Travel analysts at Expedia.com, one of the world’s largest full-service online travel sites, examined savings to popular “shoulder season” destinations such as the Caribbean, Mexico and Hawaii. On average, U.S. travelers can save 13% on travel to Hawaii, 12% on travel to Mexico and 11% on travel to the Caribbean this fall. Shoulder season is the period between off-season and high-season, when good deals and good weather often meet.
Focusing on the top ten origin markets in the United States, including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Houston, the team analyzed differences in airline average ticket prices and hotel average daily rates in this upcoming shoulder season (September 1 – October 31, 2015) versus the summer high season (June 1 – August 31, 2015) to Miami, Hawaii, Mexico and the Caribbean.
“Fall is in ideal time to save on travel to some of American’s favorite domestic and international beach destinations,” says Expedia Senior Editor Ingrid Belobradic. “As a bonus, sizzling temperatures cool off to a more bearable degree.”
