As far as we know, nobody really plans special trips in honor of Leap Day. But that isn't stopping hotels and airlines from offering discounts on or around Feb. 29—a day that's on the calendar only once every four years, during leap years.

Earlier in the month, JetBlue offered a short-lived promotion with $29 flights for departures on Monday, Feb. 29. And while that deal has since expired, there are many hotels and booking sites pumping up sales timed to coincide with Leap Day. In some cases, getting the special rates requires that your trip actually takes place over Feb. 29, but in other instances you simply need to make reservations on Feb. 29 to snag the low prices—and travel can happen any time over the next few weeks or months.

Art Hotel: Get 29% off the normal room rate for stays on Feb. 29 at this trendy hotel in Denver.

Destination Hotels: Make reservations on Feb. 29 to receive 29% (or more) off room rates in the weeks ahead, and/or $29 daily credits at this group's hotels, which include locations in Snowmass, Colo., San Francisco, and New Orleans.

Expedia: Make a hotel reservation with the Expedia app on or before Feb. 29 and you'll save 29% at select properties worldwide.
