The bumper Black Friday weekend may have drawn to a close but there’s still time to grab a bargain – especially if you’re looking for your next travel fix.

Happy shoppers and bargain hunters have made the most of the sales to find their sought-after deals, with string of travel offers across Thanksgiving weekend , offering great value as package providers, airlines and hotel chains have lowered prices.

Many deals ended on Cyber Monday, 27 November, as companies from BA to Eurostar halted their busiest sale period for another year.

But for some companies, Black Friday was only the beginning. Across the board, several save amazing deals for a day dubbed “Travel Tuesday”, this year falling on 28 November. There will be even more discounts on flights, hotel stays and related travel deals from airlines and operators around the world, from Ryanair to Hawaiian Airlines.

And Simon Calder, travel correspondent for The Independent , says: “In the short term, the dying days of November and the first two weeks of December comprise the lowest of seasons when the airlines cut fares to whatever level they need to fill their planes.”

If you’ve been so far holding off on booking that holiday, wait no longer – we’ve got all the information you need to take advantage of the sales.

What is Travel Tuesday?

Falling the day after Cyber Monday every year, Travel Tuesday is to the travel industry what Cyber Monday is for tech and online deals. It’s a day of travel-only deals and savings, offered by hotel companies, airlines, travel agents and more.

Sometimes called “Travel Deals Tuesday”, it is a fairly recent phenomenon – less long-running than its Friday and Monday counterparts – and will fall on 28 November in 2023.

It’s a US phenomenon so we expect the best deals to be in the States or from US-based companies, but keep an eye out as there might be some surprises from other parts of the world.

What deals can we expect?

Ryanair have confirmed extra deals for Travel Tuesday. They are offering 10 per cent off on flights between Ireland and the UK, as well as discounted flights to several European destinations.

Virgin Holidays have extended their Cyber Monday sale, with customers able to save up to £200 per couple with the code HOLIDAY150. Virgin Hotels are offering 30 per cent off hotel bookings made between now and the end of the year.

The Hyatt hotel group is offering members 20 per cent off stays booked before December 5 for travel on or before 30 April, while Marriot Bonvoy will give members 20 per cent of hotel bookings made until the end of 28 November.

IHG Hotels are offering a saving of 20 per cent to members who book through the app, with Iberostar Beachfront Resorts offering up to 40 per cent.

Several airlines are joining in, with Spirit Airlines offering flights for just $20 to a variety of US cities, and Southwest running up to 30 per cent off base fares until 30 November.

Delta are currently offering SkyMiles scheme members up to $300 off hotel and flight bookings, while Frontier going a step further in selling an ‘all-you-can-fly’ pass for $500 to both domestic and international destinations.

Hawaiian Airlines have one-way fares available for just $91, while Alaska Airlines are offering fares from as little as $39.

More destination-specific airlines with deals include Aer Lingus , who offer savings of $100 on flights to Ireland, and French Bee , who have one-way tickets from LA to Paris from just $317. Play , a low-cost Icelandic carrier, has 35 per cent off lights to a variety of European cities including London and Copenhagen.

Further afield, Air New Zealand is offering discounts on round trips to several Oceanic destinations, with a return trip from LA to Auckland available for just $1,033. Singapore Airlines have reduced fares between the USA and Asia – one example being a $599 return trip from LA to Toyko – while Qatar Airways have fares from $810 across a range of cities in Asia.

Major cruise operators are getting in on the sales action too, with Royal Caribbean offering up to $750 off packages. Virgin Voyages will offer up to 30 per cent off all trips booked before the end of the month, while Oceania Cruises are offering $5,400 off bookings made until 5 December.

Hopper , a popular flight booking website, recounts that last year’s savings included money off flights and stays in Paris , Tokyo, Bali , Miami , Las Vegas and the Bahamas.

Elsewhere, other companies have sales running until 29 November, although we don’t currently know if there will be any special Tuesday-only discounts. For example, on Booking.com , you can still save up to 30 per cent on hotel bookings before the end of 2024.

Tips for shopping on Travel Tuesday

Firstly, it can be a good idea to browse deals on Monday 27 November, both to compare prices on the two days but also because the deal you see on Tuesday may well have been on offer over the Black Friday weekend.

As ever, set a budget and try your best to stick to it, but also try and be flexible with dates and destinations if you want to save the most money.

Sign up to be notified by your favourites providers, airlines or hotels, and try and book directly with them if possible, as they usually offer the best savings.

