We are staying at the Park Plaza Hotel and wish to walk a lot, but we don't have a real fix on how many minutes it would take to walk from our hotel area over to the Pier 4 area where some of the seafood waterfront spots to eat are. Can you give us an estimate? Thanks so much.
Susan's reply: Boston's Park Plaza Hotel is in a wonderfully central location, best western hotels palm springs so you can easily walk over to the South Boston Waterfront neighborhood where Pier 4 and lots of seafood restaurants are located.
best western hotels palm springs As for how long the walk will take...I'm going to hedge a little. I walk fairly fast and could probably cover the distance in 10-12 minutes (allowing time for traffic lights) .... but the reality is that there are lots of interesting things to see along the way. Realistically, you should probably best western hotels palm springs count on 15-25 minutes, or even longer, depending on how many things you look at or photograph along the way.
You can take several routes to get there from your hotel. Going, I'd probably walk up to Boylston St (which borders the Public Garden and Boston Common), and walk east. This takes you along the edge of the Theatre District - lots of interesting side streets to explore!
Boylston best western hotels palm springs turns into Essex, which goes through Chinatown - lots to explore here as well! (as well as some tasty seafood options - I'm addicted to the shrimp dumplings at Windsor Dim Sum - details on my Dim Sum page ). At the end of Essex, best western hotels palm springs go through the Chinatown Gate and turn left - you'll be on the Rose Kennedy Greenway. The Chinatown section is one of my favorites.
best western hotels palm springs Go past the InterContinental (this is on Griffin's Wharf where the Boston Tea Party took place - very nice free observation deck here as well) and continue heading up the Greenway until you see James Hook Lobsters (great place for a lobster roll, and only about $12 - if the weather is nice, sit on a bench and enjoy - excellent chowder too - you can find details on my Cheap Eats page).
Barking Crab is right there - nice place to kick back with a steamed best western hotels palm springs lobster and a pitcher of beer - and Daily Catch is also nearby - seafood with a Sicilian twist (more details about both on Boston Seafood Restaurants page).
Going back to the Park Plaza, I'd probably cross back over the Moakley Footbridge and turn right when I got to the Greenway. Walk north for a bit on the Greenway to see some of the harbor area, and then cut back over toward best western hotels palm springs the city.
Learn about festivals, holiday celebrations, parades, concerts, shows, kids activities, free movies, sports, and other fun things to do each month in Boston - plus where to find discounts, deals, best western hotels palm springs and half-price tickets.
Find all the fun ways to see Boston - the Freedom Trail (with or without costumed guides), movie tours, Duck Boat tours, Boston Harbor cruises, daytrips best western hotels palm springs to Concord, Salem, and Plimouth Plantation - and much more!

Let s begin by pointing out that the airlines know a lot about our buying habits. For example, accor

Finding a good deal on an International airfare can be a zoo.  Make no mistake about it, the airlines are experts at extracting the greatest amount of money from each passenger.  This article by Rick Seaney, CEO of farecompare.com, will shed some light or the mysteries of finding good airfare deals.
And that s no surprise. Clearly, we are a deal-oriented society. I know this firsthand. As a newlywed, I temporarily lost my mind and agreed to accompany my bride to my first-ever Semi-Annual Sale at Nordstrom s. My first and last. But after the shock of watching elbows fly like a Stanley Cup playoff game wore off, I learned something: broadway tickets discount There is an art to finding a deal (no Trumpian pun intended).
Let s begin by pointing out that the airlines know a lot about our buying habits. broadway tickets discount For example, according to travel industry statistics, they know we shop at four to six Web sites before we actually make our airline ticket purchase. broadway tickets discount They also know we aren t anywhere near as loyal to airlines as we used to be. The reason is a simple, two-part equation:
But I can help you sort fact from fiction. First of all, I have the luxury of having one of the world s largest databases of current and historical airfares at my fingertips. And that means, after reviewing millions of airfares that can (and do) change daily, and after writing software programs to slice and dice this information, broadway tickets discount I am uniquely qualified to answer the question: When is the best time to buy a cheap airline ticket?
broadway tickets discount Airlines, in general, broadway tickets discount only set aside about 10 percent (or less) of their seats for the very cheapest prices. Most flights broadway tickets discount have about eight price points, or levels of pricing: four different prices for leisure travelers and four different prices for business travelers (who purchase inside the 14-days-before-departure rule).
How firm is that 10 percent? Well, just so you know, I have spent many hours trying to confirm what several airline people broadway tickets discount have told me, and that is: If an airline promotes an airfare in the media, it must sell at least 10 percent of the seats at that fare. Sorry, but I have yet to find this rule written down, anywhere.
