Normal people tend to turn the calendar over to February with a bit of a groan. Nearly everyone I know complains about this month – either because it’s too gray, too short (but the bills are the same), or too artificially lovey-dovey. I keep my mouth shut when they start complaining, because as someone whose… Continue reading Special February 2010 fares for RTW tickets

The dawn of a new year is about nothing if not navel-gazing, and we certainly don’t want to be left out. But this is no ordinary new year – it’s also a new decade (or the last year of the last decade, depending on how you’re counting them, but still).

They’re tickets that include several flights, and they’ll take you to a long list of places around the globe – but they don’t usually continue in more or less one direction around the planet.… Continue reading Special September 2009 fares for RTW tickets

Every month, we publish a few of the special deals on multi-stop tickets which are available for that month. And every month, we look through them and think about whether we’d like to that the trip that’s laid out in them. Of course, if someone were to hand us a free ticket we’d go just… Continue reading Special August 2009 fares for RTW tickets

We are now officially halfway through 2009 (don’t ask where the year went – we’re still trying to figure that out ourselves), which also means we’re smack dab in the middle of summer in the northern hemisphere. This being the time when, traditionally, everyone and their brother goes on vacation, it stands to reason that… Continue reading Special July 2009 fares for RTW tickets
