Spring Break Is Around The Corner

By. Meredith Biesinger

Many of us are about a month away from Spring Break, a much-needed time for rest and renewal for both teachers and students. 

There are so many options for affordable vacations now. Whether it’s a day trip to somewhere nearby or a week-long trip to a desired destination, the travel industry offers educators and their families various ways to make memories during Spring Break this year!

Are you seeking a warm destination? Priceline is offering 60% off hotels in Florida right now. 

If you’re not sure where you want to go, or if you have a specific budget to stick to, check out Hotels.com. Currently, they are offering up to 25% off, plus an extra 10% off for teachers. Some of the best trips I’ve ever taken have been booked at the last minute and with exceptional rates! 

Looking to fly? Try Cheap O’Air. With the discount code of SPRING30, you’ll get thirty percent off your fight, plus you can book your hotel and car rental with them too! Known for world-class service and a guaranteed price match, your Spring Break plans might be found at Cheap O’Air. 

Have you ever heard of “Teacher Home Swap?” It is a less conventional but incredible way to travel to new places or return to favorite vacation spots. Why pay the national average of $140 a night for a hotel room when you can spend less than $100 for unlimited stays in unique homes across the country? 

Teacher Home Swap connects homeowners with other teachers who are willing to house-sit in exchange for a place to stay. This offer is available to K-12 teachers and higher ed faculty in the US year-round. You can safely and securely connect with other teachers to swap houses during various vacations times throughout the year. 

Sometimes the best Spring Break vacations happen at home. Staycations can be great for the mind, body, soul, and wallet!  Whatever your Spring Break plans are, be sure to take some time for yourself. You deserve it!
