As an addendum to my recent posts on cheap holiday vacations and cheap holiday travel tips, I just discovered a very cool map on the travel site FareCompare.com.
Plug in your starting location, your budget, the month you want to travel, and the map shows you exactly where you can afford to go across the globe.
You can narrow your search by choosing activities (ski, beach, golf), specific airlines, or price per mile. It’s easy – and fun – to think about all the trips you can take across the world. Chile! New Zealand! Turkey!
The map pulls fares published in the past four hours, so prices are accurate. Prices include taxes and fees, but not checked baggage costs, which vary greatly by airline. Flight prices may not be available on all days of the week. The map is for departure points in the U.S. only.
Thanks, Dan!

Looking for a cheap holiday vacation? There are a handful.
If you travel by car
More than 80% of holiday travel is done by car, Elliott says. “We’re a driving nation.” Check your tires’ air pressure, remove excess weight, maintain your car, drive steadily, and stick to the speed limit to get the highest miles per gallon.
Buy the cheapest gas with the Cheap Gas! app, which Coupon Cravings recommends. The app compares station prices by proximity to you. (more…)

I’ve never spent Christmas away from home so I’m fascinated with trading in a fragrant douglas fir for a margarita on the beach or map of Paris. If you are considering traveling instead of visiting family (or perhaps traveling with family), there are many affordable places to visit. Getting a cheap flight is possible, too.
Hotel prices in major American cities are 75% lower than rates in the summer in some cases. Hotels in (more…)
