Tip for US Air customers to save money

When booking a flight on US Air%26#39;s website, be sure to also use the US Air Vacations portion of the site even if you have other hotel plans or comped rooms.

Sample- A early December trip from Philly to Vegas is $404 person. However if you use the USAir vacations the same trip is only $364 including 5 nigths at Fitzgeralds downtown. So you are better off booking this vacation and not showing up for the room at the Fitz if you have comped rooms elsewhere.

Worth a check for other dates and cities as part of your search.

Now for all their fees...thats another story!

Good hunting Buffbillsfan. Also, I%26#39;m really going to miss Tim. I really liked him. He was an asset to Buffalo.

He was and also Mitch Ferrotte died this week from the early 90%26#39;s teams.

Thank you so much for this great post! I just did a search and flights + 4 nights at Bellagio for 3 people came out to $2000 incl tax. Well considering a direct return flight from Toronto to Vegas costs $600 a person, we would be basically staying at Bellagio for $200 for four nights.

Hey does anybody if we could get charged fees if we don%26#39;t show up for the hotel we booked? I guess they wouldn%26#39;t charge us since the room has already been paid through US airways vacations. But just wanted to make sure if anybody has done this...Thanks

*bump*

has anyone else tried this??

Ummm...if you have ';other hotel plans'; not through US Airways Vacations and you%26#39;re not comped, you%26#39;ll be paying for two hotel rooms. That%26#39;s not going to save you any money. Better to just book the whole trip through USAirways Vacations, with airfares what they are now you will save enough on the airfare to offset any discount you would have got through a promo code.

But IF you can get comped rooms and only book flights, this may save you money. That is my point and was hopefully a help to someone.

BuffBillsfan,

Good post.

We use USAV all the time out of Toronto for our short trips. We%26#39;ve booked the cheapest package (usually Fitz) JUST for the airfare and then stay at comped rooms or even booked separately at a different hotel. It has always worked out cheaper for us this way.

If you are flexible with your dates, USAV can be a great option.
