Central Florida-Travel Bargain Alerts to Orlando

If Orlando were a rock group, it would be called “Mickey and the Wananabes.” In Central Florida, Walt Disney World is the lead vocalist, Universal Orlando and Sea World play the guitar and keyboards, and dozens of smaller attractions are behind the drums. This area truly is fantasyland, but the crowds, cost, confusion can’t turn your trip into a frightful experience. Well, if you are planning to visit Orlando, Florida this summer-remember to check bargain alerts-great last minute deals are also available directly from the airlines themselves through a free email service called E-savers. Each week, the airline sends you a list of discounted flights, usually leaving the upcoming Friday or Saturday and returning the following Monday or Tuesday. You can sign up for all the major airlines at one time by logging on to Smart Living-www.smarterliving.com, or you can go to each individual airline’s website. Airlines sites also offer schedules, flight booking, and information on late-breaking bargains.

If you can’t stand to fly or can’t afford the extra expense? You can get behind the wheel and drive to sunny Florida!