Travel + Leisure / Reese Herrington

When I say that I’m a traveler, I mean it. I’m typically packing my bags and jetting off to a new destination around two to three times per month every month, which means that I’ve mastered the art of packing (in a cool carry-on , no less) for just about any kind of trip in virtually no time at all. While the clothes and shoes that I pack for different climates tend to vary, my mainstay essentials are always locked and loaded in my luggage, and I can say with confidence that I’ve tried and tested some of the best (and most functional) gear around.

While Cyber Monday may be over, retailers like Amazon and more have been unveiling additional markdowns in honor of Travel Tuesday. There are still plenty of tempting sales to take advantage of during Cyber Week, so start exploring the best Travel Tuesday deals on gear and accessories now. These picks are the items that I never leave home without — all on sale now for a limited time only. 

Calpak Luka Duffel Bag

Every adventure that I take starts with my trusty Calpak Luka Duffel Bag in tow. This stylish weekender bag features plenty of roomy pockets to keep my essentials organized, a separate shoe compartment down below, and a luggage trolley sleeve to secure my bag on top of my luggage when I am whizzing through any airport. 

It comes in 21 eye-catching colors so there’s something for everyone, and the soft squishy exterior is ideal when you’re tight on space and stowing it in front of your feet on the plane. Even better? It's on sale for 20 percent off thanks to Calpak's massive sitewide sale.

Aloha Collection Mid Pouch Organizer

I tend to gravitate towards tropical destinations more times than not, and these splash-proof pouches from Aloha Collection are always part of my packing process. For starters, these lightweight bags are made of 100 percent coated Tyvek material, which makes them super easy to clean. They take up virtually no space and come in various sizes and silhouettes (including totes , dopp kits , and duffels ) and in plenty of punchy island-inspired prints that are perfect for stowing sunscreen, swimwear, bug repellant, and more in your bag without any risk of leaks while en route to paradise. 

They can even double as a casual clutch for a night out, so you’ll save space in the long run. Since Hawaii is my happy place (I find myself flying to Kauai, Maui, or Oahu any chance I can), I’m happy to support an AAPI-owned brand that always brings a smile to my face. Right now, you can enjoy 40 percent off sitewide through December 12. 

Spanx Booty Boost Active Leggings

If I’m boarding a plane, I’m likely wearing a pair of black compression leggings, and these booty-boosting ones from Spanx are arguably the best ones that I own. Not only do they smooth the hips, thighs, and tummy, but they also make me look (and feel) good from every angle. Featuring a high contoured waistband, these never stretch out and also boast sweat-wicking, quick-drying properties that really come in handy when you’re sitting for hours on end or racing through a terminal to make a connecting flight. 

The hidden pocket at the waistband is also handy when you need to keep your phone secure and stowed away, which is precisely what I needed when I was sightseeing around rainy Edinburgh, Scotland earlier this year. Stock up on a few pairs while they’re on sale — which hardly ever happens. 

Miiso Portable Slim Battery Pack

I’ve gone through my fair share of portable battery packs, and my latest find at Amazon is the Miiso Portable Charger, which is slim, stylish, and very practical. I love that it comes with built-in cables and is quite literally the size of a credit card so it’s always with me without adding bulk to my bag. 

What's more, this one comes in 12 colors, and my pro tip would be to pick a vibrant shade so you can easily spot this lifesaver when you need it most. At 23 percent off right now, this affordable find is too good to pass up.

Seavees Bodega Rain Clogs

During a recent getaway to Miami, I wore these cute and comfy clogs day in and day out while scoping out the art and culture scene in vibrant South Florida. Made of matte natural rubber with an ultra-grooved sole, these waterproof clogs come in several splashy colors and pair perfectly with trousers, daytime dresses, and denim alike. They served as the perfect seasonal transition shoe that kept me safe and secure when a little tropical rain fell upon us while walking to and from The Frost Science Museum and Pérez Art Museum Miami . 

I was so impressed with how supportive and stylish they were that I abandoned my go-to travel sneakers completely and wore these funky Seavees shoes every day of my trip. Now that they’re on sale, I’ve got my eyes on a few more colors to brighten up my wardrobe this winter. After all, no one wants a bulky pair of rainboots hogging up precious space in their suitcase. 

Cluci Travel Makeup Bag

I’m pretty picky when it comes to my toiletry bags, and this Cluci version won me over because it’s made of high-quality vegan leather and stores everything that I need in one compact case. The softshell exterior means that I can easily squish it in my carry-on when I’m tight on space, and the genius compartments (including a zippered closed pocket for makeup brushes) keep my cosmetics and skincare exactly where they need to be. 

