Looking for last-minute travel bargains?

Travelzoo puts together free Top 20 weekly lists of travel and entertainment deals and sends them by email to more than 26 million subscribers worldwide. The U.S. edition often features deals that Europe-based readers can scoop up easily, since they need not go through the hassle of booking trans-Atlantic flights to take advantage of them.

To further increase the chance of nailing the best bargain, sign up to receive Travelzoo’s German, Spanish or UK editions. Language skills need not be perfect to understand the offers — and online translation tools can help out in a pinch.

The Top 20 can go far beyond airfare, to include such things as cruise deals, hotel bargains and cycle rentals. Newsletter subscribers also receive occasional emails promoting regional offers such as day spas or reduced-price entry to museums. Sign up at www.travelzoo.com.
