Several sites on the Internet are dedicated to offering travel deals to customers. Before you go to the airline websites, check out Orbitz, Travelocity, Priceline, and Expedia. These sites offer deals on airfare, hotel accommodations, and rental cars. When you decide on the dates for travel, plug them into the search parameters on each website to see what they have to make the trip less of a financial drain.

At Priceline.com, folks looking for good prices on their travel can bid on fares. Let them know what you are looking for and how much you are willing to pay. Continue to check back to the site for deals or have them email you when something comes up in your price range.

In addition to Priceline.com, shoppers can look for airfare and hotel deals at travel auctions. Travel actions allow customers to save money by outbidding other shoppers. You can check the listings for airfare and hotel packages, deals on rental cars, timeshares, B &B’s, and other trip particulars. You can come across deals from the simple to the very unique.

Each site has their rules about membership and bidding, so read the fine print. Some, like Luxury Link are free to join, but you must be a member in order to bid on travel deals. People that want a premium luxury accommodations and airfare for less can find it here.

There is more than one type of auction. In single auctions, the highest bidder is the one that wins the deal or whatever you are bidding for. Then there are Best Shot auctions. Here, more than one of the same item is up for bid. The winners are those that come in with the highest bid. Then each bidder that wins pays the lowest of the winning bids.

A Dutch auction is similar to the Best Shot auction. When more than one of the same item is up for bid, the two highest winners get the items but only pay the lowest price of the day for that item. This means that the winner who bid the lowest price sets the price for both winners.

Travel auctions are worth looking into but be careful. If the deal sounds or looks to good to be true on paper, it probably is. There are many unscrupulous people out there who want your money. Read the fine print so you don’t’ get taken for a ride by a cheat.

Hotels on the islands can be pretty expensive. If price is not the object but amenities, here are some suggestions for hotels to check out. On the island of Maui, there is the Grand Wailea hotel. This establishment is not for people without deep pockets. The prices start at $575 per night and can run as high as $3,200. For a modest hotel with great service, go to the Mana Kai hotel or the Napili Surf. The former runs around $133 per night, while the latter offers rooms for $94 a night.

Prices on Kauai are in the same range and higher for premium accommodations. The Princeville Resort will serve you with style for a mere $565 to $5,500. The Hyatt is a bit more reasonable with rooms starting at $430. For families, the Kaua’i Palms Hotel has rooms for $65 a night. Perfect for those who don’t want to break the bank with their hotel bill.

The Big Island has some great choices for those travelers. Choose from the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel with prices starting at $306 a night. There is a private beach as a perk of your stay. The Royal Kona Resort offers rooms near the shopping district for $85 a night. To save money, vacationers can always book a hotel room on one Hawaiian Island and island hop for day trips.

These three holidays are the official Hawaii holidays, which means banks and government agencies are usually closed on these days.

• Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole Day – This is celebrated on March 26th with a parade on Oahu, luaus, and canoe races around the state. It’s also known as “Kuhio Day”. This holiday is in honor of Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole’s birthday and was established in 1949. Who is Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole? Born in 1871, he’s most commonly known for convincing congress to appoint public land for native Hawaiian families. His parents were High Chief David Kahalepouli and Princess Kinoki Kekaulike.

• Admissions Day – This holiday comes around on the 3rd Friday in August and is also called “Statehood Day”. However, you won’t hear locals call it that very often. Admissions Day celebrates Hawaii finally being officially recognized as a U.S. state in 1959 (The 50th state). Hawaii had failed to be recognized many times over the previous fifty years, before it finally happened.

• King Kamehameha I Day – This holiday happens every year on June 11th, and is celebrated by parades, music festivals, hula, and the late king’s statue being adorned with flower leis. Most people call this holiday Kamehameha Day, and it’s the only official holiday still celebrated that was established by royalty. In 1871, King Kamehameha V established this holiday to show respect and honor for his great grandfather. King Kamehameha, born on the Big Island, was proficiently trained in the art of battle and was brought up by foster parents. He was the first unified rule of the islands, which is what he’s remembered most for.

Unofficial Hawaii Holidays

Hawaii has a diverse population, so there are many other holidays that are celebrated, but not official holidays. These holidays include, but aren’t limited to Boy’s Day, May Day, Chinese New Year, and Girl’s Day.

• May Day – Celebrated in the first week of May, this holiday is also called “Lei Day”. It’s in honor of the flower lei and began in 1928. During May Day flower leis are worn and there are usually parades, festivities, and programs that are in honor of the holiday.

• Boy’s Day – This is a very old Japanese holiday that is celebrated on May 5th. Carp kites are displayed on bamboo poles outside the home. One is hung for each boy in the household to show power and strength, with the belief it will bring the boys courage and competence. Although this is a Japanese holiday, Hawaii children enjoy celebrating with face painting, making carp kites and dining on Japanese food.

• Girl’s Day – This is another Japanese holiday that is celebrated in Hawaii on March 3rd. This holiday envelopes beauty, peace, and feminism; wishing the young girls marriage and happiness with displays of dolls. Sweet, pounded rice cakes called mocha are often eaten during this time. Other celebrations include parades, dancing, and wearing kimonos.

• Chinese New Year – Some time between January and February this Chinese holiday is celebrated in Hawaii. It’s celebrated by parades, tea ceremonies, and firecrackers. The Narcissus Festival Pageant is also a highlight. The biggest festivity during the Chinese New Year is the Lion Dance performed to the music of drum beats, wearing exotic costumes. The dancers (or lions) crouch and are given money for prosperity and luck – and to keep evil spirits away.
