SOUTH PADRE ISLAND — Chad Hart’s voice is hoarse after a 34-hour shift organizing Spring Break events on South Padre Island for his business, Inertia Tours.

Inertia offers seven-night Spring Break packages that include lodging, meals and a schedule of parties for $400 per person.

With several of the Island’s largest hotels closed and others struggling to fill rooms by late February, the early indication was Spring Break 2009 would flop, but you wouldn’t hear such talk from Hart.

“I won’t rest until the end of April,” Hart said. “And right now I have a group of spring breakers in front of my office waiting to check in.”

Hart says he won’t know until this year’s sales are counted, but he expects to top 5,000 packages sold, up from roughly 4,000 in 2008.

In fact, Inertia sales for Texas Week, usually the busiest week during Spring Break on SPI, surpassed 2008 sales.

“My sales are up 35 percent,” Hart said. “It seemed there were true people here on vacation instead of people just doing laps on the strip.”

In February, the South Padre Island Convention and Visitors Bureau indicated that it was anticipating a weak economy would take a toll on students.

The CVB projected 40,000 college students would take their Spring Break vacation on SPI, down from 60,000 in 2008.

On Monday, an upbeat Dan Quandt, executive director of the South Padre Island CVB, said while the overall number of visitors doesn’t look like it will surpass the CVB’s early estimate, Spring Break 2009 should be considered a success.

“Of course, there are some students who’ve yet to arrive,” Quandt said. “But all in all I’d say we did pretty good, probably better than last year.”

Prior to the arrival of students, many Island businesses were concerned what affect the economic recession at home and escalating violence on the border with Mexico would have on students.

Hotel occupancy numbers, sales tax totals and liquor sales won’t be published until April. Until then most seem content with this year’s turnout even if there were fewer spring breakers.

“It went OK,” said Daniel Salazar, general manager of the Isla Grande Beach Resort, formerly the Radisson Resort. “We had about 90 percent occupancy for Texas Week. That’s a little down from last year, but nothing drastic.”

The Isla Grande Beach Resort features one of the Island’s biggest attractions with the Coca Cola Beach, which pulls daily crowds between 12,000 and 18,000.

The Coca Cola Beach wraps up later this week, but Salazar and his staff have already turned their attention to conventioneers.

“The mood is still Spring Break, but I’ve done a 180,” Salazar said. “The posters have come down and most of the students are gone. My focus is now on conferences.”

spring break wet t shirt contest

Yes, at our Sunday Night party you will see our infamous best in the west wet t shirt contest in South Padre Island Spring Break. However, most of our parties concentrate on the meet & greet atmosphere such as our Rehaab @ the Pool at the Isla Grand Resort on Wednesday nights. For spring break 2010, our biggest weeks of spring break we can absolutely assure you of over 3,000 college students partying with Inertia Tours.

Here is what the party looks like:

The best reason to book a south padre spring break travel package with Inertia Tours is that our firm “puts it all together” meaning we combine accommodations, dine out meals, parties, and a safe social atmosphere of college students partying together on a tropical island in Texas.

Texas is a much easier “sell” to the parentals than something say in Mexico or the Caribbean as it’s that much safer being here in the US.

Inertia has trip packages priced between $300 for a basic condo to around $500 for going all out at the wonderful Saida Towers South Padre. Are there knockoffs trying to emulate / copy our product? Yes. Will you be disappointed if you book that? Yes. Travel is NOT the same – it’s not a commodity. For example, our week long vacations include 14 dine around meals. However, imagine if you saw a trip $5.00 cheaper per person, and that trip seemed just like Inertia’s – it too, had 14 meals. However, instead of going to a sit down restaurant with 3 to 5 choices off a special student menu, you are forced to go to fast food. See the difference? Travel is NOT a commodity like airfare is. (with that said, Continental and Southwest are in fact much better airlines in my opinion than American or Delta – you don’t know that unless you travel alot, or you end up having flight problems, then oh boyyy is there a difference. Same goes with Inertia.

Let us take the guesswork out of putting together a bad ass vacation. We don’t fuck around when it comes to throwing some of the biggest parties in the world on spring break in South Padre Island, either.

Inertia Chad…OUT!!!

We will tell you how!

The Basics:

* Consider a road trip within the US to South Padre Island, Texas – Panama City Beach, Florida or if you like to ski, Breckenridge Colorado. Skipping the flight saves you $300 to $500 alone – and cars these days are reliable. Road trips with condos, meals, & parties are under $500 per person total price.

*Book as soon as possible. Spring Break Travel Agencies like http://www.inertiatours.com or http://www.collegeskipackages.com have deals where you put $150 down per person (which comes off the price of the trip) and you can make monthly payments on the balance for 5 or 6 months making the trips affordable. Getting a last minute spring break trip deal is not realistic, and only fools think that will work. As hotels & airlines fill up, they raise rates!

