Unless you're loaded chances are you'd prefer to maximize your gambling capital by minimizing your travel expenses.

There are travel sites galore on the Internet, and many that are devoted exclusively to Las Vegas, but the trick is to sort through them to discover the best deals and lowest prices.

If your travel plans are flexible, and you can embark on a moment's notice, or wait an indefinite amount of time, check out "Farecast", a service that forecasts air travel fares, both immediate and long term.

"Flightstats" is a different kind of service in that it concentrates not only on low fares and travel package deals but it also calculates the odds of having a hassle free travel experience. Statistics on the history of airlines delays and other problems are compiled so you can see at a glance where your best chances bets for a smooth trip are.

This may be the place for the gambler who needs his or her connections to go as smoothly and predictably as possible. The site also has information on deals and loyalty club specials, and forums to share travel experiences.

"PointMaven" is a helpful site that helps you maximize your hotel reward points.

One final tip, join the airline rewards program for every airline you fly, even if you think you may never travel with them again. It's free and you may discover that the points are transferable to an airline that you use frequently.
