We’re last minute people, maybe a week in advance without air travel, a month with. A family friend just invited us to join them on a vacation NOVEMBER 2025. That seems bonkers to me!

How far in advance do you plan a small trip like a road trip or visiting family, and how far in advance for a big trip like international travel, a cruise, or Disney?

    I don’t. Sometimes I do an airport dropoff and then I head toward the waiting lot. But as I’m approaching the lot I just go to long term parking instead, buy a ticket, and live in Thailand for a few weeks.

    Last few years we have been booking vacations when we have big race events, to put 1 and 1 together and save money. So 1 year in advance (that’s when ironmans registrations opens up).

    Back when we where only traveling, usually from Feb/march for august. Go get best deals and low tickets.

    Months before. By the time it comes around, the only thing we’re doing is calling the cab to the posh airport hotel (because fuck yeah) and bugging out.
