i have plans to take a couple trips in the next year or so. in my experience it is much easier and cheaper to get a package through an agent, than trying to find the deals on hotel, activities, and flights all by myself.
i was hoping someone would have a family member who would do this.
the trip that i could use an agent for sure right now would be to big sky montana for skiing.
flights right now are looking to be 500+, and then tack on what the resort charges for condo stay and lift tix…
my friends and i used an agent to get us hooked up with ski trips before. they bundle us into a college trip plan, similar to what UB does with thei shcussmeisters. the first time i went to whistler it was 765.00 for 6 days 5 nights stay in a condo, 4 days lift passes, airfare, and bus from vancouver.
EDIT and yeah i have AAA, i always forget, i will have to give them a call
Look online. I booked my honeymoon to Fiji through South Seas Adventures, which is just some office in Colorado that specializes in Fiji trips. Never met anyone face to face.
Look online for a place that specializes in skiing in Montana, maybe find a message board where you could find some personal recommendations?
