I just finished reading the updated (2nd Edition) of "<a href="http://airfare-secrets.going2oahu.com/">Airfare Secrets Revealed</a>" (Tom Rhoades) and thought I'd share my opinion here on Travel Blog Widgets. <br />
<div></div><br />
My first reaction, interestingly enough, was not about the text but rather all of the included bonuses. When you purchase <a href="http://www.airfare-now.com/2009/11/save-on-airfare-secrets-by-tony.html">Airfare Secrets Revealed</a>, you not only get the book but you also get a boatload of very nice freebies. For example:<br />
<div></div><br />
Last Minute Traveller - FREE! <br />
Holiday Plus! Software - FREE! <br />
Party Travel - FREE! <br />
How to Be an Air Courier - FREE! <br />
Taking the Perfect Camera Shot - FREE! <br />
Budget Travel Guide - FREE! <br />
How to Budget a Family Vacation - FREE! <br />
7 Language Phrase Books - FREE! <br />
and a promise of Lifetime Updates for Fly Cheap! - FREE! <br />
<br />
All of the freebies will be useful, but I especially liked the butget guides for family travel and family vacations. These two guides are so useful, in fact, that I have already transferred them both to my travel laptop! I had forgotten that the eBook came with all of this other stuff and was VERY pleasantly surprised.<br />
<br />
As for the Airfare Secrets Revealed eBook, I'm in the travel business and was familiar with many of the techniques. I did however get two very novel and new techniques that blew me away. These are techniques that the novice traveler can use but they can also be utilized by pros in the travel industry. For the everyday traveler, I thought the book was well written and would definitely make good on it's promise to deliver airfare savings strategies.<br />
<br />
The fact is, airlines are filling up the seats faster than ever and most of the travel sites are acting as brokers to help them. Whether you book your airfare through a third-party site or you book it directly through the airline, the more upcharge you spend on your airfare, the more money they make. The objective of this eBook is to ensure that you get the absolute best price on airfare that you possibly can!<br />
<br />
According to the author,<br />
<br />
<blockquote><i>"Airfare Secrets Revealed is guaranteed to save you significant money on your next flight - and every flight you book from this day on!"</i></blockquote>I'd suggest you check out the eBook and all of the accompanying freebies by visiting the author's website:<br />

<br />
Le Pozze di Lecchi is one of the most fascinating places in the Chianti valley; a Relais, where the original structure of the medieval village has been retained in perfect harmony with the surrounding countryside. <a href="http://www.lepozzedilecchi.it/">Hotel Le Pozze di Lecchi</a> is situated in the heart of the Chianti Classico "Gallo Nero" territory, famous throughout the world for its wines, vineyards and wine cellars. In addition, the village lies between two important Tuscan cities of art: Siena is just 20 km away and Florence is 42 km away. <br />
<br />
The main characteristics of this charming 4 star Hotel are the green countryside, the suggestive atmosphere of times gone by, a beautiful swimming pool, overlooking the entire valley, the welcoming restaurant serving a Tuscan evening menu, the nice spa room and the well-stocked wine shop where a range of Chianti wines <br />

