Special July fares for RTW tickets

We are now officially halfway through 2009 (don’t ask where the year went – we’re still trying to figure that out ourselves), which also means we’re smack dab in the middle of summer in the northern hemisphere. This being the time when, traditionally, everyone and their brother goes on vacation, it stands to reason that we shouldn’t be surprised by a slight rise in the cost of things like airline tickets or cruises. But we can’t help it, we’re a little surprised.

Why? Because for months we’ve been seeing deals that are so good we thought they couldn’t be topped – and then they were topped a few days later. This flagging economy has been great for travel deal hunters.

Now, while we’re not quite ready to call the season on these fabulous travel deals over, we have been seeing prices creep back up a bit – most likely due to the demand for summer travel rather than any rebound in the economy (because that would be too much to hope for, right?). In other words, if you haven’t already snagged a stellar deal for a quick summer trip, you might want to hang on a moment and see if the prices drop again in a month or so.

But unlike the prices on simple round-trip tickets, the prices on multi-stop tickets never really dropped as much. That may sound like a bummer, but it also means that they won’t be shooting back up again, either. Overall, these tickets for long-term trips are just more stable price-wise, since they almost always require more flexibility and aren’t as susceptible to short-term price fluctuations.

Yes, that’s just one more good reason to take a RTW trip.

These are the July RTW ticket deals – these prices are good through July 31, 2009.

Miami – Rio de Janeiro – Buenos Aires – Santiago – Lima – Bogota – Miami from US$12999 (plus taxes)

San Francisco – Hong Kong – Bangkok – Singapore – Bali (Denpasar) – Sydney – San Francisco – Honolulu from US$1999 (plus taxes)

New York – Beijing – Hong Kong – Singapore – Bangkok – Bombay / Mumbai – Nairobi – Cairo – Athens – Rome – Copenhagen – Berlin – London – New York from US$2499 (plus taxes)

And just in case none of those itineraries appeals to you, you can create a totally customized trip from scratch with the BootsnAll RTW travel planner. It’s interactive and very fun, especially as it’s it’s laid out on a map and will give you a visual idea of all the places you’ll be going on your trip. Have fun planning!
