The Daily Getaways promotion is returning as of today (Monday, April 15, 2024), and could potentially offer some awesome discounted travel opportunities. I wanted to post a reminder of all the deals we can expect to see over the next three weeks. I won’t otherwise be writing about this offer, so mark your calendar if there’s any package you’re interested in buying.
What is Daily Getaways?
Daily Getaways is a promotion that’s run by the US Travel Association, which is intended to encourage tourism within the United States. This has historically been offered once per year, except for a brief break during the pandemic.
Daily Getaways partners with major hotel groups, rental car companies, theme parks, etc., to offer discounted travel packages. These promotions come in different forms, from vouchers for travel experiences, to points packages, to discounted gift cards.
When is Daily Getaways returning?
The Daily Getaways promotion is available this year over three weeks, between Monday, April 15, 2024, and Wednesday, May 1, 2024. To access the deals, simply visit the Daily Getaways website each weekday at 1PM ET, which is when the offers go live.

Are Daily Getaways deals worth it?
Back in the day, participating in Daily Getaways was almost unarguably worth it. The program had amazing deals, and there wasn’t that much competition for the packages. However, over the years the value proposition has worsened a bit.
Not only did some of the best deals become less valuable, but competition for the better promotions has increased significantly.
Looking at the first week of deals, the cost to buy Hilton Honors points and IHG One Rewards points is in line with the cost you’d pay if you purchased points directly through the programs during a promotion. Meanwhile in week three, it’ll be possible to buy World of Hyatt points — that can be a great deal, though the catch is that it’s more like a raffle than a promotion, based on how quickly the packages sell out.
So it’s always worth keeping an eye on what’s available, but I wouldn’t be planning any travel around this just yet.
Bottom line
The Daily Getaways promotion is returning, and it’s worth understanding the deals that are available. When it comes to hotel points, you’ll be able to make purchases with Best Western Rewards, Choice Privileges, Hilton Honors, IHG One Rewards, and World of Hyatt.