Planes are packed these days, so the last-minute deals that helped airlines fill up their planes are no longer broadway tickets discount necessary. You may come across one from time to time, but do not count on it. Instead, start shopping (not buying) early; typically, airlines start actively managing their cheapest seats about four months before departure. Look for trends, and use technology to help you see when your destination normally has the cheapest airfare available.
broadway tickets discount Don t buy too early; tickets purchased before this four month window will generally be priced at a midtier level. An exception: shopping for busy holiday times (Thanksgiving, Christmas); due to current price hikes and ever-increasing broadway tickets discount fuel surcharges, you may want to purchase these tickets earlier broadway tickets discount than usual, to lock in the price.
Bottom line: Airfare sales tend to occur early in the week. Not always, but usually. And increases tend to occur at the end of the week. Same caveat. Now, it is true that the busiest shopping day of the week for airfare is Tuesday, but there is no evidence that Tuesday is the cheapest day to buy. First of all, domestic airfares can and do change three times a day (on weekdays) and once a day on weekends. All the more reason broadway tickets discount that everyone should sign up for e-mail alerts that will follow these price changes for you, and let you know when good deals are available.
Unfortunately, nobody broadway tickets discount can tell you that. It simply broadway tickets discount cannot be done. But if you keep in mind my insider tips and know how to use the best available technological tools, you can get a good deal. No, you may not always get the best deal; but you may get the second or third cheapest airfare and guess what you ll still be flying for less than most of the others on your plane.
Oh, and by the way, about my brutal Nordstrom s experience? There was an upside to it: I had my wife promise me that if I was ever lost at sea, she would insist broadway tickets discount the Coast Guard use the same grid search pattern she developed to scope out bargains in the store that day.

Summer's just around the corner, and if you haven't made your travel plans yet, now's the time. Our guide to finding cheap airfare will have you whistling all the way to Peru—and saving you money all year-round.
peppermill hotel reno Get ready to arm yourself with your web browser and a handful of the best travel sites . In this guide, I'll lay out the basics of buying airline tickets, highlight some fancy tools to help you find the right time to buy, help you set up a few passive tools for making the best deals come to your doorstep, peppermill hotel reno and in general highlight how I regularly go about finding great deals on airfare. (I fly roughly once a month, and using these strategies have secured tickets so inexpensive all I had to do was pay the tax on what the price of the ticket peppermill hotel reno would have been.)
It's impossible to know what a deal is if you don't know the flight market. Before you get started hunting, you should have an idea of what places you are interested in traveling to, and a general time frame in which you are interested peppermill hotel reno in doing it in. Search engines like Bing Travel and Kayak offer some handy tools, which we'll cover in a bit, for scoping this information out. While it may seem strange that some routes are more expensive than others, keep in mind prices are often set depending on how competitive a route is.
These basic travel peppermill hotel reno tips for cheap airfare are pretty common, but they're also true and bear repeating. Consider alternate dates and regional peppermill hotel reno airports , travel during peppermill hotel reno off-peak season, and plan ahead as soon as you can (with a two weeks' minimum when you can). Prices rise during vacation times, such as the summer and the holiday season. Traveling in off-peak months like January and October yields peppermill hotel reno better fares. If you're planning a trip in the summer, aim for the early or late summer months instead of the middle of July.
Using these fundamental tips and a promo code from coupon site RetailMeNot (don't forget to check coupon sites as an easy way to save money!), I was able, for example, to book a roundtrip fare from Los Angeles to Mexico City in late January for $167 including tax. On average, fares for this route can easily range from $300-350. peppermill hotel reno That's nearly 50 percent in savings.
Earlier, we mentioned Bing Travel as a good way to gather information. Bing offers a handy graph for figuring out the average price for a route, when to travel and for how long. The web site also allows you to compare up to five routes at the same time, and shows if fares are rising or dropping so you can easily make a decision peppermill hotel reno on when to buy.
Kayak's Buzz feature peppermill hotel reno offers something similar. (If you have an iPhone, try out Kayak's free iPhone app —its Buzz feature peppermill hotel reno is strangely even better than the web-based version.) Buzz will let you check the average best prices compared to the absolute best prices for the next few months for specific routes, and help you pinpoint where exactly the best bang for your buck is.
It may not always be friendly to your uncluttered peppermill hotel reno inbox, but a good source of deals comes straight from the companies themselves, and sometimes the best deals can be found here. Using a good organizational system like personalized filters in Gmail or a separate email inbox will keep emails from cluttering up your inbox. peppermill hotel reno Link it to a good email notification tool like previously mentioned Scott's Gmail Alert , and you'll get instant notification of promotions and price changes. It's also worth signing up for sites that offer fare alerts, such as Kayak and Travelocity .
Also, remember: Not every plane gets filled out to capacity, and airlines often offer last-minute fares at reduced prices to sell these unsold seats. For example, Continental and American Airlines send out weekly last-minute reduced-fare emails. Often, but not always, these routes originate from the airline's main hubs, so it'd be worth checking in to see which airline is based nearest you.
