Where to go for Vacation? July 2-6

[defixated]

site59.com is worth a look. They sell as air + hotel or + car or both packages. It's the same engine as lastminutedeals.com or Travelocity's last minute packages. Some extra $ off, maybe google for more.

The air/rental car packages are generally a better deal (often the site59 + car is < best airfare elsewhere). Also check betterbidding.com/biddingfortravel.com for hotel rooms. You should be able to get a 4* hotel in Chicago, StL or SF for <$100. Boston can be a bit more, and priceline isn't so good for Vegas.

I've been to all five cities, lived in two. Usually I suggest going someplace new. SF, btw, has a much lower key July 4th than the others. Chicago summer is more or less built around the 4th/Taste of Chicago, so it's a good bet if you like crowds and meat.

Enjoy.

Thanks!!! Oh, also, if anyone knows where I can find the best last-minute deals for airfare for 2 and hotel (and if possible, rental car), let me know!

www.lastminute.com seems to have decent deals the couple of times I looked at it.

phb,

Having returned to STL after a several-year absence recently, they've done up the place. Downtown actually has a life now, and you've got the big casino situation as well (NOT the riverboats downtown): there's the big Harrah's joint on the river away from the city somewhere with a good pokerroom. Is it hot as [censored] there yet?

But screw all that, you should go to New Orleans.
