Planning a post-pandemic vacation? This travel year is unique. Inflation, reduced airline capacities, and a tight rental car market are increasing prices.

Popular Mediterranean spots like Greece, Spain, and Cyprus are more expensive. Still, many of us will spend more on accommodation and even pricier seats for short-haul flights. The price gaps aren’t as wide. Last-minute deals are less appealing. Cheaper hotel rates might tempt you, but limited flight options often mean extra layovers.

Planning a post-pandemic vacation? Think ahead. I recently returned from a holiday and anticipate more enjoyable trips in the future. After 14 years of school vacation travel, we planned differently this time. In winter, we found a new hotel on Instagram eager for guests. In the summer, we picked a destination less popular with European tourists but still within Gran Canaria’s flight range. The heat was intense, but the trip was worth it. I even fulfilled a long-held dream of visiting Cairo.

In this new travel era, planning is crucial. Explore less-travelled destinations, book early, and look for new hotels for the most value. With strategic planning, your next adventure can be both memorable and affordable. Don’t let rising prices deter you; your bucket-list adventure awaits!
