FREE GLOBAL & DOMESTIC TRAVEL which always beats discount travel. In recent years we have enjoyed free travel to such destinations as Africa, Israel, Australia, Brazil, France, New Zealand, Hawaii, England, Greece, Alaska and our lower 48. Other budget travel areas include such as air brokers, rebate travel agencies, renting a Paris/Barcelona apartments for as little as $65/night (depending on length of stay and size of apt.), sightseeing and general TIPS on travel related comfort, safey/convenience and day to day SAVINGS. Since we travel Free 95% of the time I DO NOT OFFER ADVICE ON CHEAPEST, LOWEST PRICED AND/OR LAST MINUTE AIRLINE FARES. Such deals are best found by diligent Google research & reading the N.Y. and/or L.A. Sunday best in the U.S. Travel sections. FREE airline deals may NOT be available to non-U.S. residents.
Hired by Sunnyland Tours to do a 10 minute promo film of their Crocodile Nile river cruise ship in Egypt, by VW Tours to do a ten minute promo video of their MS Vampolov cruise ship sailing on Lake Baikal in Irkutsk, Siberia and by Citadel Press to write two (Vacations & Cruising) travel guides.

NEW EXPERTISE SECTION: We enjoy Free global & domestic air travel 95% of the time and have authored two bargain TRAVEL GUIDES (Author's web site: cheaptravel.net) During the past 5 years we have traveled around the globe six months per year! Since Free travel beats 'discount' fares we DO NOT specialize in 'last minute' air fare deals.
We savor and foster the fun and joy of FREE domestic but mostly GLOBAL travel. Sharing the 'word' with our FREE Steve & Pat's Cheap Travel Newsletter now in its 9th year.
Do you know that a FREE award flight, for example NY to Maui, entitles you to enjoy a second 'extra' FREE flight ie. from Maui to San Franfisco or to any other U.S. destination before your final FREE flight home?
We booked RT FREE Maui flights + extra FREE flights to NY. Our friends with the same miles available for free flights were denied and had to pay $700 EACH.

Hi Paul: Not dumb but interesting. I'll assume the UK is every bit as security conscious as the U.S. In olden days one could buy a plane ticket and give it to anyone who could take it to the airport
Steve to Steve..... Hi: First off my expertise if FREE airline travel. For example we just spent one month living in Barcelona (1BR apt best location $65/nite).And I am now replying from our Paris
Hi Chris: REALLY REALLY REALLY>...... We leave shortly for one month in Barcelona, one month in Paris and a stop in NYC before flying home to California. ALL OUR FLIGHTS ARE FREE. It is common
Hi Tom: Congrats on a marvelous idea. You wife should be thrilled to receive such a surprise gift. We have been Maui taxpayers for many years meaning that some time ago we purchased two studio apartments
Dear Nikki: Glad we think alike vis a vis nothing beats FREE travel. On the very big ‘plus side’ you have time on your side. No last minute efforts here and that can only work in your favor. Regarding
