~Need Help Getting There?~

If you are traveling anywhere for Thanksgiving or Christmas, then I suggest you get on that right now and that you use a Trip Adviser. I have never been to New Mexico, so I was trying to figure out how to best advise those who wanted to go, but I didn’t know where to start. I was just messing around on the internet and I found three websites that were willing to help me find a flight plus a hotel to stay in. Orbitz, Hot Wire, and Expedia were all really good sites to help find the right package. All I had to do was type in from where I would leave, where I would like to arrive, and the dates for the trip. I could even add more information if I wanted; if I wanted to see how much it would be for one or six people I could just type it in. All three websites have a rating system for all the hotels listed. People that have visited these hotels comment on the hotels and rate them. This is helpful because people if they really liked the hotel or if they didn’t, then they comment and don’t hold anything back. There are also pictures of the hotels and a list of the amenities.

Just to try it out, I said am “planning” on flying to Albuquerque, New Mexico from the Indianapolis Airport on November 25^th to the 29^th. After I had entered that data, I just hit find and the websites did the rest. I was really surprised by the results, I thought since it was such short notice that the prices would be higher, but the prices seem really reasonable.

Orbitz was very helpful and my favorite website. The website had a list of the highest rated hotels first and then where the prices are listed, there were six different prices. These different prices were for the different airlines that fly to Albuquerque. The flights are listed from least expensive to the most. So, if you wanted to fly with America Airlines, but weren’t sure if that was the best deal, you don’t have to worry, because Orbitz has already done the leg work for you. I could get this information for very little and it was all organized and made sense.

All three websites gave one hotel very high marks and said that it has the best deals for the best quality. The Hyatt Regency Albuquerque, It received a 4.5 out of a 5 rating system. The price: $423 per person (All taxes and fees included), it includes: 1 room for 4 nights. The hotel features: Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, High-speed Internet Access and it is only four miles from all the action. It’s on the higher end of the scale, but it seems to be well worth it. I highly suggest to anyone that is traveling and unsure of how they are getting there and where they will stay, to try using these websites.
