Take Off for Tahitiby Michele Cheplic | More from this Blogger 05 Aug 2008 04:16 PM And you thought Hawaii was the only tropical oasis with gentle breezes, endless blue horizons and lush, rugged landscapes. If you have ever visited French Polynesia you know that cobalt blue waters and powder soft sand beaches are just as abundant there and right now (in some cases) it's cheaper to travel to Tahiti, Moorea and Bora Bora than it is to jet off to the 50th State. If you are looking for a bargain to paradise check out the following deals that combine airfare and lodging to popular Society Island destinations. The catch: To take advantage of the package prices you must book by August 21, 2008 and travel must be complete by March 27, 2009.
