Reservation Sites: Flights and More (Chapter 3)
The best-known category of travel sites is reservation sites, where
you can go to find rates and schedules and to book reservations. They
include online travel agency sites, such as Travelocity, Expedia, and
others, as well as sites from airlines, hotel chains, and car rental
chains. Although for decades, real live travel agents in general did a
great job making travel arrangements, the Internet has drastically
changed the picture. Online reservation sites make it easy for an individual
to explore an amazingly broad range of options in terms of
where and when to go and how much to pay. These sites, which also
make it easy to quickly purchase tickets, will be discussed in detail in
Chapter 3, with the emphasis there on airline reservations.
Train, Car, and Ferry Travel (Chapter 4)
Most travel agency sites, such as Travelocity, will be more than
happy to help you find many modes of transportation in addition to
flights. However, when you are driving or travel by train or ferry, you
may need some more specialized information and attention. If you
plan on driving, there are numerous sites, such as the various map
sites (MapQuest, Yahoo! Local, and Maporama, for example), that will
provide you with itineraries, directions, travel times, and other information.
If you are taking a train or ferry, you will need timetables, information
on accommodations, and other details that can often be found
more easily on the Web than anywhere else. How to find this information
will be covered in Chapter 4.
Cruises: Ships, Barges, and Boats (Chapter 5)
If you haven’t noticed, cruises are “hot” (or “cool,” or de rigueur, if
you please) these days. But take it from someone who was a skeptic:
If you haven’t been on a cruise yet, chances are extremely good that

by the time you return home from your first one, you will be planning
another. As with almost any hot topic, there are lots of hot Web sites
for cruises. Again, the general online travel agency sites will be helpful,
but Chapter 5 will provide considerable detail on using those sites
specifically for cruises and also will cover a number of other sites and
resources available for planning (and taking) a cruise. “Cruises,” of
course, can mean a lot more than a travel aboard a gigantic (but
wonderful) 1,000-foot-long floating resort. It can also mean a cruise
down the Danube, a week on a barge in France, or a trip aboard a
paddle wheeler on the Mississippi.