The wide open design lays flat when unzipped which means I can easily access my products without making a mess in dazzling hotel bathrooms (a favorite of mine being the Moroccan-meets-old-Hollywood-glamour vibe designed by Martyn Lawrence Bullard at Hotel Californian in Santa Barbara.) For less than $20, this luxe-looking bag is definitely a must-buy. 

Oofos Oomg Recovery Boots

Last winter, I boarded a majestic Viking Cruise and set sail along the Rhine River to enjoy the enchanting holiday markets in Europe. Staying in a cozy cabin for 10 days meant packing as nimbly as possible, so I streamlined my footwear to just these versatile Oofos boots , and I’m so glad I did. Not only were they ultra-comfy and supportive for hours on end, but they kept me light on my feet and oddly energized despite walking for hours around tiny European villages in Germany, France, Switzerland, and The Netherlands. 

Lightweight, water-resistant, and perfectly packable, these recovery boots proved to be the real MVPs of the voyage. I own several pairs of Oofos shoes for all occasions (the sneakers and slides are essential on warm-weather vacations), so get them while they're 20 percent off with the code GIFT20 while you can. 

Case-Mate Waterproof Phone Pouch

A waterproof phone pouch is a must anytime you’re near water, and this dazzling design from Case-Mate is by far my favorite. Aptly named Soap Bubble, this fully protective phone pouch shimmers on the sand or in the sea (a rather useful feature I quickly discovered when I accidentally left it behind on a rock on a private island in Loreto and could quite literally see it glistening it back at me from the ocean) and never felt so grateful that I selected a super sparkly holographic case. 

The clasps are secure and easy to maneuver for quick transitioning when you need easy access to your phone; while the high-quality soft TPU material allows for touchscreen success time and time again. I also used this foolproof pouch during an ATV waterfall tour in Kauai and it allowed me to capture our rough and tumble (and very muddy) experience without any worries. This phone saver is worth every penny, and now that it’s on sale, I would buy it in bulk for years to come.

Tripole Mini Handheld Fan

Every time I touch down in a hot and humid place (I’m looking at you, Aruba), I whip out this personal handheld fan while waiting in the Customs line, and I’m immediately in better spirits than most of my fellow passengers. This compact miracle worker comes in 11 appealing colors and efficiently cools me off with a touch of a button. 

During a recent stay at the stunning Vidanta Los Cabos , I kept my handheld mini fan near me at all times — while watching flamenco dancers at El Bar Co, lounging at The Reserve Beach Club, or taking in the view from my sizable suite balcony — and felt drastically more comfortable in the balmy weather than without it. For 50 percent off at Amazon, you can’t beat this low Cyber Tuesday price. 

July Luggage Carry-On Pro Suitcase

It would be hard for me to pick my all-time favorite suitcase, but anything by July (they did design the lightest carry-on , which weighs in at under 4 pounds, after all) is a safe bet. Now that the site is offering a bundle-and-save promotion where shoppers can score 10 percent off on purchases starting at $300 or more through November 28, you should splurge on this striking Carry-On Pro Suitcase .

It features a detachable sleeve for your laptop, an ejectable battery pack for fast charging, the brand's signature SilentMove wheels, and so much more. I am also crushing on this cute everyday tote and sturdy trunk for extended travels, too. 

Murad Quick Relief Colloidal Oatmeal Treatment

Depending on where I am in the world, my hands tend to get dry and cracked and can be prone to unsightly eczema flare-ups when I’m stressed or off my circadian rhythm. There’s nothing worse than being far from home and also uncomfortable in my own skin, so I’ve learned to keep this fast-acting, therapeutic Murad cream with me at all times. 

This soothing treatment is packed with colloidal oatmeal and ground cherry to replenish and nourish the skin barrier on contact, and a little goes a long way. I use it as an everyday hand cream to soothe my skin at all times, and now that it’s 30 percent off for Cyber Week, I’m stocking up. Make sure to enter the promo code BF2023 before checking out to unlock the savings. 

Gatherall Adhesive Bra

When it comes to packing, I’m forever on the hunt for fashion hacks that help me save space in my suitcase, and the Gatherall Adhesive Bra has become my go-to staple anytime that I travel anywhere sunny (Maui, Miami, and Costa Rica, to name a few.) This backless, strapless silicone sticky bra never lets me down and is often the only bra I pack since it works seamlessly with every outfit imaginable. 

It’s washable and reusable, and can be worn up to 30 times, so packing multiple bras for numerous outfits will soon be a behavior of the past. Luckily, the brand is running its once-a-year sale right now, so you can score 20 percent off sitewide with the code BFCM20 for the entire month of November. 

