I got a good "hotel only" rate from a Tour Operator last November. I am currently checking out FunJet, AmericaWest and Worry Free Vactions. Does anyone know of any others?

PS. I think this web site is fantasic and a long loud shout out of thanks to all of you who maintain this gem of a site!!!!

spencie,

Most of the airlines offer tour packages. I've had luck with USAirways and American Express before I got the rooms at casino rate or free (hard to beat free) LOL
I don't know if American Express still has a tour office. For some reason I think it has closed, but worth a look anyway.
If I was retired, and had plenty of time, i might look into things like priceline. But I need definate flying times and lately I want a decent airline schedule.
Don't forget about Phil's LA times room rates posted by Beth every week. Some of those are great.
I'm guessing Tour operators are having a tough time since 9/11

Thanks for the kind words about our site, but it's the people that share information and ask questions that help make it what it is.
