Allegiant Air's New Destination!

Allegiant Air announced yesterday its new destination from a multitude of different cities, including Bellingham, Washington. The new destination is Los Angeles (LAX airport)! Generally the fares are $78 each way, but with Allegiant fares are always changing and they can drop as low as $28 each way, so I am sure that will be the case with Los Angeles.

If you have not flown with Allegiant before out of Bellingham you are missing out on a great low cost airline, that flys to a good selection of locations. Including: Las Vegas (several times a day), Reno, San Fransisco, Oakland, Palm Springs, Phoenix, San Diego and now Los Angeles.

The only way to purchase Allegiant fares is through Allegiant Airlines website, call centre or a travel agent, they do not offer their fares through any third party websites (ie. travelocity)

If you would like any more information on Allegiant Airlines or flying out of Bellingham, please feel free to contact me at travelsecrets@shaw.ca

Happy Travels

Belize!

Wow I can not believe my tardiness at updating this blog of late! I apologize.
Anyway as the title announces I have some great information about Belize.
Recently we travelled there on some great flight deals with American Airlines ($135 each way, found through Airfarewatchdog.com). We choose Placencia in the Southern part of Belize as our destination through reading up and other recommendations from people that we knew. We were very happy with our decision of Placencia, as it was beautiful, great beaches, great locals and a plethora of things to do.
After many hours of searching I decided on the Bellamaya Resort located on the Placencia Pennisula. This resort does not disappoint, every picture and every comment is true. The restaurant was so delicious, they even stayed open for us on our late arrival. The pool is gorgeous and the drinks at the bar were delicious. We will definately return and encourage anyone headed to Belize to consider this resort and the Placencia area as their destination.
Here are a few pictures:

If anyone has any questions to ask about the resort, Belize or Placencia in general, please do not hesitate to ask!