Neewer Rechargeable Selfie Light

There’s nothing worse than blurry nighttime photos, especially when you’re trying to capture the moment somewhere spectacular.  Enter this handy selfie light , which is on sale for $26 and has saved me more times than I count — whether I’m in a dimly lit venue in need of a good photo or simply need to practice extra precaution when maneuvering about as a female solo traveler . It goes without saying that this gadget is a game-changer for creating crisp selfies and videos any time of day, but it’s also an essential during emergencies, too. 

Should you ever find yourself in a tropical storm or without power for any amount of time, this handy light will come in clutch and lasts for hours when fully charged. It easily clips to any phone, laptop, or tablet and brilliantly illuminates anything you need with the click of a button. I’ve relied on it to light up narrow spiral staircases inside Galata Tower in Istanbul and also to help me identify the tastiest chocolate clams that were charred in the sand (and then cooked on an open fire at a nighttime barbeque at Hotel Oasis in Loreto, too).

Airbnb Travel Tuesday deals typically begin on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving in the United States. This timing aligns with the holiday shopping season when many businesses offer significant discounts. The deals usually run for a limited time, often spanning several days, to attract travelers in search of holiday getaways. Each year, the specific start date may slightly vary, but it consistently falls within this timeframe. Booking early can help travelers secure the best offers.

How Can You Find the Best Airbnb Travel Tuesday Promo Codes?

You can find the best Airbnb Travel Tuesday promo codes by checking official Airbnb communications, using coupon websites, and subscribing to newsletters.

To locate the best promo codes for Airbnb, consider the following methods:

Official Airbnb Communications : Airbnb often shares promotional codes through their website and social media platforms. Regularly visit their homepage and check their promotions section.

Coupon Websites : Some websites specialize in collecting and sharing promo codes. Websites such as RetailMeNot or Honey often feature current Airbnb codes. These platforms aggregate user-submitted codes and can provide valuable savings.

Email Newsletters : Subscribing to Airbnb’s email list can keep you updated on exclusive offers. Confirming your subscription may provide access to special deals not available to the general public.

Social Media Channels : Follow Airbnb on platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. They may announce flash sales or limited-time promo codes via these channels.

Travel Forums and Blogs : Forums like Reddit and travel blogs sometimes share insider knowledge on current deals. Engaging with the travel community can yield useful information about promo codes.

Mobile App Promotions : Sometimes, Airbnb offers exclusive promotions for users who book through their mobile app. Downloading and checking the app regularly might reveal additional savings.

Using these methods increases your chances of finding valid Airbnb Travel Tuesday promo codes and maximizing your discounts.

What Platforms or Sources Should You Check for the Best Airbnb Discounts?

To find the best Airbnb discounts, individuals should check a variety of platforms and sources. These include official Airbnb promotions, third-party travel websites, social media deals, and direct host offers.

• Airbnb Official Promotions
• Third-Party Travel Websites
• Social Media Platforms
• Direct Host Discounts

Exploring these sources reveals multiple perspectives on securing discounts. Some users prefer the reliability of official promotions, while others enjoy the unique deals found through local hosts. This demonstrates that the search for discounts can be subjective, depending on individual preferences and travel needs.

Airbnb Official Promotions : Airbnb official promotions are direct offers provided by Airbnb. These deals may include seasonal discounts, referral credits, or travel credits for first-time users. For example, Airbnb often runs promotions during specific holidays or events to attract new users. According to Airbnb’s reports, approximately 60% of first-time users find significant savings through these official channels.

Third-Party Travel Websites : Third-party travel websites such as Expedia or Booking.com often list Airbnb properties and may offer exclusive discounts. These platforms provide a convenient way to compare prices across multiple listings. Research by Skyscanner in 2021 revealed that booking through a third-party site could save travelers around 15% on average compared to direct bookings.

Social Media Platforms : Social media platforms such as Instagram and Facebook frequently feature promo codes and discounts shared by hosts or Airbnb-related accounts. By following hosts and travel influencers, users may discover an array of special offers. A study by HubSpot in 2022 highlighted that engagement with travel posts can lead to average savings of up to 10% when booking through shared links.

Direct Host Discounts : Direct host discounts can be negotiated by reaching out to Airbnb hosts directly. Many hosts appreciate early bookings or repeat customers and may offer discounts to encourage reservations. According to a survey by Airbnb in 2023, about 40% of hosts are open to negotiation, indicating that prospective guests can often secure better rates by communicating directly with property owners.

Are There Trusted Websites That Regularly Post Airbnb Travel Deals?

