If you’re starting to think about your next vacation, you might want to start packing your bags... now!
According to Kayak’s 2018 Travel Hacker Guide, January and February and other “shoulder seasons” are the cheapest times for domestic travel.

Kayak studied over 1.5 billion searches on the site to find the most-coveted destinations. And if you’re itching to get away from the cold, you may be happy to know that the top wallet-friendly travel spot was Guadalajara, Mexico.
“It’s actually an emerging destination,” Solomito said. “There’s a tequila train that will take you out to Tequila Country. You can do tequila tasting. It’s becoming extremely popular and almost akin to [going] on a wine vacation.”
