Your 2012 Travel Resolutions

Friday, December 30th, 2011

Yeah, yeah, we all resolve to eat better, exercise more, and finally clean out that hall closet… But how about promising to swear off of the excuses that have kept you from taking that trip you’ve always dreamed of?

Take a moment to read Gadling’s ‘Ten Travel Excuses Not to Make in 2012′ - and then turn one of those dream destinations into an itinerary!

Your friendly AirportParkingReservations.com blogger, Rebecca - hi there! - is thinking about Mexico, Costa Rica, or a return to Kauai. After this year’s amazing & action-packed, but pricey & long-flighted honeymoon in South Africa (22 hours each way), close to home sounds heavenly.

We’d love to hear what trips you have in mind… Visit us on Facebook or Twitter to tell us where 2012 will take you!

Next Year, Christmas in Hawaii!

Monday, December 26th, 2011

We’ve all thought it - spending the winter holidays sleeping on a 30-year-old sofa bed in one’s frigid hometown is not all it’s cracked up to be. Maybe next year, we should go someplace warm! With hotel rooms! And a beach!

Say no more. Check out Travel & Leisure’s ‘Best Cities for Winter Travel’, and start planting seeds in the family’s mind now.

Or keep it to yourself. We won’t say a word.

Saturday, December 24th, 2011

It’s a rare person who enjoys the part of the trip involving the airport. As much as the destination is worth the trouble, the logistics of travel are just no fun.

There’s nothing travelers can do to prevent flight delays, crappy airport food, or luggage mishaps. However, the application of some simple mindfulness techniques can make those things a lot easier to endure.

Happy, happy holidays from each of us at AirportParkingReservations.com. We wish you and yours a 2012 full of safe, peaceful travels.
