Making use of student travel services and student travel discounts is a tremendous way to save money--especially if you are travelling a great distance. Here are a few ideas and resources for student travelers.

Hotel Deals from Hotels.Com


Hotels.com offers some truly great discounts for travelers. You'll have to do some planning ahead of time and really commit yourself to spending some time searching through their site, but students on limited budgets can find terrific break/vacation packages here.

Travelocity SAVES You 20% or MORE on Air Fares


Travelocity is one of my favorite travel sites. If you're willing to commit some time and do some planning, you can find very reasonable airefares to just about anywhere. The site also offers terrific last minute packages for travelers who decide today that they want to travel tomorrow.

Until next time!
