7 Tips To Avoid Costly Surprises When Travelling Abroad
Author: Zahid Saddique

==> Try to buy your vacation travel package from a business you know.

If possible, deal with businesses that belong to professional associations such as the American Society of Travel Agents, the National Tour Association or the United States Tour Operators Association. If you're not familiar with a company, get its complete name, address and local telephone number.

==> Be cautious if the names of the seller and travel provider differ.


You may be dealing with a telemarketer who has no responsibility to you after the sale. And be wary of ads in the newspaper, on the Internet or that you receive by unsolicited fax that offer deeply discounted vacations. These "deals" often contain hidden costs or don't tell you that you may have to attend a sales presentation to qualify for the discount or the travel. Avoid buying from a firm that wants to send a courier for your payment or asks you to send your payment by overnight delivery. The business may be trying to avoid detection and charges of mail or wire fraud.

==> Verify arrangements with your travel agent before you pay.

Get the details of your vacation in writing and a copy of the cancellation and refund policies. Ask if the business has insurance and whether you should buy cancellation insurance. Get the names, addresses and telephone numbers for the lodgings, airlines and cruise ships you'll be using. Don't accept vague terms such as "major hotels" or "luxury cruise ships." Call to verify specific reservations, too.

==> Use a credit card to make your purchase.

If you don't get what you paid for, you may be able to dispute the charges with your credit card company. Some telemarketers may claim they need your account information for identification or verification. They don't. Your account number should be used only to bill you for goods and services.

==> Be wary of prepaying for long-term arrangements.

Timeshares, campgrounds or travel clubs may offer to sell membership vacation accommodations for five years or more, or until you resell your interest. Unless you're certain you'll stay healthy, both physically and financially, and that the company selling the memberships will stay in business, prepaid vacations may not be right for you. In addition, annual membership and maintenance fees may rise. If the seller claims the fees will stay the same, beware. Beautiful properties today may be run-down in five or 10 years without sufficient maintenance. If you decide to buy a timeshare or membership in a vacation club, be aware that resales are difficult, if not impossible, because there's no secondary market. As for timeshares as investments: they rarely appreciate in value.

==> Learn the vocabulary.

"You have been specially selected to receive our SPECTACULAR LUXURY DREAM VACATION offer" doesn't mean you'll get a free vacation. It means you'll be offered an opportunity to pay for a trip that may fit your idea of luxury - or not. "Subject to availability" means you may not get the accommodations you want when you want them. "Blackout periods" are blocks of dates, usually around holidays or peak season, when no discount travel is available.

==> Watch out for "instant travel agent" offers.

Companies may offer to sell you identification that will "guarantee" you discounted rates. These companies have no control over discounts. Only suppliers of travel - cruise lines, hotel companies, car rental companies, or airlines - can decide to extend professional courtesies, and to whom.

The Insider's Guide to U.S. Timeshares (635 resorts)
An indepth look at 635 timeshares in the U.S. The most detailed book about timeshares ever written. Each resort is described in detail, along with area attractions, golf and ski information, 800 numbers, resort activities, unit information, location, services, and more. If you are an owner of a timeshare or just work in the industry, this book is a must.
Customer Review: Puffery
I should have taken the review from "the reader from Morgan Hills of CA" to heart. Although the book is sub-titled "An in-depth look at resorts" there is no in-depth analysis at all. I found the book to be worthless for a person trying to decide which resort would be worth looking into as a possible purchase, there is no financial data at all.
Customer Review: Lots of handy info all in one place...
Whenever possible, my family and I like to stay at resort condos when we travel. This book has come in very handy in helping us to see what options are available and narrow down our choices. The couple of places we have stayed as a result have been wonderful experiences. True, a lot of the same information is also available on the internet, but I'd much rather have it all in one place in my hands than visit a hundred different web pages just to browse what's available in Florida, for example. The only improvements I could think of to make would be more photos and maybe more opinionated reviews. But it's nice to have a book that focuses on timeshare resorts, since most big-name travel guides emphasize hotels and only give a few choices.

Timeshare: Second Time Around (Timeshare Trilogy)
Customer Review: Great Series
I try to re-read this series a couple times a year. I Googled Joshua Dann and found a web site is the UK that says he is also writing under the name J. D. Austin.
Customer Review: Charming, old-fashioned and a good read
SECOND TIME AROUND is a wonderful book in how it captures the 1920s and time travel. The plot and setting is vividly caught in a neat style. However, there are few redeeming qualities about the narrator. He continually "grabs" his girlfriend (and gets quite possessive over her during one scene at a nightclub) and constantly refers to her beauty and the fact that they make love every night. He also likes to pat himself on the back a lot in his relations with people and comes across as patronizing rather than sincere. He "conveniently" solves Dorothy Parker's problems by "giving" her a man and fails to remember that there were women at the Algonquin Table as well as men. (This fact can be verified by several reference sources.) It seems that he has confused being old fashioned (which is fine) with being ignorant (women aren't helpless). Way too much time is spent on the fact that FBI director Hoover was gay, as if that were the reason he was corrupt. While it is true that Althea is given the opportunity to help with the protagonist's problems, she is often left behind and patronized. Hopefully, Mr. Dann's third book in the third series (about World War 11) will give Althea her due. This storyteller is definitely talented and able to keep the reader glued to the page. Maybe next time he'll leave out the subtle sexism and homophobia.

Timeshare Condominiums for the Beginner
You?ve probably noticed that it?s difficult to find entirely objective and pertinent information on timesharing That is, until now! This book is a concise, reasonable, and as far as possible unbiased guide for consumers, presenting them available data, analysis, facts, and trends to let them finally makes their own decisions. Recent books on the topic, though remarkably well written, do not cover the buyer?s point of view. And, few authors may be involved in rendering legal, accounting, or marketing counsel to the industry, while positions overly critical are withheld or subdued. By reviewing what?s been written before, this book sets the stage for understanding the timesharing concept and technique, and helps the consumers in making a sound decision in buying or not buying a timeshare. Many of the controversies surrounding timesharing could be avoided if consumers were better informed.
Customer Review: Some good information, very effectively disguised
It's hard to believe I read the same book as the other reviewers. While I believe there is some really useful information in this book, it is very hard to identify it. It seems every page has grammatical and spelling errors, missing words, and seemingly random thoughts assembled into a paragraph. This book could probably be one-third the size if the information was organized and presented just once instead of popping up randomly over and over. [...] should be embarrassed by their association with this result. It shows what self-publishing can produce and shows by its absence the value of editing and proofreading.
Customer Review: Every little bit helps
As far as I am concerned, every bit of information the public can learn about my favorite subject of vacation timeshare, makes it just that much better. It is a great product, and since it can be a little confusing to a person new to the subject, I am happy to see more books about timeshare now on Amazon.com. This book seems to be an unbiased presentation that really tries to clear up the diverse subject areas.
