An Elusive Travel Website for Military - Big Savings!

As many of you know, I have a relative, Arno, who works for one of the airlines. He has been to every continent on our green earth and is pretty close to visiting four or five dozen countries by now. He manages to get around. I guess that's one of the perks you deal with when you have passengers screaming at you and lost luggage and flights that don't want to leave on time. Speaking of perks...

He did tell me about one site that caters to airline employees. They get discounts on travel packages, hotels, rental cars...every time I turn around, he is telling me of a new place that gives him a discount...including Amazon.com and some other shopping sites....hey....what about the rest of us?

I was pleasantly surprised the other day, when he told me about a site that gives huge discounts to travel industry personnel AND those in the military. Of course I checked it out right away. A 7 day cruise in Tahiti for around $500 per person? Was that a misprint? Apparently...no. The discounts are deep. So, before planning your next vacation, be sure to check it out at:

Perx - Airline Employee Discount Travel (and military too)

If anyone does decide to book through them for the next vacation, please do let me know! There is one other site that I hear military folks talking about...but mostly, I see timeshare deals...which in some cases don't turn out to be deals when you read the fine print about meals..and then figure in your airfare. But, I did have a friend who rented a cabin in Rocky Mountain National Park through the site, and she said it was a steal. If you know of any other military specific sites, please do share:-))

And for our wounded warriors and their families, a group of folks in Florida are offering up their beach homes...for free. And now it looks like a property management company in Orlando is doing the same.
