Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Travel Tuesday have effectively merged into a two-week global travel sale, with many brands already live and most promotions running into early December.
Major roundups from NerdWallet, The Points Guy, Time Out, and others highlight triple-digit savings on hotels, long-haul holidays, tours and cruises, often for travel well into late 2026.
The “best” deals tend to combine high percentage discounts, long travel windows and solid brands. Below are some of the strongest offers on those criteria.
Best Overall: Booking Sites With Deep, Stackable Discounts
Booking.com – Up to 40% Off Plus Extras
Booking.com’s Black Friday sale (live from November 20) is one of the broadest:
- Up to 40% off selected accommodations
- Up to 25% off car rentals
- Up to 20% off selected attractions and airport rides
- Up to 15% off selected flights
- Cruise bookings can include up to $2,000 onboard credit
Deals can be booked through December 3, 2025 for travel through the end of 2026.
Expedia / Hotels.com – Up to 50–75% Off
Expedia and Hotels.com are running some of the steepest headline discounts:
- Up to 50% off thousands of hotels when booked between November 20 and December 2, 2025, with travel often allowed until late 2026
- Additional flash deals up to 75% off on selected days, particularly between Black Friday and Travel Tuesday
For flexible travelers who can adjust dates and destinations, these OTAs are among the best all-round money-savers.
Best Hotel Chain Deals: Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott & More
Hyatt – Up to 30% Off and Extras
Hyatt’s Black Friday / Cyber campaign is consistently rated a top pick. NerdWallet and Time Out report:

If you want logistics handled and built-in social travel, these tour discounts are some of the strongest value-per-dollar deals this Black Friday.
Notable Cruise & Long-Haul Package Deals
Cruise and long-haul specialists have joined in with high absolute savings (hundreds or even thousands off):
- Flight Centre UK: Long-haul holidays from around £775pp, up to 30% off tours and £1,000 off cruises, bookable until December 3, 2025
- Regional roundups (Australia, North America and Europe) highlight Emerald Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess and others with up to 50% off or several thousand dollars off selected itineraries into 2026–2027
These are particularly compelling for travelers comfortable planning one or two years ahead in exchange for substantial savings.
How to Actually Grab the Best Deals
Specialist sites that track dozens or even 100+ offers, such as NerdWallet (114 deals listed) and TravelFree’s global roundup, emphasize a few practical tactics:
- Decide your priorities early. Know whether you’re chasing a beach all-inclusive, a city break, a ski week or a small-group tour before you dive into the sales.
- Compare direct vs OTA pricing. Sometimes Booking.com / Expedia win; other times the hotel or airline’s own site is cheaper or includes better perks (resort credits, breakfast, flexible cancellation).
- Watch booking and travel windows. Many of the best offers must be booked by early December 2025 but allow travel through late 2026 or even 2027.
- Read the fine print. NerdWallet and AARP both stress checking for blackout dates, non-refundable rates, resort fees and stricter cancellation rules on promo fares.
If you’re flexible on dates and destinations and ready to book quickly, Black Friday 2025 is one of the strongest windows in years to lock in discounted travel—whether that means a budget week in the sun, a bucket-list safari or a deeply reduced resort stay.
