In this article, Eastern Editor George Bush outlines five trips based on more travel-wise planning-- selective itineraries, off-season touring, and periodic stops for relaxing. The diagrammed schedules, which fit three-week excursion flights, are flexible minimum-time suggestions. Your travel agent or air-line representative can tailor them to your family's needs.
