We will probably be renting a car for our vacation this year. So, instead of trying to cram my hubby, my grandson, myself and all of our travel things into my little Toyota Camry Solara (read that convertible with very little trunk space), I’m looking for a mid-sized SUV to rent for a couple of weeks. Rent by the week.

Airlines Refund of $400 + $200 credit We flew to Florida in March to visit family. We had two options: wait a day to leave Florida or rent a car once we got to Philly and drive to our parked car at the Harrisburg airport. I was leaving money on the table before April and I’m glad I researched for opportunities.

For the past 8 years, I have owned and rented out a property in the Branson, MO area. As sort of an insider, I have seen ways that “in the know” folks can save on their vacation rental stays. In the past few years, many of them (like the airlines) have been gobbled up by a few of the big players.

Unlike cards tied to specific airline or hotel loyalty programs, these cards offer a great deal of flexibility. You can use their rewards on airlines, hotels and other expenses. Airline credit cards carry the name of a specific airline. General travel credit cards give you points that you can use to pay for travel.
