Tips and tricks for getting the most out of Black Friday and Cyber Monday

 Follow these tips to get the most out of booking a trip:

• Book on the app Find better rates every day with member pricing on the Expedia and Hotels.com apps, plus the convenience of having itinerary details, support and inspiration at your fingertips. Travelers who book private vacation homes through Vrbo are also protected under the Book with Confidence Guarantee
• Book flexible rates Flexibility is key for holiday and winter travel
  • On Expedia and Hotels.com, book refundable stays by filtering for "free cancellation"
  • Try to avoid restrictive or non-refundable airfare. Expedia makes it easy to compare fares during the booking process by highlighting what is or isn't included with the ticket, such as seat selection, checked baggage or whether changes are permitted. Paying a bit more for flexibility can bring peace of mind, which is especially valuable during the holidays
  • On Vrbo, take advantage of the number of vacation rental owners who have relaxed their cancellation policies. The most flexible policy on Vrbo allows travelers to cancel their reservation up to 14 days before check-in and receive a full refund
• Unlock deeper savings by building Just by booking multiple items at the same time on Expedia, such as adding a car rental, activity or hotel to a flight purchase, travelers can save on their trip
• Keep tabs on the latest travel restrictions With restrictions changing by the day or week, it can be tricky to stay up to date on the latest COVID-related guidelines. Use the Expedia Travel Advisor which lets travelers select their origin and destination to see what travel advisories or COVID-19 restrictions are in place
