Well-Traveled Expert New Year Tips<br />
As you prepare for the holidays and<br />
begin thinking about your New Year’s<br />
resolutions, I have one for your list:<br />
be<strong>com</strong>e well-traveled. This will be even<br />
easier to ac<strong>com</strong>plish in 2010, which<br />
is shaping up to bring you even better<br />
deals and discounts than those offered<br />
in 2009. Each month, we'll bring great<br />
offers that you'll want to check out. Information and<br />
research are two key ingredients to help with your New<br />
Year’s resolution and allow you to travel well.<br />
Every year between Christmas and the New Year, we see<br />
a spike in travel inquiries and bookings. When families<br />
gather, they tend to talk about experiences they would<br />
like to share together. Stop by one of our stores, give<br />
us a call or visit our website to get a jump-start on your<br />
information gathering-you will be the most popular one<br />
at the holiday dinner table.<br />
Once you talk about dates and ideas, hit the second<br />
annual AAA Great Vacations Expo, January 22 -24,<br />
at Veteran’s Memorial. Here you can talk to over 100<br />
exhibitors who offer fun-filled vacations around Ohio,<br />
the U.S. and the world! Come ready with your calendar<br />
and credit card, and take advantage of great show-only<br />
deals. Bring the whole family for awesome entertainment<br />
and one-on-one time with travel industry experts. Kid’s<br />
Day is Saturday, when Nickelodeon’s Dora the Explorer<br />
will be roaming the floor, and Jack Hanna will take<br />
center stage. Be in the audience on Sunday if you are<br />

So, what is the forecast for travel deals in 2010? Great<br />
offers on cruises to virtually any destination in the world,<br />
many international vacations with free airfare, and if sun<br />
and fun is your thing, you will find outstanding deals<br />
throughout the Caribbean and Mexico. Domestically, the<br />
top twenty travel destinations continue to offer additional<br />
nights at no extra cost. And who could forget the mouse<br />
down South? January is Disney Month at AAA, so be on<br />
the lookout for amazing 2010 deals. If you are headed<br />
to central Florida and find that lodging is breaking the<br />
budget, I have a deal for you! I recently visited central<br />
Florida, and for the first time in my travels I stayed at an<br />
extended stay property. The Lake Buena Vista Resort and<br />
Spa, located just minutes from Disney, offers beautiful and<br />
spacious units that include two, three, or four bedrooms<br />
with a large living room, dining room, balcony and a<br />
fully-equipped kitchen. Two bedroom suites start at just<br />
$121 per night when you book with AAA, considerably<br />
less than a one-room, on-site Disney property.<br />
As the economy continues to recover, our partners will<br />
be closely watching their inventory, so book as early as<br />
possible, and get in touch with AAA to be in the know.<br />
