Here we are in the midst of vacation season and the deals are everywhere!

Clark has found a new website called Voyij.com that scans cyberspace for the best airfare sales, hotels deals and vacation packages.

You simply select a departing airport and supply a general idea of when you'd like to travel. No specific departure date is required. Of course, some of the results may be false leads, but others will be real savings opportunities for you.

Deals are easy to come by these days. The international airlines have doubled their dismal estimates about the losses they expect to take this year. They're just having too much trouble filling seats, even as they park more planes in the desert.

The best deals from the United States right now are all to Australia. You may even be able to get a fare to Down Under that's lower than it would be to go to Europe from many U.S. markets. Richard Branson's V Australia airline is partly to thank for this.

There are also other great deals to Central America, as well as to various locations in the United States of America itself.

Here's the key Clark Howard rule when it comes to travel: Buy the deal first and then figure out why you want to go there! You'll save a fortune and eventually see the whole world this way, just like Clark. And he's done it cheaper than just about anybody else, except a rot-gut cheap backpacker!
