Let’s cut to the chase. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are known for bringing exciting deals and discounts in the travel world, but in 2023, the word is “scarcity”. With the travel demand tapering off, it’s important to find the offers that truly bring value. In an effort to save you from the overwhelming number of “deal” emails flooding your inbox, we’ve curated a list of only the best travel discounts.
Black Friday falls on November 24th this year, but many deals are already available. This article will be updated as more deals are released, so be sure to bookmark this page and check back for updates. In the meantime, here are some early launches to get you started.
Hotels:
– Viceroy Hotels: Viceroy is offering legitimate 35% off deals with flexible cancellation options. This is a huge differentiator as most hotel groups offer discounts but no flexibility. Check out the Viceroy Cyber Week Offers.