*Book as a group if possible. The more people you have, the more people you have splitting up the cost of the condo, the lower the cost. Talk to people – spread the word.

The Good Girl Way:

1.) Your Part Time Job
If you already have a part time job and are working, say 15 hours a week for $10 / hour (easy math, use a calculator here) bump your hours up just 4 per week. That’s $40/week extra, or $160 per month. If you book your spring break trip in September, consider this. Book a $500 trip to South Padre Spring Break, and you’d have a balance of $350 due, or $85/month.

This is great news! Your 4 hours a week extra will not only make the payment, you’ll stockpile $160-$85/month = $75/month x 4 months = $300 for spending money – and it won’t effect any of your other spending!

2.) Christmas or Birthday present or money from these events
Ask for half of your spring break package to get covered as a Christmas present. Obviously, we all get to ask for something for Christmas – ask for a trip!

3.) Sign up as a Campus Rep and promote the trips on your campus
If you get 14 people to sign up with a company like http://www.springbreakpackages.com, for every 14 trips you sell, you earn a free trip. If you & your friends are going, someone has to plan the trip anyway. You volunteer, and the tour company will compensate you for that

The bad girl ways:

1.) Use your student loan money
You’re only in college once, and you have your whole life to worry about “working” and “money” or the “bad economy.” Take out a tad extra on your student loan, or cancel a class if your parents pay for your school and take the money to pay for the trip. It’s less than $500 anyway

2.) Tell your friend to sign you up & offer to pay later
They pay your $150 deposit, and when it comes time to pay them back, play dumb. Offer to pay the balance & still go, but that you can’t come up with the deposit right now – but never do. Is this wrong? Yes. We said this was the bad girl way to go!

3.) Use your credit card
You can then spread the cost of the trip out over a full year. Sure, you’ll pay interest, but you’re already paying interest on gas, beer, etc. you put on it, a vacation for spring break is an experience that’ll last a lifetime

While this list isn’t exhaustive, we hope it’s helpful to you. Please contact us toll free 800 821 2176 or email us info@inertiatours.com if you need some advice.

With travel, you get EXACTLY what you pay for. There is no magic wand you wave and get 96% off your spring break trip, or all inclusive all the time at a 5 star hotel for $750. Sorry, we had that deal. In 1992.

We have 4 specific spring break packages under $500/person with no hidden fees nor games. Does that price include airfare? No, dipstick, it doesn’t, you have to drive UNLESS we are talking about the Mazatlan Spring Break Party Bus trip – that has the bus included.

Inertia Chad…OUT!!!

Inertia Tours has it for Spring Break 2010. Puerto Vallarta Spring Break when put together by us represents the ultimate luxurious spring break trip. Here is why:

*Puerto Vallarta lacks ANY high school kids on spring break
*Puerto Vallarta (PV) has amongst the nicest hotels in Mexico
*Hand down, PV has the best food at restaurants
*Instead of crappy rail booze at all you can drink parties, you’ll find in Puerto Vallarta that the drinks are made at the bar with real liquor they pour
*Weather -it’s balmy in the high 80′s and very humid
*Side trips are of 100% FIRST CLASS quality – built for adult tastes, not stripped out for students
*Our lead hotel, the Canto Del Sol, is in a perfect location, with SPECTACULAR 2 bedrooms suites that can hold 8 girls, have a kitchen, and are definite 5 star inside – only Inertia has these units at this hotel on the beach.

The Canto del Sol is THE perfect spring break hotel in Puerto Vallarta, with strictly all inclusive with all meals & drinks included right at the hotel, and very good.

How much Chad?

$1400/person roughly. Remember, you’ll get what you pay for, and by getting SUCH a nice hotel, you will spend alot less as you will actually enjoy the hotel’s food & drink. I highly recommend going to Puerto Vallarta for spring break this year….call me 800 821 2176 or email me chad@inertiatours.com if you’d like the down low info on PV.

Inertia Chad…OUT!!!

*Trips under $500/person that are incredible
*over 30,000 students on one 3 mile area of island
*Inertia parties = INCREDIBLY – 5,000 people certain nights
*Meals – included, and American = no pepto bismo
*Condos = we have HUGE units that can sleep up to 10 people
*Side Trips – unlike Florida, South Padre Island actually has things to do, like an included booze cruise & pub crawl or surfing lessons – all with your Inertia package

No hesitation, Inertia IS South Padre Island Spring Break 2010. Facebook Inertiachad for a personalized package set up for YOU and your group, not some cookie cutter package off the internet.
