~Guests Who Book Minimum Three-Night Stay By August 31 Can Receive An Air Credit of Up to $550~ MIAMI, July 15 /EMWNews/ -- Rising airline costs and talk of a downturn in the economy may have spurred the "staycation," travel's latest trend du jour, but would Americans really rather stay home when they can be footloose on a Caribbean beach, cocktail in hand without having to attend to laundry or the lawn? Sandals Resorts doesn't think so. Beginning July 18, 2008, the Caribbean's leading chain for romance-minded travelers is offering a limited-time "Fly Free Promotion," that offers guests who book a minimum three-night stay by August 31, 2008 with an air credit of up to $550 per person. "Rising costs on nearly every aspect of flying these days -- from checked baggage to one's seat location -- have really placed a damper on Americans' travel plans this year, many even opting out on some well-deserved R&R all together," Kevin Froemming, President of Unique Vacations Inc., the worldwide representatives for Sandals Resorts, said. "Through this exclusive offer, there is no need to put travel plans on hold. Americans have a right to vacation and this program is designed to provide those travelers with some relief." Valid for travel between July 18, 2008 and December 20, 2009 (blackout dates apply), the promotion also features 30 percent off regular rack rates for guests who book a six-night stay or longer, with rates starting as low as $198 per person, per night. Those who book a seven-night stay in select top-category suites, including the luxurious Swim-up River Suites at Sandals Negril Beach Resort & Spa, can also receive up to two nights free, in addition to 30 percent off rack rates and the air credit. Guests who book stays between three and five nights are still eligible to receive up to 25 percent off rack rates, plus the air credit. With airfares ranging from $270 to $540 from major US gateways to the Caribbean this summer, Sandals Resorts' "Fly Free Promotion" is designed to cover most, if not all, of the cost of air travel. "A $50 spa credit simply isn't going to cut it," Froemming added. "Through the Sandals Fly Free promotion, guests can literally have the entire cost of their airfare covered. We take guest satisfaction very seriously and are always seeking ways to reward guests for their business, particularly during these difficult economic times." Sandals Resorts' "Fly Free Promotion" is available at all 12 resort locations in Jamaica, Antigua, St. Lucia and The Bahamas. Air credits vary per resort.
