Best Black Friday Travel Deals 2024: Vacations, Hotels, Flights, and Gifts

Hotel Deals

1. Hopper 

They will be posting deals throughout the next few weeks (and you already know I use them to find cheap flights), but I’ve also got a code for $25 off your first hotel booked through them. Link here and use code “MEGHAN.” To redeem for $25 off. Last year I scored a hotel for $20 a night in Copenhagen that is usually $160 a night!

2. Booking.com

Make memories that last long after check-out with 30% or more off stays worldwide. Black Friday offerings are from November 21 and December 4, 2024. They’re also offering 25% off car rentals and 20% off activities, including river cruises and guided museum tours.

3. Sandals

These resorts have a Black Friday combination of deals this year well worth taking advantage of. You can get up to 65% OFF  plus up to $1,500 credit and 1 free night (sale ends December 3rd). Receive 1 FREE night when you book 7 nights and pay a min. of 6 nights at select resorts in select room categories. Sandals properties are adults-only, while Beaches offer family-friendly options. 

4. Omni Hotels,

Top properties like the Virgin Hotels Las Vegas (up to 35% off the best available rate through November 30), and the Conrad Punta de Mita (up to 40% off through December 6) are take part in the deal, amongst tons of other great locations. Be sure to check the specifics of the property you plan to book with since each hotel or resort has different offers and dates.

7. Boutique hotel/small chain deals worth paying attention to:

• From New York to Chicago to Miami to Washington, DC, take up to 50% off Arlo Hotel stays when you book between November 21 and December 4. Use the code CYBER to receive the savings on travel through December 31, 2025. Expect to save big on properties like Arlo Williamsburg and Arlo Nomad.

• Viva Resorts by Wyndham, a collection of all-inclusive resorts, has a buy-one, get-one sale happening between Nov. 25 and Dec. 8. With the sale, a second guest can stay for free when traveling with a full-paying adult on stays of three nights or more.

8. VRBO

Most vacation rental platforms don’t tend to offer deals, but luckily for us, Vrbo is making an exception. This holiday season, from November 22 through December 4, when you book longer stays through Vrbo, you’ll certainly get rewarded.

For those staying seven or more nights, expect an average savings of 10% off when you select the “weekly discount” filter on the app. If you plan to spend 28 days or more at your vacation rental, use the “monthly discount” filter to find properties up to 20% off.
