NEW YORK, Aug. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Travelzoo (Nasdaq: TZOO), a global Internet media company, has published a list of late summer and Labor Day deals, making it easy and affordable to take a quick getaway before the summer ends.

"For those travelers who have been holding out on booking summer travel or for those who are interested in taking an additional trip, now is the time to take advantage of the huge savings we're seeing across all travel segments," said Gabe Saglie, senior editor, Travelzoo. "We're seeing great deals for all destinations, even in what is traditionally a high season. For example, Travelzoo is discovering discounts on 4 and 5-star hotels, many of which are over half off. Travelers can't afford to miss out."

The following are just a few of the amazing deals Travelzoo's team of deal experts identified as offering exceptional value during this Labor Day:

Great Golf Escape: The Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort and Club, ranked one of the "World's Best Resorts" in 2008 by Travel + Leisure is offering rooms for up to half off regular rates. Travelers can stay at this luxurious resort for just $99 per night. To further sweeten the deal, guests will receive a free round of golf per day, complimentary GPS on all carts, use of private club lockers, free meals for children under 5 and a $30 credit towards a bottle of wine. The free golf alone is over $100 in added value per person.

Labor Day Luxury: The new $335 million InterContinental Montelucia Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, Ariz., is offering a $95 per night special. This deal is $100 off the regular price and includes a daily $25 resort credit and a free upgrade to a Kasbah Village Poolside Room or Oasis Village Room.

Dinner Cruises: Enjoy a hot summer night on onboard a Spirit Dinner Cruise starting from $29. This deal is valid for 8 cities and is available any day of the week through October. This is a 33 percent savings from regular ticket prices. We have found this deal is also valid for lunch cruises, sunset cruises and smooth jazz moonlight cruises in certain cities.

Fly South for the End of Summer: Looking for a little Latin flair? Spend a 4-night long weekend getaway in Rio de Janeiro. Gate 1 Travel's $599 package deal includes roundtrip airfare from New York, four nights accommodation at the Savoy Othon Travel Hotel and daily breakfast. Usually airfare alone costs as much as this air and hotel package!
