(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ON -- (Marketwired) -- 08/26/15 -- While the official first day of fall is almost a month away, Labour Day and the unofficial end of summer are coming up fast. But who says the end of summer has to mean the end of vacation time? In fact, the travel experts at , the champions of simple travel search, are here to remind you that shoulder season is one of the best times to travel. Get ready to stretch your summer and your travel budget with our tips and advice on .
Lower prices on flights and hotels, more availability, fewer lines, no traffic -- all good reasons to consider travelling during this sweet spot between the peak travel and low travel seasons. Here are some tips from Cheapflights.ca on how to take advantage of this special travel time along with some ideas on where to go:
That is when the flood of vacationers evaporates. (Keep in mind there is usually a major burst of vacation travel in the week or two before school starts to fill the post summer camp gap.)
In Florida, many kids head back to school in mid-August, leaving the beaches open midweek while summer is still in full swing in many places. Thinking of a European adventure? Know, for example, that the school year starts later in Spain than it does in the U.K., so tourist spots will empty earlier than local beaches and cities. But also be aware of "half term", when U.K. students get a week break in early to mid-October.
Everything from currency fluctuations to weather patterns can shape the popularity (and price) of a destination. And, if you are considering a trip to a storm-prone locale, think about investing some of the savings from the seasonal discount into trip insurance. Or be ready to switch dates -- something most airlines allow when there are major weather issues. (You will need to read the fine print when booking your hotel stay.)
Between-season lulls are when airlines, hotels and package travel companies are apt to offer sudden discounts and sales rather than have an inventory of unfilled seats and rooms.
