Best Travel Deals Right Now: Savings on Flights, Hotels, Cruises

Table of Contents

Boy, sometimes it feels like you blink and all of a sudden summer is halfway over. Memorial Day has come and gone, and all our doggo friends are finally recovered from the stress of all those Fourth of July festivities, which means the dog days are now right around the corner. It’s the hottest time of the year and before too long we’ll all be arguing over how early is too early to start drinking pumpkin spice-flavored coffee drinks.

But we’re getting ahead of ourselves a bit here. Just because a few big summer holidays have come and gone doesn’t mean that summer is anything close to over. There’s still plenty of time to get out there—whether by land, air, or sea—and see a different part of our nation or world. And even if you’re strapped for vacation time or simply want to avoid some incredibly crowded airports at the moment, it’s a great time of year to start planning ahead for fall or even winter vacations.

Of course, none of this is getting cheaper. Airlines are busier than ever and hotel prices are soaring. Thankfully, there are still plenty of vacation deals to be had, and we have rounded up the best ones out there right now.

The deals below have a little something for everyone. We’ve got cheap flight, travel, and hotel deals, with both budget-friendly and aspirational options. We’ve got vacation packages, train deals, tour savings, and even camper van rental promos and the occasional luggage deal. There’s also a mix of the best flight deals for both last-minute summer travel and for those planning ahead for off-peak getaways later this year.

Throughout the month, we’ll continue to update this post so you can stay on top of all the best flight, travel, and hotel deals so you can save some coin when you’re getting out there this month and beyond. Bookmark this page and we promise you’ll always have something good to come back for.
