LOS ANGELES, CA–(Marketwire – July 26, 2010) –  Typically, it’s not too difficult to find a good deal on airline tickets and hotels as travel companies are competing against each other to offer travelers the lowest prices possible. While this might entice travelers to pack their bags for a vacation, they should be aware of several travel scam complaints before leaving for that much needed vacation. To protect travelers from possible scams, Planet Antares Scam Solutions offers tips to avoid travel scams.

Watch Out for Fake Tourist Guides:
While traveling overseas, it is common to come across plenty of agents who pose as “travel guides.” They will attempt to set up reservations but will fail to follow through. Set up travel plans in advance or through the hotel. Don’t give any credit card information to anyone posing as a guide outside of the designated hotel. 

Look Out for “Free” Vacation Scams:
The free vacation scam revolves around getting people to sign up on a travel club website by offering them a “chance” to win a free vacation of their dreams. However, the person then realizes a bill from the website due to an automatic subscription they most likely unknowingly signed up for. Apart from a monthly fee, people might even have to pay for initiation fees, subscription fees and other charges mentioned in the terms and conditions section of the “free” website. Planet Antares recommends to always read the terms and conditions as well as any other agreement before giving credit card information.

Beware of Unexpected Resort Fees:
Travel related websites have been infamous for displaying eye-catchy deals at jaw dropping prices on overnight hotel stays, spa packages, etc. Upfront these offers seem like a good deal until check out comes. What some these websites don’t reveal is the fact that hotel costs are exclusive of add-on charges such as daily housekeeping, in-room beverages, turndown services, etc. which will be added to the final bill. To avoid such circumstances, make sure to enquire about hidden costs and read the terms and conditions mentioned on the hotel website. Always select a hotel that has low or no daily fees.
