Most of us think it would be great to suddenly decide to take a vacation and just be able to take off. Before now, that was almost unthinkable due to the sky-high prices of last-minute plane tickets. But fortunately, it's now possible to book a vacation on short notice and still get a terrific deal. We have put together some suggestions that you can use to help you arrange last minute vacations at reasonable prices:

1. The Internet is your friend when it comes to finding sources that list inexpensive vacations which can be booked late. Whether your chosen destination is the Caribbean, Hawaii, Europe, or another exotic location, you will find discount travel websites online, that provide vacation packages at discount prices. You can get an excellent price at the last minute from many of these discount travel web sites. When visiting one of these discount travel websites, you can compare prices and availability of vacation deals to a number of destinations. If you are trying to enjoy a spur of the minute trip that doesn't break the bank, these websites have a wealth of information that will be quite useful to you. It's possible to save up to 30% or more when you book your vacation on these sites rather than trying to make all the travel arrangements yourself.

2. Another way you can save money booking at the last minute is to book your vacation during the low season. You can often save 10% or more traveling during the low season than during the high season for the same vacation package. Have a hankering to visit Paris, London, Spain, Athens, Barcelona, or Frankfurt? You can with the excellent European packages that are available. You can expect to find the best bargains to Mexico and Hawaii during their off-season, which is the summer, and for European vacation deals, the winter will prove the time for travel discounts.

3. You can save money at the last minute if you book a vacation at a destination not long after a hurricane. It may sound odd, but the tourism industry is looking to boost the economy so they will offer special deals to get people to vacation. Think of it this way: you'll be aiding the local economy as well as taking an inexpensive vacation.

4. Taking a vacation with a group of friends can be a terrific way to have a great time and save money. This allows you to evenly divide the costs associated with your travel. Let Internet discount travel sites help you pin down the most inexpensive locales to visit when you're ready to take your trip.

5. Another technique for conserving money when booking your vacation, is to fly off-peak season, days, and hours. The most inexpensive time to fly is typically during the middle of the week. Along that same line, it's cheaper to fly on the off-season. Instead of traveling during the first week of April, for example, it makes better sense and will cost less to take your trip towards the end of March.
