First of all, it’s never too early to book your flight. If and when you see a sweet deal pop up, take advantage of it! Waiting around for a better deal could leave you without a flight home. Planners are the best, guys. Seriously.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re trying to save some money, consider traveling on Thanksgiving. We know, this may not sound ideal at first, but think about it. Everyone is trying to get home the day before Thanksgiving, so that\u2019s when airports are the busiest, flight prices are up, and delays are almost inevitable. If you wait until Thanksgiving morning to travel, you could save some big bucks (and some stress along the way, too).<\/p>\n
On the way back, try to avoid Sunday. Instead, try to head out early on Saturday, or leave on Monday, if possible. If you have to travel the day before Thanksgiving (the more likely case) and on Sunday, just be sure to arrive at the airport early. Nothing\u2019s worse than missing your flight!<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve told you this before<\/a>, but we cannot stress it enough\u2014less is more. What\u2019s worse than lugging a big bag around? Losing it. With so many people traveling at once, it’s fairly easy to fall victim to lost luggage this time of year. Don’t let this happen to you! Since it\u2019s likely you’ll only away for the long weekend, just bring a carry-on! You\u2019ll be with family\u2014wear the same outfit twice. No one will judge you.<\/p>\nIf you\u2019re going away for a longer period of time, just be sure to have a luggage tag on your checked bag. This way, if you bag does get lost, they\u2019ll be able to contact you right away.<\/p>\n

Yes, there\u2019s no place like home, but it\u2019s really about who you\u2019re with, not where you are\u2014right? Why not plan a trip somewhere new for the weekend?
