SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 1999--

With reservation requests and bookings for Millennium-season vacations gaining momentum, Classic Custom Vacations (www.classiccustomvacations.com) is ready with a variety of vacation options in Hawaii, North America and Europe.

Travelers can savor the Millennium and experience the beauty of Hawaii at more than 60 of the finest island properties including Hyatt Regency Maui, Sheraton Princess Kailuani, Outrigger Kauai Beach Resort and Aston Kaanapali Shores. There are vacations available at a number of different properties on every island. Accommodations range from standard to deluxe with land-only prices starting at $279 per person for five nights at the Outrigger Village on Oahu.

While other destinations have significant price increases for the Millennium. Hawaii is maintaining its "Aloha Spirit" and in most cases Millennium rates show reasonably modest increases averaging 25% higher than the same time period in 1998. Along with great value, the islands of Hawaii offer diverse culture and incredible beauty. Each island is unique with a geography, history and personality of its own. In addition to beautiful weather and spacious beaches, many hotels are offering children's programs and other special holiday features.

For those who want to experience the dawn of the next Millennium closer to Times Square and perhaps witness the drop of 2000's crystal ball, Classic has a variety of tempting New York vacations available. From Manhattan's Waldorf Astoria, a landmark of elegance and style conveniently located on Park Avenue, to the Marriott Marquis, just minutes from the Theater District and Fifth Avenue shopping, Classic has "New York, New York" very well covered. Land only prices for Manhattan Millennium vacations start at $1,270 per person for four nights at the New York Hilton.

Greet the "Pacific Century" with a Classic Custom Vacations West Coast Millennium experience. The Coronado Island Marriott Resort, perfectly situated on San Diego Bay's scenic waterfront, is available for just $666 per personal for three nights (land only).

Always on culture's cutting edge, Italy promises to be a festive place to ring in the next century. A pair of suggestions for celebrating the Millennium in Italy include Rome where Classic is offering 3 nights at the elegant Lord Byron Hotel including a full day customized city tour for $845 per person, and Florence where Classic is offering 3 nights at the deluxe Hotel Regency including a full day customized tour for $824 per person.

Although Millennium hotel space is available, rooms are filling quickly. Air space is extremely tight and minimum stay requirements are in place at most hotels. Travel agents should be prepared with a credit card to leave a deposit for their clients at the time of booking.
