We’re looking into going away sometime in March-April next year…any suggestions? We want to stay in US or perhaps go to Canada…so no Mexico/South America..
so far I’ve seen deals for costa rica, Montreal, and hawai…can’t decide where else to go?
I’ve looked on travelzoo and orbitz..
Please suggest any other cities/websites..thanks

how many people are there in ur party? a tip: if u wanna save some big bucks and if u decide to visit canada, its a good idea to fly into a bordering city within the US and then rent a car and drive over. fares alone to canada are much higher than the fares u wud pay to travel the same distance within the US.
we’re going to Richmond, Virginia and when i looked up for fares i was stunned to see the difference in fares. if i were to fly from Toronto as compared to Buffalo, which is only hour an a half drive from my place. Fares from Toronto averaged around Can $500/person while from Buffalo it was ony Can $183 with all the taxes and fees. a huge saving right there. Canadian fares are too high coz of taxes and less competition.
a good place to start is www.kayak.com. i love this site coz it compares the fares with 4-5 different travel sites using multiple airlines.
Good Luck!
P.S.: Don’t forget to check the box that says “my dates are flexible” so it will give you the fares available over a total of 6 days with one search

hwo about Orlando, Florida? Only if you enjoy disney! My husband and I went there in 2009 for 4 days.. booked teh ticket, hotel, car on cheaptickets.com and yes we stayed under $2000.00 including meals/park tickets etc. in Florida! We got a deal for disney themeparks at our hotel.. we paid the price of 1 for two!
This year we went to Los Angeles/San Diego.. don;t visit the disney land but there is sooooooo much to do, universal studios, zoo, sea world etc etc.. again we booked the airfare, hotel, car on priceline.com and I am very very picky about hotels.. I read about 100 reviews before I book one.. tripadvisor.com is the place for hotel reviews!
Last btu not least, we did a road trip to DC/VA last year in March.. I will not recommend it just because it was pouring and there wasn't much outdoor stuff to do but we visited a few museums in DC and Shanandoah caverns in VA.. nice trip.. we took our car and booked the hotel on priceline.com.. it was the cheapest trip ever :-D
I will say Hawaii but then I dunno what's there to do excpet to stare in each others eyes.. which I am sure you do at home :D
