Jeanette Pavini: Well people are starting to travel again and prices rise as seats fill up. Timing can be almost everything when it comes to saving big on holiday travel. Now the most crowded holiday travel days of the day before and the day after the actual holiday. So if you can schedule your flight two day before or after, you’ll usually find a better deal.

Sign up for holiday travel alerts through email or your phone and look for hotels with free parking and meals plus make sure you understand the airline’s luggage rules to avoid checked baggage fees.