Yes, there are trusted websites that regularly post Airbnb travel deals. These platforms aggregate various offers and discounts for Airbnb accommodations, helping travelers find the best rates and promotions.

Several prominent websites provide Airbnb deals, including DealMoon and Travelzoo. DealMoon features a special section for Airbnb offers that highlights significant discounts. Travelzoo, known for travel deals, frequently lists curated offers from Airbnb along with their own exclusive promotions. Both sites use user-friendly formats to display deals, making it easy for travelers to compare multiple options.

The benefits of using these websites include access to exclusive deals that are not available directly on Airbnb. For instance, Travelzoo reports that subscribers can save up to 40% on vacation rentals during promotional periods. Additionally, these platforms often have user reviews and ratings to help assess the quality of the property and deal.

On the other hand, there are potential drawbacks to relying on these websites. Notably, some deals may come with restrictions, such as limited stay dates or cancellation policies that differ from Airbnb’s standard terms. According to a 2023 report by Consumer Reports, 25% of users encountered challenges with hidden fees or misleading descriptions on third-party sites.

To maximize savings, travelers should regularly check multiple sites for updates on deals and promotions. It’s advisable to subscribe to newsletters from these platforms for alerts on new offers. Additionally, travelers should compare rates directly on Airbnb to ensure they receive the best possible price.

• Check social media and online travel communities for promo codes.

Understanding these steps can enhance your experience and potentially save you money.

Setting a budget for travel expenses: Setting a budget for travel expenses allows you to allocate sufficient resources for transportation, accommodation, and activities. A defined budget prevents overspending and helps prioritize spending categories.

Researching upcoming Travel Tuesday deals: Researching upcoming Travel Tuesday deals enables you to find discounts and special offers tailored for that day. This information is often released through travel blogs, social media, and email alerts.

Creating a wishlist of desired destinations and accommodations: By creating a wishlist, you can streamline your search for accommodations during Travel Tuesday. This helps simplify decision-making and ensures you target your preferred options.

Booking accommodation early: Booking accommodation early can lead to better rates and more availability. Many hosts offer lower prices when listings are first available, encouraging early reservation.

Signing up for email notifications from Airbnb: Signing up for email notifications ensures that you receive timely updates about upcoming deals and promotions. This can significantly enhance your chances of securing a discount during Travel Tuesday.

Using rewards points or travel credits: Using rewards points or travel credits can provide significant savings. Programs like credit card rewards or loyalty programs allow travelers to reduce overall costs when booking through Airbnb.

Staying flexible with travel dates: Staying flexible with travel dates can enable you to take advantage of lower pricing on accommodations. Hosts often adjust their rates based on demand, so booking during off-peak times can offer better deals.

Checking social media and online travel communities: Checking social media and online travel communities helps you discover promo codes and shared tips from fellow travelers. These platforms are useful for insights on promotions that may not be widely advertised.

How Can Creating an Airbnb Wishlist Enhance Your Travel Experience?

Creating an Airbnb wishlist enhances your travel experience by enabling better organization, informed decision-making, and personalized travel planning.

First, wishes can streamline your accommodation selection. This organization tool lets users curate their preferred listings in one place. By saving potential stays, travelers can easily compare options later. This reduces time spent searching through numerous properties. According to Airbnb data, users who create wishlists can save approximately 30% more properties than those who do not.

Second, wishlists facilitate informed decision-making. Travelers can view detailed descriptions, reviews, and photos within their lists. This access to comprehensive information helps users assess the suitability of each property. Research by Smith & Jones (2022) shows that 78% of travelers felt more confident in their choice after utilizing wishlists.

Third, wishlists allow for personalized travel planning. Users can tailor their selections based on specific travel needs, such as budget, location, and amenities. This customization leads to a higher likelihood of finding accommodations that cater to individual preferences. A survey conducted by Travel Insights (2023) indicated that personalized travel choices enhance overall satisfaction by 65%.

Lastly, creating a wishlist encourages social sharing. Travelers can invite friends or family to view their selected properties. This feature fosters collaboration and feedback in the planning process, making it more enjoyable. According to a study by Collaborative Travel (2021), groups that shared lists experienced a 40% increase in trip satisfaction.

In summary, an Airbnb wishlist significantly enhances the travel experience through better organization, informed decision-making, personalized options, and collaborative planning.

Should You Subscribe to Airbnb Emails for Exclusive Travel Tuesday Offers?

Yes, subscribing to Airbnb emails for exclusive Travel Tuesday offers can be beneficial.

