Travelocity Offers up to $600 in Savings off of Select Vacation Packages and Waives Flight Booking Fees

SOUTHLAKE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As part of its summer-long invitation to come see the world, Travelocity today launches its “Summer to the Rescue” sale that offers consumers up to $600 in savings off select vacation packages, at savings of up to 33 percent. Travelocity also announced it is continuing to offer Travelocity PriceGuardian^SM that offers customers a refund if another consumer books the same vacation package for less on Travelocity.

“We know that the best values and the highest demand in travel today are in vacation packages,” said Victoria Treyger, chief marketing officer, Travelocity North America. “That is why we have increased the savings across hundreds of destinations and will continue to offer Travelocity PriceGuardian on vacation packages.”

Typically, travelers save on average $315 when they book the flight, hotel, car rental and activities together versus separately. And with Travelocity PriceGuardian, when a customer buys a vacation package with Travelocity and another Travelocity customer later books the same vacation package at a lower price before the trip, Travelocity will automatically refund the difference to the customer, from $10 up to $500.

The savings do not stop there, however. In addition to continuing to offer Travelocity PriceGuardian on vacation packages, Travelocity will also continue to waive Travelocity booking fees on flights.*
