Planning for a spring break vacation can seem like a far-off task for your future self to deal with, but, the truth is, the sooner you plan, the more seamless your experience will be. Spring break tends to be that one time a year when even your most thrifty friends break out their wallets and join the fun, and a lot of other travelers are about to do the same. Early birds get better flight times, accommodation options and prices, depending on how touristy the destination.
Check your work and school schedules and get planning.
Most employers have a set holiday schedule for the year, so employees know exactly if and when they have a holiday break. If you do have one built in to your schedule, plan around your days off and enjoy a long weekend trip over Easter. This might mean a closer locale to spring break in, but that will also mean more money saved and less hassle for you.
For students looking to get away during your week off, check out the exact dates for your university. Once you and your group have all the dates worked out, you can easily settle on a halfway point to meet up and vacation. Just remember, everyone is vacationing at the same time, so, if there is somewhere specific you would love to go, book early. Prices will only rise later and become more difficult to book.
If you need a longer vacation, use some paid time off from work and link up with friends doing the same for a full week away. You’ll have a fun trip to look forward to and plenty of time to save up and plan all the details.

Enjoy the Open Road on Your Terms
For most of us, time in the car is “me time.” You can listen to that podcast you’re captivated by, blast that pop song and sing along at the top of your lungs or listen to the next chapter in that biography e-book you’re almost finished. A road trip only amplifies those opportunities. So, next time you’re traveling by road, take the wheel and take control. Opt for a rental car on your next vacation, rather than a rideshare, taxi or public transportation, and enjoy the open road on your own terms.