Many subscribers receive discounts, updates, and travel tips directly from Airbnb. These emails often feature limited-time offers that can provide significant savings on accommodations. Additionally, subscribers may access early notifications for new destinations, experiences, or special promotions, enhancing their travel planning. Overall, being part of the mailing list can lead to better deals and a more informed travel experience.

How Can You Maximize Your Savings During Airbnb Travel Tuesday?

To maximize your savings during Airbnb Travel Tuesday, follow these strategies: book early, look for last-minute deals, apply promo codes, and use loyalty programs.

Booking early can lead to substantial savings. Many hosts offer discounts for early reservations. A study by the Vacation Rental Association (2020) found that travelers save an average of 15% when booking at least 30 days in advance compared to last-minute bookings.

Looking for last-minute deals can also maximize savings. Many hosts reduce prices to fill empty dates. According to data from AirDNA (2022), last-minute bookings can save travelers up to 20%.

Applying promo codes provides additional opportunities for discounts. Airbnb often shares promo codes through newsletters and social media. Travelers should check for these codes to maximize their savings. A survey from Airbnb Promotions (2021) showed that users who actively searched for promo codes saved an average of 12% on their bookings.

Using loyalty programs can increase savings as well. Programs like Airbnb Plus and Superhosts offer benefits such as priority support and enhanced experiences. According to Airbnb’s Insights Report (2023), 76% of loyalty program members save more on their stays compared to non-members.

These strategies, when combined, can significantly lower travel costs and enhance the overall Airbnb experience.

What Strategies Should You Employ to Ensure You Get the Best Deals?

To ensure you get the best deals, employ strategic planning and research. Utilize various approaches to maximize savings and optimize your purchasing decisions.

• Research Prices: Compare prices across multiple platforms.
• Sign Up for Newsletters: Receive alerts on discounts and promotions.
• Use Cashback Websites: Earn money back on purchases.
• Follow Social Media: Keep track of exclusive deals and flash sales.
• Leverage Credit Card Rewards: Utilize points or cashback offers.
• Time Your Purchases: Buy during off-peak seasons or during sales events.
• Negotiate Prices: Attempt to secure discounts, especially on big-ticket items.
• Monitor Price Drops: Use tools to alert you when prices decrease.

By implementing these strategies, you can effectively enhance your chances of finding the best deals. The following sections will explain each strategy in detail.

Research Prices : Research prices involves gathering information about products from different retailers. This ensures recognition of the standard market price. Websites like PriceGrabber and Google Shopping enable quick comparisons. A comprehensive study by Consumer Reports indicates that price comparisons can save consumers up to 50% on specific electronics.

Sign Up for Newsletters : Signing up for newsletters allows consumers to receive promotional alerts directly in their inbox. Retailers often offer exclusive discounts to subscribers. According to a 2021 Statista survey, 20% of consumers reported that they frequently used email offers during their shopping experiences. Such proactive communication helps customers remain informed on limited-time offers.

Use Cashback Websites : Using cashback websites entails visiting platforms like Rakuten or Swagbucks before making purchases. These sites rebate a percentage of the purchase price. Research by Deloitte shows that consumers can save an average of $100 annually through cashback opportunities.

Follow Social Media : Following retailers on social media channels keeps consumers updated on time-sensitive offers. Brands like Target or Macy’s frequently announce flash sales on platforms like Instagram or Facebook. According to a 2022 HubSpot report, 73% of marketers believe social media is effective for promoting sales.

Leverage Credit Card Rewards : Leveraging credit card rewards involves using cards that offer points or cashback. Many financial institutions incentivize spending to rank higher on points accumulation. A report from the Federal Reserve indicates that U.S. households earned an average of $1,250 in rewards annually through credit card use.

Time Your Purchases : Timing your purchases means being aware of peak sales periods, such as Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Shopping in off-peak seasons can lead to significant savings. The National Retail Federation indicates that holiday sales alone generated over $700 billion in 2021, showcasing the financial philosophy behind strategic timing.

Negotiate Prices : Negotiating prices is a common practice in markets. Consumers can ask for discounts directly, particularly with large purchases like furniture or cars. Research from the University of Chicago showed that nearly 70% of consumers successfully negotiated lower prices when inquiring directly.

Monitor Price Drops : Monitoring price drops involves using digital tools like Honey or CamelCamelCamel that alert users when prices decrease. Such tools empower consumers to make purchases when prices align with their budgets. A 2023 report by RetailMeNot noted that 62% of consumers track price changes to maximize savings.

These strategies combine proactive research, effective communication, and careful timing to ensure consumers can secure the best deals available.

