It’s Never Too Early for Thanksgiving Specials

Jun 7th, 2007 | By Jared Blank

If your family sucks, you probably want to avoid them for Thanksgiving (mine doesn’t, but yours might). That’s why I’m letting you know about great Thanksgiving travel deals now. In June. Way before Thanksgiving. Because then you can tell your family that you’ve had this trip planned for a looooong time, and you’re really sorry, but maybe you’ll see them next year. Or not.

Gate1Travel has a whole bunch of 4 night trips to Europe over Thanksgiving for under $700, including airfare and hotel. London is $500, Paris/Madrid/Florence/Rome/Venice/Budapest are all under $600, while Prague/Vienna or Lisbon are under $650. What a steal.
