From city breaks, beach holidays to cheaper European destinations, the list features a few tried and true destinations tested by the self-described "underpaid editors at Fodor's" who "know a thing or two about economic travel."
Here are some of their recommendations:
Merida, Mexico
Flights to Merida from the US can be found for as little as US$500 (RM2,214) and a romantic stay at a boutique hotel can easily booked for US$250 a night, an itinerary that's easy on the wallet for a three-day weekend. "You'll even have enough money left over to splurge on the tasting menu at Kuuk, a modern Mayan restaurant specialising in molecular gastronomy."
Chicago, Illinois
February is off-season for Chi-Town, with hotel room rates as low as US$100 at trendy properties like the Acme Hotel Company, Whitehall Hotel and Millennium Knickerbocker. And unlike New York, visitors can easily find theatre tickets to a world-class show for less than US$200, along with a world-class meal for about US$150.
Charleston's quaint southern charm is recommended for couples who appreciate historical architecture, warm weather and flavourful, dynamic dining. February is also low-season for the city and be found for less than US$200.
Reykjavik, Iceland
Through March 26, Icelandair is offering package deals to Iceland for less than US$1,000 per person that includes airfare, a three-night stay in the capital, a trip to the Blue Lagoon's famous hot springs, and a Northern Lights sightseeing cruise.
Lisbon, Portugal
Lisbon has the charm and romance of its more popular European cousins, at a fraction of the price tag. Couples in Lisbon will also find cobblestone streets, romantic vistas, intimate cafes and romantic restaurants. Last-minute flights from the US can be found for about US$700. ― AFP-Relaxnews