Are There Other Discounts or Promotions You Can Combine with Airbnb Deals?

Yes, you can combine some discounts and promotions with Airbnb deals. However, the ability to do so often depends on the specific terms and conditions set by Airbnb and the nature of the promotions.

Airbnb offers various types of promotions, such as travel credits, referral bonuses, and seasonal discounts. Travel credits can be applied towards future bookings, while referral bonuses reward users for inviting friends. Seasonal discounts may include lower rates during off-peak times. Travelers should note that not all promotions can be stacked. For instance, a seasonal discount might not apply to an already discounted property or a special offer like a last-minute deal.

The positive aspect of combining discounts and promotions is the potential for significant savings. For example, if a traveler uses a referral bonus while booking a property that is already on sale, they could see a considerable reduction in their total cost. According to Airbnb, users who utilize promotions can save up to 20% on their trips, enhancing the overall travel experience. This aspect encourages more users to book through Airbnb, creating a larger customer base.

On the negative side, navigating the combination of promotions can be complicated. Certain restrictions or limitations may apply. For instance, a user might find that a special offer is valid only for specific listings or cannot be combined with other discounts. Additionally, some promotions may have expiration dates, prompting users to act quickly. A Consumer Reports survey from 2022 indicated that nearly 30% of travelers felt confused by discount terms, which could lead to missed opportunities for savings.

To maximize savings on Airbnb, travelers should actively search for ongoing promotions on the site. They should also review the terms and conditions associated with any discount before booking. If possible, consider booking during promotional periods or exploring referral opportunities. Individual needs, such as length of stay or travel frequency, should also inform which promotions will be most beneficial for that specific user.

Tech Matters: How to prepare for Travel Tuesday

By leslie meredith - special to the standard-examiner | nov 8, 2023.

Photo supplied

While Black Friday and Cyber Monday are well-known days to score savings on your holiday gifts, did you know that travel-related things like airline tickets, hotels and cruises have a dedicated savings day too? It’s called Travel Tuesday and falls on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving.

Because these are big-ticket items that may be impossible or pricey to return, you’ll want to do more preparation than you would for a Black Friday deal on a robot vacuum. So here’s your guide to making the most of Travel Tuesday.

Like with Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, retailers aim for a sense of urgency or what marketers refer to as FOMO — fear of missing out. They’re banking on holiday shoppers seeing big discounts on things like TVs and laptops and snapping them up while not paying attention to model year and features. They aim to move inventory and you want to save money, which is fine as long as you know exactly what you want. Further, stores want you to buy additional items on impulse, unable to pass up a “great deal.”

So it is with Travel Tuesday. The best advice is to plan ahead. Focus on where you want to go in 2024 – pick some options that are agreeable to your travel mates so that you can choose among available deals. Stick to your list. Determine dates, and again, it would be smart to include several options, along with the number of travelers and your budget. Families who have decided to replace individual gifts with a family vacation take note. If you’re expecting adult children to pitch in for the trip, make sure everyone is on board and comfortable with their share of the expense.

Once you’ve set your destination, timing and budget, research current travel prices. Google Flights is a good source for determining the cost of tickets throughout the year and across most major airlines. Get prices for accommodations whether that’s a hotel or an Airbnb. I’d research both so that if a great hotel deal became available, I could compare it to the cost of a selected Airbnb.

Add the travel providers’ websites to your document for quick access and follow their accounts on social media in case a company posts or teases a deal on social. Put your research into a spreadsheet and keep it handy for holiday shopping. You’ll be able to see immediately if a travel deal is good based on your figures and avoid an impulse buy.

You’ll be happy to know that major brands participate in Travel Tuesday. Last year, JetBlue, Alaska Airlines and Aer Lingus offered deals on airfare, while Marriott, Hyatt, Virgin Hotels and others had specials for accommodations. Cruise lines offered steep discounts, including Seabourn where customers saved 15% off a stateroom and received additional perks.

With Travel Tuesday growing in popularity, you’ll have to be extra vigilant to avoid scams. Always go to a provider’s website from your search window, not from a link in an email or one on social media. This is not the time to try out a new app or website or buy from an unfamiliar account on Instagram. Stick to brands you know and trust and their official online channels.

Most travel deals are offered over several days so you’ll likely have more time than just Tuesday to do your shopping. Some will start on Black Friday and last into December. However, inventory may be limited and deals can sell out before the sale officially ends. Don’t let the pressure get to you: Missing a deal is better than buying one that doesn’t fit your criteria.

