Travel Themed Goodies

First of all I want to apologize for my absence and lame-o posting over the last few weeks. Between Christmas, my family's one week visit, finishing up my final semester at law school and moving out of New York (during one of the snowiest winters!) to Amsterdam, I've been a little busy. Now that I'm in Amsterdam, I will finally be able to get back to the business of blogging.

Right now, I am super jet-lagged and achy from moving huge suitcases across the Atlantic so I don't have the energy to do a wedding planning updates. Instead, I decided to do a travel-themed post. In honor of my move to Amsterdam, here is some fabulous travel themed wedding inspiration.

Ticket prices

The following charts show the lowest round trip price by departure date from relevant cities in the U.S to San Jose, Costa Rica, based on actual customer searches on Priceline.com. Prices found between 7-21 days prior to departure with a trip length of 2-10 days.

* Good news: End of May is a relatively cheap time to travel to Costa Rica.
* Bad news: These numbers are fairly meaningless. D and I travelled to CR last Jan for $242 rt which is clearly not indicated on the chart because we bought the tickets a two months in advance.

Los Angeles, California to San Jose, Costa Rica

Dallas, Texas to San Jose California

New York City to San Jose, California

I just thought these charts would be helpful for my guests to see so they have an idea of what to expect price wise. If you are one of the many guests who are not coming from one of these cities you can just set up a travel alert on Priceline (or any other discount ticket website) and get the same information.
