The 15 Best Hotel Booking Sites. – I normally book hotel rooms using points, but there are situations where points aren’t the best deal or my favorite hotels aren’t available. When that happens, it’s time to book with cash. When you use these sites, you may not earn points or stay credits and most hotels won’t honor elite status perks. But, they could still be a great deal in the right situation. Some of my favorites are Club1Hotels, Dosh, and HotelTonight.

I’ve flown JSX numerous times, and it is a wonderful experience that doesn’t cost much more than a Southwest flight.