Before you click “buy,” check the fine print for any restrictions. The most common limitation is the time frame. There may be blackout dates or short travel windows. There may be extra fees such as baggage fees on discount airlines that will make a flight the same cost as one on a major airline, or resort fees, service fees and city taxes at hotels. Note the provider’s cancellation policy and any associated fees. Once you have your travel selections, consult your fellow travelers to confirm the arrangements. Now you can buy — bon voyage!

Median cleaning fees

Comparing the cost per night, comparing the cost per person, the most optimal time to book an airbnb, pricewise, easy ways to save money on airbnb.

Check the cleaning fee before you book, and realize that short stays might not be worthwhile.

Airbnbs often aren’t the best deal for short stays. Though, longer stays almost always entail lower nightly rates, making them especially appealing for multi-week or month stays.

Couples are almost always better off booking a hotel, but groups who would otherwise book multiple rooms, with two adults per room, almost always save by sharing a larger Airbnb.

Book your Airbnb about four weeks ahead of your trip to get the lowest price.

Swapping hotel bookings for Airbnb lodging used to be one of the best money-saving travel tips. Today, that’s not always the case.

A June 2022 NerdWallet analysis looked at 1,000 U.S. Airbnb reservations across a range of locations and qualities with check-in dates in 2022 and 2023 to really understand how much they cost. Though, the study only considered "entire place" properties (as opposed to a single room in a larger home).

Airbnb prices were then compared against a NerdWallet database of nearly 1,000 U.S. hotel rooms in the same cities, also spread across a range of classes and locations. Although there’s no way to compare direct costs since every Airbnb is different, NerdWallet uncovered some key findings for when Airbnbs are better or worse value than a hotel.

Here are the results of our Airbnb pricing data collection.

Airbnb's cleaning fees can be brutal , and are among the most hotly debated aspects of the home rental platform — and they’re a fee you’re unlikely to find at any hotel. These one-time fees are pocketed by the host to cover the cost of cleaning their space, and come on top of the base price as well as a service fee.

While fees vary (and 15% of listings didn’t have a cleaning fee at all), the median cleaning fee per listing for a one night stay was $75.

The nightly rate for the average seven-night Airbnb stay was 32% cheaper than a one-night stay. Plus, savings get bigger with trip length; the nightly rate for a 30-night stay was 46% cheaper per night than a one-night stay.

Reasons why longer stays are cheaper include host-offered discounts; hosts would generally prefer having fewer bookings to manage and ensure occupancy. Throw in the aforementioned one-time cleaning fee, plus taxes because in many cities, stays of 30 days or more aren’t subject to hotel occupancy taxes. It’s clear why longer stays are cheaper per night.

NerdWallet compared the price per head at Airbnbs with a max capacity of two adults versus a hotel in the same city. It also compared the cost of an Airbnb with a max capacity of six people against the cost to book three hotel rooms (assuming two adults per room).

The average Airbnb for six was 33% cheaper than booking three hotel rooms . But the average hotel was 29% cheaper than booking an Airbnb for two.

Here’s how median costs broke down, per person:

A separate NerdWallet study found that booking a hotel at the last minute can lead to savings of about 13% off the price of a hotel room, on average. But what about when booking an Airbnb?

NerdWallet considered Airbnb prices that included cleaning fees, long-term discounts and base costs when booking in advance versus short term. Here are our findings:

It turns out that booking an Airbnb four weeks in advance yields the lowest median price — $270.80. This is roughly $30 cheaper than booking it almost a year in advance, and about $50 cheaper than booking it last-minute.

Use travel credit cards: Many credit cards that offer rewards for travel expenses include more than simply airfare and hotel stays. You may even look to certain credit cards for Airbnb . Check with your bank, but bonus points for money spent on travel might mean bonus points on your Airbnb, too.

Consider the amenities: While amenities vary by listing, consider how an Airbnb might save you money versus a hotel. Does the hotel have additional fees, like a resort fee? Will it charge you for parking, while the Airbnb driveway is free? Can you save money by using the Airbnb kitchen and laundry?

Book through shopping portals or with discounted gift cards: Some websites sell discounted gift cards — and some credit cards entail discounts on gift cards. For example, purchase an Airbnb gift card through Target via a Target-branded debit or credit card for an automatic 5% savings.

If it’s airline miles you’re after, many airline shopping portals sell Airbnb gift cards that allow you to earn bonus miles for that purchase. Not only will you earn the airline miles, but you’ll also "double-dip" by earning your usual credit card rewards.

How to maximize your rewards

You want a travel credit card that prioritizes what’s important to you. Here are some of the best travel credit cards of 2024 :

Flexibility, point transfers and a large bonus: Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card
