Do the dog days of winter have you yearning for longer days and sunnier skies? Here are three tips for planning the perfect spring break getaway:

1. Start now

Spring break is a popular time for traveling for families, couples, and party-goers alike, which can also make it a more expensive time to travel. To that end, travel experts recommend planning the trip several months in advance, as doing so could save you money on flights and accommodations, as well as give you ample time to figure out your itinerary, excursions, and activities.

2. Think outside the box

Looking to avoid the crowds? Dodge the major spring break hotspots such as beach resorts in Florida or Mexico, and instead consider locations that are more off the beaten path, such as a visit to a state park, renting a cabin in the mountains, or going to Alaska to see the northern lights.
