Tell ‘em Scott sent you…

**IMPORTANT NOTE: My friend Scott Habberstad at  Alaska Airlines sent me a note correcting some important omissions. Specifically, that the fare was good Fri/Sat/Sun, that is is valid from other Alaska communities aside from Anchorage and that it’s valid through Sept. 30. So, when you call USTravel and say “Scott sent me”, it really is both Scott H. and Scott M. HAHA!

Kelly Jo and I sat down the other day at USTravel and started drilling down on some of the good deals now available for travelers. There’s a little bit of hunt-n-peck going on, since prices are high. Deals still are available–but you have to dig for them. That’s what Kelly Jo and the professionals at USTravel throughout the state are are trained for–take advantage of their expertise.

First–a cruise moment. I really like this sailing on the Carnival Splendor from L.A. down the coast of Mexico. Why? Silly–it’s sailing on my BIRTHDAY: Jan. 24, 2010. This seven-night sailing features port calls in Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas. Inside staterooms are as low as $379 per person, double. Upgrade to an oceanview outside stateroom for just $110 more per person ($489 per person). Taxes are additional. When you call Kelly Jo (907-561-2434), mention this number: CID67345 .

Okay: air fares. As you know, they are not all created equal. Not even close. The prices I quote are “all-in” including taxes and fees.
