In other words, it feels a bit like summer in the mind’s eye. Yet this destination continues to buzz even as winter falls.

Today, I am comparing and discussing cheap flights on both. Both of these airlines are considered “low cost carriers” and fly to and from major leisure destinations without having to connect through a hub city which is sometimes referred to as “point to point” flying.

Newly added VOD platforms include: Pluto, Premo, Tubi, LocalNow, Glewed TV and Distro TV.  What was once known as the “honeymoon capital of the world” has evolved into a full on family destination. We’re talking about visiting the Pocono Mountains! If you’ve never been, it’s a quick drive from New York City, Philadelphia, D.C. and other bigger cities on the East Coast. Many go there as an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. In the Poconos, you’ll be greeted by mountains and valleys, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, hiking trails, and wildlife. When you dig a little deeper, you’ll start to learn of the area’s rich history in railroads, coal, and agriculture. For families, it can be a fun and enriching experience for all ages.
