Tips for Planning an Orlando Vacation on a Budget
ORLANDO, Fla./PRNewswire/
Families anticipating car travel should start
early to invest time in
planning. Preparing ahead can save time and money with
better rates on airfare, rental cars and accommodations, says the
Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau. To squeeze
the most out of your vacation budget, try these money-saving tips:
* Get your vacation savings off the ground by booking on one of the many
low-cost airlines. Among those servicing Orlando International Airport are AirTran Airways,
America West, Condor, Delta Express,
Independence Air, JetBlue, MetroJet, Midwest Express, Spirit
Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Sun Country Airlines, Ted, and US Airways Express.
* Save cool cash on hot hotel deals. Visitors will find great savings on
Orlando hotel rooms at www.orlandoinfo.com. Check out the "Top Deals" section on
the left hand side of the home page for discounted rates.
* Start saving before you leave by requesting information and discount cards
for the destination of your choice. Orlando offers a free vacation planning
kit that includes the Orlando Magicard®, a free discount card that
allows vacationers to save up to $500 at 103 area establishments from
attractions, accommodations, restaurants and dinner theaters to ground
transportation and shopping malls. In addition, Orlando's "Mature
Travelers Guide" lists special offers available to seniors.
* Choose a hotel that fits your budget and when booking accommodations, make
sure you request any special discounts, such as automobile associations,
military, senior, etc. With more than 102,000 hotel rooms, Orlando boasts a
variety of accommodation options to satisfy any budget.
* Save time and money when you arrive at your destination by making your
first stop the Official Visitor Center. The Orlando/Orange County Convention
& Visitors Bureau, Inc.'s Official Visitor Center provides discount
tickets to attractions and cultural performances, assistance in locating
last-minute accommodations, maps, brochures and much more.
* Don't feel as if you have to eat every meal at an expensive restaurant.
Look for restaurants where "kids eat free" and ask the locals
about their favorite low-cost restaurants.
*Travelers can also find savings by booking on the Internet, calling their
travel agent and visiting bargain attractions. To plan an Orlando vacation,
visit the Orlando Web site at www.orlandoinfo.com
or call 1-800-551-0181 or 407-363-5872 or visit the Official Visitor
Center at 8723 International Drive on the southeast corner of International
Drive and Austrian Row. Ask for your complimentary "Official Visitors
Guide."
