Fall is a great time to travel and take advantage of money-saving deals. The summer is over and the kids are back in school. Therefore, many family resorts offer discounted rates on vactation packages to lure families in.
Consider beach resorts for a fall get-a-way. These see their business flourish in the spring and summer due to the warm weather, but also have to fill rooms during the off-season. To accomplish this task they will often offer packages in which rooms are discounted 50% off or more. Look for resorts with indoor amenities as well a outdoor ones since the weather can be unpredictable in the fall.
The Caribbean and Mexico are also good choices for fall travel. The weather is still warm and the summer crowd has diminished. Restorts in these locations offer discounts for family vacations that may cost double the price in the peak season.
If cruising "floats your boat", October can be a great time of year to travel. National Cruise Vacation Week is October 21-27. According to Cruising.org, this week is the largest consumer vacation promotion in the travel industry. Many cruise lines offer amazing discounts to promote cruise vacations during this week in October.
