Hotel Last Minute Deals!!

Hotel Last Minute Deals.com is a hotel booking site with several useful
features which may suit you. Like all
hotel booking sites you can search for a hotel by location (worldwide) and then
be presented with a list of options to choose from. The site is straight
forward and smoothly runs from search to results without any unnecessary
information. The search results are also presented in a simple way so that you don't
have to wade through tons of text before selecting a hotel. Only after you have
selected your hotel you can read as much as you like about that property. The hotel
details are comprehensive and include photos.

This is not a hotel search engine which forwards your inquiry to
another booking site, it is a booking site itself. So you know who you are
dealing with.

There are a few features that may appeal to you:
§ On the landing page there is a poll asking users what destinations they are interested in receiving special deals for. "For which destination do you want us to negotiate deals?"
§ Also on the landing page you can fill in your details to receive a Hotel Deal Newsletter.
§ There are "Top Hotel Deals Categories" like cheap Disney hotels, cheap luxury hotels, cheap Cancun resorts etc.
§ You can make group bookings on Hotel Last Minute Deals.com.
§ There is a toll free number not only for US and Canadian users but also for international callers which is not a common feature on hotel booking sites.
§ In addition to the toll free numbers you can use a Promotion Code to get further online discounts.

Give this site a try, you may be pleasantly surprised by the low rates on the best hotels.

Carry On Luggage - How much is allowed?

In the past few years the rules have changed about how much luggage
you can take onto a flight and how much it will cost you. Gone are the days of
throwing all your things into a suitcase and checking it in as baggage without
a second thought. Airlines now either charge for all checked-in baggage or they
set you an impossible limit (average of about 20 kg) and then charge you exorbitant
prices for every kilo extra.

This has led to travelers putting more attention on cabin luggage
or carry-on luggage as it is free! That’s right if you can stuff everything
into your hand luggage you can save on your flight by not having to pay for
luggage in the hold.

This leads to another dilemma – what constitutes hand luggage? Are
all airline policies about carry-on luggage the same? Is it the size that
counts or the weight? In other words whether it is your first trip or if you
are a seasoned traveler you will find this site extremely useful and it will
probably save you a lot of time and money.

Kabinvaskor.se's site Carry On Luggage supplies the following information:
· You can choose to see the dimensions and weight in metric or pounds and inches.
· Every airline is listed with its carry-on luggage policy specifications, both dimensions and
weight.
· Once you have found out what kind of bag you need for the airline you are using the site also has a link to where you can buy bags with those specifications.
· There are airline updates if the rules change.
· There are several useful links from this site to information like: Passenger rights and airport
check-in rules

The most useful and original feature of this site is the "Test Button" where you can type in your bag's dimensions and instantly be told "which airlines will accept your carry-on bag".
This site is incredibly useful to travelers who want to take advantage of the fact that (at least at the moment) airlines don't charge for carry-on luggage.

Abu-Dhabi is a luxurious and exotic travel destination on the Arabian Peninsula which offers a blend of an ultra-modern city along miles of beach and deep blue sea as well as a rich history of traditional Bedouin and Arabic life. There is also the desert just a short ride away which brings with it many adventurous opportunities for travelers. Western travelers are only just discovering this hot travel destination and Abu-Dhabi-Expert.com is the perfect tool to plan a trip to Abu Dhabi.

There are not a lot of travel sites about the United Arab Emirates, and even fewer about Abu Dhabi. When there are sites about Abu Dhabi they are often sponsored by hotels or companies with other interests. Here is a travel website about Abu Dhabi which presents all the information you could possibly need or want when planning a trip to Abu Dhabi.

The layout of the site is simple and straightforward making it easy to navigate and find the information you are looking for. In the sidebar of the landing page is a long list of categories like festivals, kids, exhibitions, Visas, pets, hotels, dates, diving, schools, falconry, fitness, attractions and housing. Using this you can filter your search to suit your needs. The site covers a myriad of aspects to do with visiting and even living in Abu Dhabi. You won't find a more comprehensive site about Abu Dhabi, it really is a one-stop source of everything Abu Dhabi!

Once you have gone to the page that interests you will find interesting articles on the subject but also all the important details that are often omitted from travel sites like open hours, entrance fees to attractions and addresses. There is also a site blog with current posts. What makes Abu-Dhabi-Expert.com special is the first hand knowledge of the writer; the vast aspects of travel in Abu Dhabi and expat life in Abu Dhabi.

There are plenty of photos (although there could be more) and a map for each attraction pin pointing your destination. The owner of the site lived in Abu Dhabi and knows the place thoroughly, there is no doubt this is the site to use when planning a trip to Abu Dhabi, you won't have to look anywhere else!

If you didn't want to visit Abu Dhabi before then after seeing this site you probably will!

Booking Hotels Online

When you Google a hotel name withthe intent of booking it the top results in Google are usually not the actual hotel's site which is a bit irritating. It seems logical that the actual name of the place would be top of the list, but it's not! Trip Advisor gets a lot of the top of the Google search result spots. So to find the actual hotel site scroll down the search results and read the URL address until you find one that just names the hotel.

Compare the rates offered on the hotel site with those offered on HotelsCombined. HotelsCombined is the best hotel search engine I have come across, it brings you the rates offered on all the hotel booking sites for each hotel in an easy to understand list.

Only then decide where you are going to book.
