Travel Discount Codes Here to Stay

As we’ve mentioned in previous posts, coupon and discount codes for travel have been among the more noticeable trends in the online travel space this year. In a short time, they’ve gone from being pretty much non-existent to regular features in airline, car and hotel newsletters, web sites and special offers sections. And recently, we ran across CouponShack, a web site that aims to round these kinds of travel discount codes up all in one place.

In the travel section (the site offers coupon and discount codes from all kinds of online retailers), you can quickly scan the list of current hotel chains and online travel retailers to find available codes and their expiration dates.

We noticed that clicking on many of the travel merchants listed led us to deals available without codes and required us to use a reservation or booking engine to search for available dates and corresponding rates as we would with any deals-oriented section of a web site, but we were able find several current discount codes for BedandBreakfast.com, Marriott and Extended Stay.

What we liked the most about the site was the clear listing of expiration dates and the option to rate different deals and discount codes. The site also lists codes for air travel and cruises, not to mention tons of mainstream stores and retail brands.
