MORE INFO TO COME!!
Travel Planning Suggestions:

  • Check Google Flights for airfare (Just Google "Flights")
  • Check https://www.skyscanner.com/ as well to find cheapest.
  • Don't buy airfare until 8-12 weeks in advance!
    (I promise you will get them cheaper if you wait)
  • Check airfare prices for two months from now, and that is likely what you can expect to
    pay when you are two months away from our trip
  • Check airfare for San Diego, LAX, Orange County, and Palm Springs airports. - All are
    within an hour-hour and a half from Oceanside or Temecula
  • Rental Car prices don't change much, so it doesn't really matter how soon or how late
    you book them.
  • Hotels and airbnbs might run deals as the date gets closer, but not always. -
    If you find something you like, it doesn't hurt to go ahead and book it, especially
    if it's an airbnb or vrbo as these are each unique so if you like it,
    book it before someone else does!
