If you’re planning to travel in 2026—whether it’s a far-flung bucket-list adventure, an ocean-crossing cruise or a quick weekend city escape—the time to book is now. Early Black Friday travel deals have already dropped and will continue rolling out through Travel Tuesday next week, making this one of the best windows of the year to lock in major savings.
Where is everyone heading in 2026? Travel demand is surging. According to Expedia’s Unpack ’26 travel trends report, travelers are gravitating toward spectacular natural landscapes, like Big Sky, Montana; culturally rich long-haul escapes, such as Okinawa, Japan; and sun-splashed European islands, including Sardinia.
And older travelers are fueling much of that momentum: an AARP travel trends survey finds that 70% of adults 50-plus plan to take at least one trip in the year ahead. With many Black Friday promotions slashing 50–75% off normal rates, this is prime time to score that dream getaway—at a fraction of the usual cost.
Here are the best Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Travel Tuesday 2025 travel deals available right now:
