The Get Away
Doesn’t matter if you’re taking a long trip someplace exotic or merely crossing your state border for a weekend getaway—the feeling of going somewhere is what it’s all about. As host to Disney World, Miami’s South Beach, and the Keys, Florida is a hot vacation spot all year round. If you’re looking to have fun in the sun, save 10% off your stay at the Beacon Hotel South Beach when you book in advance. If you’re a cold-weather person, the only downside to spring’s approach is the end of ski season! Gather up the family and hit the slopes one last time at Keystone in Denver, Colorado where kids ski free when you book through Southwest Airlines Vacations. Every now and then we all need a girls or guys only weekend getaway to blow off some steam! What better place to party till the sun comes up than the bright lights of the Las Vegas strip in Nevada?
