly memorable and spectacular, but you may not be flush with money. So, what can you do to get the most for what you spend? Indeed, how can you get a fabulous honeymoon at the lowest cost possible?
Tip One: Know your limits. Know how much money and time you have to invest in your honeymoon. Like everything else in life, you will have to set your priorities, make your choices, and narrow your options. To do so, you need a solid budget and plan. Prevent problems later arrange well in advance.
Number Two Tip : Ask for and pursue special perks for being on your honeymoon. You may be surprised to find many people going the second mile to insure your experience with them. Share the excitement and you may well receive added benefits or even upgrades to you accommodations, meals, travel, and more.
Idea Three: Work with professionals. You may save time and money by consulting and enlisting the aid of a professional travel agent. They know the ins and outs of their industry and can often get you what you want at much lower costs or arrange special upgrades without add on expenses. Of course it is important to choose the right professional. If you want a cruise, using an travel agent that specialized in air travel; might not be best.
Number Four Tip : Rent an apartment or time share. Save money over hotels, but experience the benefits of a resort while enjoying all the conveniences of home. Save big on travel, meals, and distractions.
Fifth Idea : Many tours, hotels, spas, and cruises offer package deals that include travel, accommodations, food, drink, and entertainment. These programs are designed for groups and for saving money. You have nothing to worry about, because you have someone else taking charge of all the details. Think of attending a world class theater as part of your package. All you have to do is enjoy.
Tip Six: Timing is everything. When it comes to travel, resorts, and vacation destinations; timing is a big consideration. You can often save fifty to seventy-five percent just by scheduling your trip a few days or weeks outside peak demand seasons. There are many factors affecting the seasonality of a destination, and these may affect your decision as well. For example, a sky lodge in Colorado may be in high demand during January, but have very little demand in July. A tropical paradise may have high demand from snowbirds during the Winter, but their weather is pretty constant year around.
Plan together. Avoid conflict by being insensitive to your partner. I remember a groom how planned out this extravagant celebration trip to a hunting lodge in Montana. The only problem was that he did not consider the feelings and desires of his bride. As you might expect, the trip was not all he had dreamed either.
Arrange well in advance and avoid those last minute fees and rate hikes. These six ideas can make a big difference, but you must arrange well in advance. Airlines, cruise lines, hotels, and essentially every service in the travel industry gives discounts for early scheduling and raises rates the closer you get to launch time. So strategize well in advance.
Check all the little details too. Often the success or failure of a honeymoon is in the details. For example, if you are flying to Orlando and staying in a hotel; does the hotel have a shuttle to transport you? Are there restaurants within walking distance of your hotel? Exactly what is covered and what is not. What are the hidden expenses?
