[quote=Anonymous]Even pre Covid we’d mostly stopped staying in hotels unless necessary because the logistics of small kids and bedtime and sharing hotel rooms never appealed to me. We mostly do air bnbs and I’ve never paid $500 a night for that.

Our HHI is between $350-400.

We are mostly limited by vacation time and needing to visit a set of long distance parents each and days off to cover school days off.

In a normal year we take one long distance flight to ILs, that trip with 4 cross country flights and a rental car typically runs us $3-$5k depending on how $$ flights are that year.

The drive to my parents is nominal cost-wise, but it does take up our vacation time.

Then we usually manage one actual family vacation per year and we’ve mostly stayed domestic to date since our youngest was not even 5 when Covid shut everything down. We’ve done Maine, Boston, Williamsburg, and FL. This year we plan to do Chicago. Those trips have ranged from $2k (Williamsburg) to $6k (Boston).

So around $10k annually. If we ever manage to get to an international trip, I’d expect to spend closer to $20k on travel those years. [/quote]
