To start, consider transportation fees. For example, if you're driving, fill up the gas tank before traveling on the highway, where it's much costlier, says Clarky Davis, a personal finance expert. And make sure your car is in good condition by checking your heating vents, keeping up with routine maintenance and ensuring your tires are properly inflated, all of which help the ear achieve favorable fuel economy. Furthermore, not only does a tow car(救援车) cause inconvenience; it also means extra costs.
For those opting to fly, first, be aware of how much it costs to check a bag. Most airlines are charging for every checked bag by weight, but prices vary from carrier to carrier. If you can manage to pack everything into a carry-on, you'll save at least $15. Brooke Ferencsik, a travel expert, suggests considering secondary airports when booking your flight. These airports often are less crowded and frequently offer cheaper tickets.
And when it comes to your actual destination, don't assume that hotels are going to cut back on fees simply because they're desperate to draw customers. "They won't be adding or increasing fees, but they won't be decreasing them either," says Ferencsik. The best defense against extra fees is to read about the hotel's rates online, before you make a reservation. "Be aware of surcharges for everything from housekeeping to groundskeeping to use of the in-room safe," says Ferenesik. Some hotels even install a sensor(传感器) within the mini bar, charging guests for simply touching the items, let alone eating or drinking them.
"From airlines to hotels to rental ears, they've all got hidden fees you need to be aware of," says Ferencsik. "Do your homework and ask questions."

B．accept hidden costs while traveling with family and friends
C．travel with family and friends during the holiday season

Their T-shirts said it all :"We're floating."
Virgin Blue president for life Sir Richard Branson, chief executive Brett Godfrey and major shareholder Chris Corrigan of Patrick Corporation on Tuesday kicked off one of the year's biggest Australian share market floats.
With optimism and a few well aimed swipes at Qantas, the trio, who halfway through the media briefing took off their shirts to reveal their "we're floating" slogans, outlined the $A500 million-plus float.
Virgin Blue is the owner of Pacific Blue which set up base in Christchurch in September and will start flights to Brisbane on January 29 and to Melbourne on March 4.
On a podium surrounded by six Virgin Blue hostesses, Branson confessed "it seems a little unreal".
"Three years ago in August 2000, Virgin Blue had 300 start-up staff, two red jets and it was one exciting moment in Australian aviation history," he said.
"Three years ago Geoff Dixon of Qantas publicly warned us to keep out, saying— 'there are no rivers of gold in Australia'."
The Brisbane-based airline now employs around 3,000 people; the Company has 28% of the total domestic market share and 40 new aircraft, operating 37 routes.
The carrier has also seen off rivals Ansett and Impulse, the effects of September 11 and a rising Australian dollar and yet still managed to make a profit.
Branson said he was pleased the Australian traveling public and employees will now have the chance to build the airline.
"We're delighted to have them sailing with us in Australia's golden rivers," he said.
The airline will be valued at $A2.3 billion when it's floated, making the major shareholders and many of the senior management at Virgin Blue multi-millionaires.
While the trio were understandably shy in putting a figure on their wealth, Branson will get tens of millions for the sale of his shares and still have a $A730 million stake in the company.
Godfrey's share holdings when the company is floated will be worth around $A78 million.
But as Branson said: "Without Brett there wouldn't be an airline."
"Yes, he will do well out of it. He deserves it." Characteristically while Branson and Godfrey took centre stage Corrigan, looking the least comfortable of the trio in a T-shirt, kept a low profile.
"I didn't expect to get any questions," he said smiling. "I'm just here for my good looks." After toughing it out in negotiations with Branson on share holding restrictions, Patrick Corporation will sit on a paper profit of $A780 million from a $A260 million investment.
What is implied about the scope of business of Qantas？
A．Fashion design.
B．Dealing with stocks
C．Airlines
D．Shipping
