Pauline Frommer, from Frommer’s Guidebooks, advocates for transformative travel experiences that can have a lasting impact on individuals.
At the Travel & Adventure Show on February 17 and February 18, she will delve into the realm of life-enriching vacations that are budget-friendly.
“I delve into the fundamental philosophies that should form the basis of travel experiences, along with practical tips to make travel more efficient and cost-effective,” she explains.
Her approach extends beyond just budget travel; she emphasizes that luxury travel can also be attainable without exorbitant expenses. Through her guidance, she aims to educate travelers on the art of securing the best deals without overspending.
Launching in Phoenix, the Travel & Adventure Show presents a plethora of opportunities for attendees to explore and book trips for the upcoming year. With nearly 500 destinations, hotels, cruises, and tour operators in attendance, exclusive deals and promotional prices will be offered to assist participants in planning their travels wisely and affordably.
The Phoenix event will feature an array of knowledgeable speakers, including actor turned travel expert Andrew McCarthy, CBS News travel editor Peter Greenberg, and Patricia Schultz. Attendees can also create lasting memories with the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma’s green screen photo booth souvenirs.
John Golicz, the CEO of Unicomm LLC, the show’s organizer, expresses enthusiasm about introducing Phoenix travelers to the event for the first time. He aims to inspire and inform attendees about their 2024 travel plans while enabling them to make significant savings through the expertise shared by the talented speakers and vendors.
Amidst rising inflation affecting travelers, Frommer stresses the importance of cost-saving measures during travel. While hotel expenses are on the rise, airfare costs appear to be stabilizing or even decreasing. Hence, it is crucial now more than ever to be savvy with expenses while traveling.
Frommer highlights a comprehensive study conducted on airfare search engines, revealing that lesser-known platforms like Momondo consistently offer the lowest fares with a wide range of filtering options.