The 14 rooms are all <a href="http://eating-out-review.com/panera-pick-2/">online current panera coupons</a> independent one from the other and have been created within the original houses of the medieval hamlet. With period furniture, en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, telephone, satellite television and minibar, the rooms look on to the charming park. The breakfast room, the bar, the beautiful restaurant ensure a pleasant stay in a smart and welcoming environment. <br />
<br />
In the heart of the Chianti region near Siena our Hotel restaurant offers guests the typical “Chiantigiana” Tuscan cuisine. Aromatic herbs growing naturally in this region allow our Chef to recreate old country recipes with a delicate harmony of flavours; historic dishes, dressed with the extravergin olive oil which we are so proud of, are accompanied by our superb Chianti Classico and Chianti Classico Riserva wines.Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16226311474491401869noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670979252094411313.post-43100450861290303242010-03-10T18:58:00.000-08:002010-03-10T19:11:47.755-08:00Saving Money on Summer Travel (And Summer Utilities Too)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIuw64COsO9iBz8HZ_0NHgAZPlDr2avYvfnaHte3Z7q1m2zlNvc5w8n3jZUECjnvACWCqG2RIQD9dDAdWbdXDXNRT3C9I5t8-gJIhD6kZdqkD66u8dy-lqhw9liqkwumzLAIb0teicfc5J/s1600-h/travel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIuw64COsO9iBz8HZ_0NHgAZPlDr2avYvfnaHte3Z7q1m2zlNvc5w8n3jZUECjnvACWCqG2RIQD9dDAdWbdXDXNRT3C9I5t8-gJIhD6kZdqkD66u8dy-lqhw9liqkwumzLAIb0teicfc5J/s200/travel.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><b>A Travel Widget for Your Home</b><br />
<br />
The summer travel season will soon be upon us so here are two questions for you to ponder... <br />
<br />
1. While you're busily locating those summer travel deals are you simultaneously dreading those summer electric bills?<br />
<br />
2. Does your home's furnace and air conditioner thermostat only have three settings -- up, down, and off?<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><object height="285" width="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XFPvXQrU1oM&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/XFPvXQrU1oM&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="340" height="285"></embed></object></div><br />
If your answer is yes to either of those questions, the <a href="http://www.microsoft-hohm.com/">Energy saving</a> video above will show you how to install a programmable thermostat in your home which can save you a lot of money on <a href="http://www.microsoft-hohm.com/Recommendations/Library.aspx">home energy</a> consumption and give you lots of extra cash to spend on summer travel. <br />
<br />
Microsoft Hohm's energy-aware website has some terrific ideas on how to save money on home energy consumption. This programmable thermostat for instance is super smart, super easy to install, and absolutely worth the small amount of hassle it will take to purchase the unit and get it working. And if you plan to travel on and off this summer you will be very glad that you put in in when those utility bills roll around! The best advice in that particular clip is the strong suggestion that you secure the wires before you pull the old thermostat out. You do not want to have to fish around for those wires again or be forced to run new leads.<br />
<br />
The Hohm site renders personalized reports on your current energy efficiency (or inefficiency) and it features how-to videos that will show you how to save money on nearly all of your <a href="http://www.microsoft-hohm.com/Recommendations/Library.aspx?area=Appliances">home appliances</a>. It's still a little cold outside in the evenings but you can turn the heat off for the small amount of time required to install the unit and start saving on heat costs right away. Plus, if your thermostat is a dual unit you'll be ready to get ahead on air conditioning costs.<br />
<br />
So visit the Hohm site when you get a minute and get your home ready for the summer travel season!Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16226311474491401869noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670979252094411313.post-31703073934035470702010-02-15T19:39:00.000-08:002010-02-15T19:40:14.592-08:00Airfare Questions on Yahoo!

<br />
I really enjoy reading the comments I get here on My Travel Blog Widgets and I hope you'll continue to be a regular reader for years to come. One of my favorite websites for doing travel research is Yahoo Answers. There are always current and unanswered questions from members there and it's fun to read what's on people's minds.<br />
<br />
One of the recurring travel related questions I've seen in the last few weeks is,<br />
<blockquote><i>"Can I Get an Airfare Refund on my Haiti Ticket?" </i></blockquote>If you've purchased and are holding airfare to Haiti, I'm sure you're painfully aware that no commercial flights are permitted in or out of Port-au-Prince Haiti. You can hold on to your airfare if you want, but the airlines are first to admit that they have no idea when regular flights will resume. If you have travel plans to Haiti, we strongly suggest contacting your airline for a courtesy refund. From all indications, it sounds like most of the airlines are cooperating with customer requests as a gesture of goodwill.<br />
<br />
The answers that Yahoo! Answers members submitted were mixed with several saying what I just said but lots of them saying you're out of luck.<br />
<br />
Besides the travel related questions, I've also seen tons of questions about prescription eyeglasses. Eric Hammer's <a href="http://www.examiner.com/x-28795-Brooklyn-Liberal-Examiner%7Ey2009m11d13-Cheap-eyeglasses-are-a-reality-Check-out-Erics-review-of-Zenni-Optical">review</a> of Zenni Optical says they tops with the highest quality <a href="http://zennioptical.com/cart/home.php?cat=31">eyeglasses</a> being sold for 8 dollars per pair.

