Package Changes, and Things to Look at:
FLIGHTS: After you find a package and dates you like (and a price that works), we recommend double and triple checking the flight schedule. They do a pretty good job of recommending decent schedules, but not always. Most of us will pay an extra $40 to avoid a 10 hour layover in Chicago! Or, we might opt for an optional flight schedule because we know we won’t get through La Guardia in 45 minutes. Double check before proceeding to the final checkout.
LODGING / HOTELS: This is important! While Tripmasters does a decent job of building packages with good hotel options, they’re not always great. The good news - there are usually dozens of options to choose from. We always recommend you do a little research before making the decision. 1) decide which neighborhoods at your destination are preferable. 2) make sure your hotel will be in a good location for getting to sites and activities you’re interested in. 3) Make sure the hotel has great reviews.
EXTRAS: Sometimes, they have a pretty good list of tours, activities, etc. for cities. These are worth looking at - and can be pretty cheap when booked with the package.
ADDING DAYS! This is the big one. While we might post a 7 day trip, it’s almost always preferable to add to that. It won’t raise the price much, and can make your trip so much more enjoyable! We always like to allow at least a whole day for a leisurely recovery of the flights - so tacking at least day onto the end of the trip makes sense. Add as many days to your package as you can - it’s cheaper than you think!
About TripMasters
Why Tripmasters? These guys have been in business for almost 40 years, and we’ve personally used them on a few trips. They are A+ rated by BBB, and we’ve had dozens of friends use their services. We track their packages simply because of their reputation - and because their prices are often extremely good! They don’t pay us a penny - we’re just in the business of finding you affordable travel adventures. In times when there aren’t any awesome sales on flights, these guys come through with some amazing deals. We pass them along when we see them. See links / their website for more information about their company - and their packages.
Confirmations Note:
Even though we’ve had good experiences with Tripmasters, they are not a full-service travel agency. We always recommend that you double confirm all the bookings on your own after the package is booked. We like to be extra careful by confirming all legs of travel prior to trip. We confirm all flights (and re-confirm the week of travel). We confirm all lodging bookings ahead of time. And, we confirm (or at least obtain proper confirmation) of all train / car transfers included in trip. We travel with paper and digital copies of all booking legs - and keep the agent on our speed dial in case of a problem.
