Last minute deal: Sail from LA to Papeete and fly back free with Oceania (Photos)

Cruise sales like this don't come around often. This one's a 21-day cruise from Los Angeles to Papeete on the spunky Regatta, with lots of time at sea, plenty of time to explore Hawaii and French Polynesia with free return air fare and pre-cruise hotel room for up a whopping discount--but you must book by August 31, 2011. "The essential to budget travel is to plan in advance. When it happens to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the fact of expense and budgeting is often in the back of our minds. Arranging and consuming our travel budget wisely is a priority for most families. Reducing spending and prices, while still savoring your vacation to its fullest, is the key to assured achievements and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking regarding protecting money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal finances is highly limited, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also keeping in mind that while traveling, whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a big vacation or travel expenses!..". (There are also other cruises available at this savings, but this is the most convenient for Angelenos).
