Planning travel, especially with kids, can feel overwhelming. These are the booking platforms and tools I personally use on every trip to keep things simple, organized, and (mostly) stress-free.
Hotels & Car Rentals
Booking.com
My go-to platform for accommodations and rental cars. I try to keep bookings centralized for easier management and to benefit from loyalty perks.
✔ Huge selection worldwide
✔ Flexible cancellation options
✔ Excellent for family stays
✔ Easy car rental comparisons
Flights
Expedia.com
Where I usually begin my flight search. I love comparing airlines, routes, and pricing quickly before checking directly with the carrier.
✔ Side-by-side comparisons
✔ Helpful for multi-leg trips
✔ Bundle options
✔ Great research starting point
My Booking Strategy
My typical trip planning flow:
1️⃣ Compare flights on Expedia
2️⃣ Cross-check airline websites
3️⃣ Book hotels & cars via Booking.com
4️⃣ Keep confirmations organized
Because travel madness is optional.
