Top 5 Ways to Plan for Spring Break
Spring break is a much needed chance to get away from all the stresses of school homework and work deadlines and spend some quality time with your family or friends. Sometimes it's just the getaway you need after the hustle and bustle of the holidays. Although spring break is commonly associated with time off for students, many travelers book vacation plans during the same time for a spring break of their own. Typically, spring break around the U.S. falls between the months of March and April and people are eager for a trip to recover from the cold winter as spring emerges and they await summer. Depending on if you are subject to a fixed academic calendar week off or if you are flexible to choose your springtime trip, there are many options for you — especially by following our top five ways to plan ahead for a more enjoyable spring break vacation experience.
Consult the calendar and plan your vacation early.
Look at the Calendar and Start Planning Months Ahead
Planning for travel, especially in any peak-season for vacations, is especially important to start early! Finding time to sync calendars with family and friends can take time. If you know you definitely want to travel, a four-to-six-month window for planning and booking is recommended. Getting the school calendar as soon as possible will give you a head start. If you must coordinate your work vacation time with others on your team, it is a good idea to put your time off request in writing early to secure that time and to avoid the boss having to say "sorry"! A group chat or document where ideas for destinations can be exchanged helps others get organized and committed to the plan. Start by sharing the Costco Travel vacation packages website, a geat place to start for destination ideas.
Cruise vacations offer excellent value with little stress.
Choose Your Destination Early - Resort, Cruise or Road Trip
Booking your spring break vacation in advance has its advantages, mostly that you will get early selection of room, cabin or car choices, as well as allowing time to ensure you are all booked on the same flights and have a better choice of seats. Peace of mind is another benefit when you know you have placed a deposit payment on your trip and you can relax. If you are using airline miles, you will have the best chance of utilizing them when booking early. Most vacation and cruise packages offer airfare (for an additional fee) from major gateways, and early booking is key to not starting out the trip apart and frustrated. Planning early will give you time to decide and find what kind of vacation you want: active, relaxing, beach resort, pleasure cruise or road trip. You can't go wrong when making memories together!

Find Great Values That Fit Your Budget
Search Costco Travel's website 24/7 and with a few clicks you can find a multitude of destinations based on your specific travel dates and parameters. Look for Limited-Time Deals, vacation packages or cruises with exclusive extra amenities included (such as waived resort fee, complimentary parking or resort/shipboard credit, for example).
Just like in the warehouse, Travel has Kirkland Signature™ or Buyer's Choice labeled deals where you get elevated perks on specific dates of travel. Look for deals that may include a Digital Costco Shop Card — a value-added member benefit — where you get digital credit to spend at your local Costco warehouse when you return from your travels!
Pools are a popular feature at many all-inclusive resorts.
Consider an All-Inclusive, Cruise or Condo with a Kitchen
All-Inclusive Resorts provide less to coordinate; accommodations, meals and most drinks are included. You pay upfront for your stay and you check out without these extra expenses. Cruises include most meals as well. When the family is hungry they can go back for more food as many times as they like, as there is always a dining venue open around the ship. This is great for families with kids that may get hungry and snack more often as it is very convenient with a lot of variety. Condominium stays are popular, in some markets, that include a kitchen where you can keep meals simplified, convenient and avoid possible wait times and table service.

Consider alternate airports in order to find the best selection of flights and pricing.
Be Open to Other Airport Choices
If you find airfare to be more expensive during peak travel times, consider looking for more options by checking nearby airports either from where you live or your destination. For example, if your vacation is in Fort Lauderdale, you can check airfare to nearby airports such as Miami or West Palm Beach and get a car. Rental cars may have better availability in less popular airports as well.
