After a rush of travel deals for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the travel industry is now turning its eyes to Travel Deal Tuesday. A relative newcomer to the Cyber Week deal season, Travel Deal Tuesday could be the perfect opportunity to snag a cheap flight for your future vacation.
With travel rebounding — especially following a massive Thanksgiving holiday travel period?— the industry is looking to capitalize on the pent-up demand. As the world begins to open back up, now may be the time to start planning your next vacation for 2022 or beyond. (Be sure to note, however, that restrictions surrounding Covid-19 are constantly changing. We recommend buying flights with flexible booking options in case your plans change.)
According to travel-booking company Hopper, which predicts flight price trends and more, Travel Deal Tuesday is expected to see more than double the deals of Black Friday and Cyber Monday combined.
Here’s a look at some of the sales and offers we’re seeing for Travel Deal Tuesday, noting that some of the deals are an extension of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. Keep in mind that some of the Travel Deal Tuesday flight deals are exclusive to Hopper, meaning you’ll need to book through the online travel agent in order to take advantage of the sales.