Sometimes it pays to plot your route manually—like if you have a layover or if it's cheaper to fly out of certain airports. While it's easy to let a search engine like Kayak do all the work for you, you can save hundreds of dollars doing it yourself. A friend was interested peppermill hotel reno in flying to Melbourne, Australia (MEL) from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) later this September. He ran a search and came up with $1,271 for his flight with a stop in Los Angeles (LAX). A flight to Melbourne from Los Angeles, on the other hand, came up for $677. For the month of September, a flight from Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles is averaging around $250-350. If he books it manually and pays the high-end $350 in addition to the $677 flight to Melbourne, the total cost for the trip comes out to $1,027—over $200 less than if he went through a search engine.
If you use this method, it's extremely important that you leave enough time between flights for an adequate layover. There are a few risks with this method in not making your connecting flight, but if you can plan it correctly and carefully, you can save a lot of money.
Another good option is to consider low-cost budget carriers, like JetBlue or Mexican airline Volaris. While budget carriers sometimes charge extra for things like food, with so many US airlines cost-cutting and ramping up fees (with arguable service), you're not really missing out on anything. (It's worth it to point out that some discount airlines will start to charge for things that aren't common practice soon, like for carry-on baggage on Spirit Airlines, and to use the restroom on Ryanair.) Search engines like Kayak or Sidestep, while a good resource for the domestic market, can miss out on discount airlines abroad. Community-contributed travel guide Wikitravel has a good article that covers most major budget airlines in the world.
The key is to know these discount airlines and their routes well. Discount Malaysian-based airline AirAsia gives out free seats biannually, while discount European airlines RyanAir and EasyJet have their biggest sales during the off-peak season. peppermill hotel reno Airline emails still remain a good source for knowing when a sale occurs. I've grabbed peppermill hotel reno a one-way ticket from Los Angeles to Guadalajara, Mexico for $1 plus tax on Mexican discount airline Volaris. (I actually saw it on Twitter first—we'll go more in-depth on utilizing Twitter later.) Some deals may be one-way only, but the sheer discount of the one-way may still undercut the cost of a normal roundtrip fare significantly.
Last year using a combination of email alerts and buying nearly a year in advance, I booked peppermill hotel reno Beijing, China (with one stop) → Bangkok, Thailand → Penang, Malaysia → Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia → London, peppermill hotel reno UK on AirAsia for $252 including tax. If I was to buy those same exact dates on the same airline today, it would cost me $516. That same multi-destination route plugged into Sidestep yields $1,741 for the cheapest fare.
Twitter is an easy, efficient way to keep track of current airline promotions. Not only do you often receive notice before the marketing email lands in your inbox, but some companies use Twitter to give exclusive discounts. JetBlue, for instance, offers limited fares every Tuesday at @jetbluecheeps . As an example, they offered a $10 one-way flight to New York (JFK) from Boston (BOS) not too long ago. After all, what's a better time for last-minute getaways than during the summer?
The days of all-inclusive service on airline travel has long passed, so picking the right airline peppermill hotel reno is crucial. peppermill hotel reno Want to check in that bag? Want more legroom? That snack on United is going to cost you… even on an international flight. If you have particular needs, you'll need to check with your airline ahead of time, before you easily spend an extra $50 checking in a bag for a roundtrip trip. Sidestep has a decent chart of current airline fees and we covered this topic a few months ago . The list isn't all-inclusive nor the most current, peppermill hotel reno but it's a good starting peppermill hotel reno point. Keep in mind that Delta and United also recently extended their $10-$30 holiday surcharges to the 2010 holiday season as well. To avoid booking fees, always book directly peppermill hotel reno with the airline.
International travelers: when purchasing peppermill hotel reno a fare from an airline based abroad, stick to a credit card that doesn't charge a foreign currency conversion fee, even if the price is quoted in dollars. Some fares bought online can and sometimes will be processed in the originating currency. In some instances, British Airways peppermill hotel reno and Singapore Airlines customers later found a surprise foreign currency conversion fee from their bank. It's not so bad—unless it's 3 percent peppermill hotel reno of two $850 tickets. Capital peppermill hotel reno One is often known as the traveler's credit card because they are one of the few major banks left that does not charge any fees, although claims have been made they make it up with a slightly less favorable foreign currency rate.
Even after you've booked your ticket, don't think your work is done. Some airlines will refund or credit you the difference if the price drops. Flight-monitoring site Yapta keeps an eye on price drops and alerts peppermill hotel reno you if the price falls below the price you bought it for so you can contact the airline peppermill hotel reno to get a refund. Currently Yapta only tracks twelve US airlines . Some airlines may charge a rebooking fee, so Yapta only notifies you if the price drop is greater than the fee for that particular airline.