<br />
<b>New Perks for American Airlines Elite Status Members</b><br />
<br />
American Airlines has announced the addition of new privileges for its top customers called PriorityAccess. <br />
<br />
AAdvantage elite status members (executive platinum, platinum, gold AAdvantage or Oneworld Alliance emerald, sapphire or ruby), first and business class travelers, AAirpass customers and economy class travelers with full fare tickets will all benefit from the addition of these perks: <br />
<br />
- Dedicated check-in lines at every airport <a href="http://last-minute-flights-blog.blogspot.com/2009/05/airfare-now-com-southwest-ding-alerts.html">American Airlines</a> serves<br />
<br />
- Separate PriorityAccess security lanes at the 10 largest airports it services, as well as select others based on TSA permission. The airports with confirmed PriorityAccess lanes are Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago O’hare, Miami, Los Angeles (LAX), New York JFK, New York La Guardia, St. Louis, San Francisco, Boston and San Juan.<br />
<br />
- Separate boarding lanes at the gates that allow passengers to bypass general boarding lines<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.aa.com/content/amrcorp/pressReleases/2008_09/22_aaccess.jhtml">American Airlines website</a> describes each perk as follows:<br />
<br />
<u>PriorityAAccess Check-In</u> <br />
PriorityAAccess customers will enjoy their own dedicated check-in area at the ticket counter with distinctive signage clearly identifying PriorityAAccess lines. In addition, “PriorityAAccess” will be printed on boarding passes, designating travelers as American’s top customers. American will offer PriorityAAccess check-in areas at all of the airports it serves worldwide. <br />
<br />
<u>PriorityAAccess Security Screening</u> <br />
Where permitted by airport policy and government security regulations, American will offer exclusive PriorityAAccess security screening lanes. Like the dedicated check-in lines, PriorityAAccess screening lanes will be clearly marked with special signage. Currently, American plans to offer PriorityAAccess screening lanes in its 10 largest airports, as well as in other airports where permitted by the TSA. <br />
<br />
<u>PriorityAAccess Boarding Lanes</u> <br />
To further enhance convenience for its top customers,American will offer dual boarding lanes at its gates – one for PriorityAAccess customers and one for general boarding. Customers with PriorityAccess privileges will be invited to board first or board at any time through their exclusive PriorityAAccess lane, which allows them to bypass lines after general boarding has begun.aloha nui loa ~http://www.blogger.com/profile/00226589681545817320noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670979252094411313.post-89493085122833885242009-10-31T08:58:00.000-07:002009-11-14T20:39:40.707-08:00How To Save 80% To 100% On Your Next Vacation<div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://86ce1epc055lebw2skv--cqp4s.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=10MTBW31" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqd_f3hx5nwTfOA7DtIqQbZ9m1Yq_CWLMmByWqcTrv6-lC73OcsJli424nx4fgqML8Qne2Zomdmu6jvEYf_CculMzYqPwHaSEqLCm5we3XZm6SDSFLy1cita3atAUWlmG6Jnx3bIiyDbm7/s320/how-to-save-on-vacation.jpg" /></a><br />

Love to Travel?<br />
<br />
The description touts "travel guides, amazing pictures and industry news" but I can assure you that the <a href="http://www.journeyetc.com/">Travel Guides, Luxury Travel Destinations and Hotels</a> blog has much more to offer than that.</div><br />
I have been an avid reader since the early days so I thought I'd finally publish a handy widget for two very selfish reasons:<br />
<ul><li>so I can get to the good stuff fast</li>
<li>to share this little gem with the rest of the world</li>

Frequent travelers are all too familiar with the online travel like Expedia, Orbitz, and Travelocity, but lesser known travel search engines check multiple sites at once and can uncover Web specials and airlines that the big three online agencies somtimes miss.<br />
<br />
The Kayak Travel Widget searches multiple travel sites (including Orbitz) simultaneously. Use it to find flights, hotels, cars, and cruises.<br />
