neogeo0823 posted:So, this may be a stupid question, but with sites like Kayak and Travelaxe, if I search for a hotel room for 2 people and list the results to show the trip total, and a hotel listing comes up at, say, $1000, does that mean $1000 for the room for two people, or $1000 per person? I ask because when we checked with a travel agent a few months ago, they quoted us a trip totaling around $3400 which included airfare, hotel, fees and taxes. I realize that prices have changed between then and now, but I'm seeing prices for flights at a similar timeframe, and hotels with similar qualities, for $1-2k total. That's a huge price difference for two trips where the only real difference is whether I went to a travel agent or booked it myself. You're looking at total on Kayak, so $1,000 for the room for 1-2 people. Sometimes hotels add a charge if you specify 3 people. I believe on Kayak, they show the price without any taxes or fees so you might want to click through and see how much you're paying after tax (shouldn't be too much higher). If you can book something cheaper yourself airfare + hotel than what your travel agent quoted you then do it. When you find a price you like on hotels and airfare, try to book directly rather than through Orbitz or some OTA (online travel agent) if they are the same price; otherwise book at a reputable OTA.
