The website's brand-new Holiday Travel Center offers travel tips, gift ideas and holiday deals sure to make even the Grinch smile.

While many media outlets are forecasting gloom and doom on the nation's roads and in its airports, IndependentTraveler.com says "bah humbug" to that -- and offers five reasons to feel cheerful about traveling during the holidays.

Over the river and through the woods
Lower fuel costs nationwide have created favorable conditions for car travel, making it cheaper and easier to get to turkey dinner with the family.

Jingle all the way
Savvy travelers can avoid crowds at the airport by leaving a day earlier or flying during off-peak hours.

12 days of Christmas
With the major holidays falling on Mondays, travelers may find reduced airport crowds and delays between Christmas and New Year's this holiday season.

Oh, what fun it is to fly!
With more direct flights to choose from, dashing through the snow just got easier. The benefits? Direct flights on popular routes decrease the risk of lost luggage, delays and missed connections.

Jack Frost won’t be nipping at your nose
The weather outside won’t be as frightful as in previous years, according to NOAA forecasts.
