Arlington has long been a top summer vacation destination thanks to Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, the Rangers Ballpark at Arlington, and lots more, but this year the city is promoting another good reason to vacation in the Metroplex: the “Staycation.” With the price of gas and food on the upswing, vacation budgets are being pinched…but can still go a long way when you vacation close to home.
The Package: The Arlington Convention & Visitors Bureau has come up with the Staycation Central Package. The Staycation Central package allows guests to choose their dates and from a myriad of hotel options, ranging from budget to full-service.
The package comes with coupons, a free visitors guide, a map and more information about Arlington and its incredible vacation values. The only way to buy a three-day Six Flags Over Texas park pass, which is interchangeable between Six Flags and Six Flags Hurricane Harbor is with a package on http://www.arlington.org.
Price: Vacation packages start at only $59 a night, quad occupancy, two-night minimum stay, based on availability.
