If you are one of the lucky few who can be flexible in vacation
travel, taking fall vacations can be a great bargain for you.
There are a number of special things going on to capatalize on
plus summer venues still looking for the last of the tourist
dollar.
Top summer destinations are usually great fall bargains. The
weather can still be gorgeious and the crowds gone. Take a look
at Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard during this time. Hawaii is
typically a bargain in September. The summer crowds clear out
and there are a few months before the holiday crowds start to
come in.
Look to Europe during this time, too. Many cities emptying out
from the summer tourist crush are still hungry for visitors.
Weather can be great and look for speacial deals on packages
that combine airfare, hotel and transfers plus a tour or two.
Colder European destinations can be a special bargain and look
for great deals to Russia and Scandinavia around this time of
year.
For other ideas look to respositioning cruises. This is when
cruises lines move their ships around to follow the sun. Most
people want to cruise to the warmest, most pleasant regions of
the world. Ships float and therefore they can pick up and just
move from one side of the world to another to follow the sun.
Most Alaska, Europe, Mediterranean and Bermuda cruises, for
instance, are offered in the summer when the weather is the best
in those regions. For cruises to South America, the preferred
time is winter (our winter, when it’s summertime in the southern
hemisphere). The Caribbean is warm year-round, though since
hurricane season stretches from June through November, the
optimal time to cruise the islands is winter and spring, though
many ships are there year-round. In Asia, since much of the
cruising region is near or just north of the equator, temps are
very warm year round, though the wintertime months are slightly
more comfortable.
To be in all of these places at the right time, ships reposition
from one region to another, typically between seasons, during
the months of September and October and April and May. These
one-off oddball itineraries are called repositioning cruises and
they’re often deeply discounted because most don’t include a
whole lot of port calls. Many are two to three weeks in length,
with a long, lazy stretch at sea crossing the Atlantic, Pacific
or Indian oceans — perfect for people who don’t need too much
action, though many lines feature guest lecturers and special
entertainment and activities revolving around music, food, wine
or other topics.
You’ll find some repositioning cruises that don’t include
crossing over vast oceans and therefore offer more ports of call
– for example, when ships move between the Caribbean and New
England/Canada, stopping at points on the eastern coast of the
US along the way. There are a slew of options.
Get the most for your dollar and travel in the fall! See you on
the road

The above poster referring to the bus trips is dead right, but it can be challenging to work that out for yourself. It's a lot easier to check in to a youth hostel, then ask them to make the arrangements. I'm providing a link to a great place to stay where the staff will provide that service for you, and also a place to stay when you return. Highly recommended!

Question is not very clear….Can you rephrase it?
Costa Rica would be beautiful! Greece is a great choice as well (I'm planning to live there). Also, a cruise would be a ton of fun! You can go to a different country while on one and stop off at ports, take tours of the area, and learn about the history or go shopping. Cruises usually stop 8 times, but it depends on how long you stay. Have a fun time!
Well I'm from Jamaica and I work in the tourist industry. Winter and Summer seasons are usually the 'peak seasons'. I wouldn't say the prices are higher during this time though because there are a number of specials being offered. It is usually the off-peak seasons when the hotels don't have much 'people traffic' that the prices seem higher as there aren't much deals being offered. Normally the best time to recieve good deals are between December and April.
For example, I work at the Half Moon Resort and Spa in Montego Bay. For the winter season, we currently have a 'Winter Escape Package'. This package will run from Jan. 5th – April 17th. During this period, if you stay a minimum of 5 Nights you and receive:
– $200 Resort Credit per room
– Daily breakfast for fully paid adults,
– Round trip airport transfers
Plus:
– Kids under 12 Stay Free with Daily breakfast when sharing room with 2 parents (maximum 2 children)
– 50% off any meal plan for children under 12 years of age
– Special Single Parent rate. (Single rate with children under 12 years old, maximum 2 children)
Blackout dates:
February 14 – 22, 2007.
You can check out the specific rates at our website which is http://www.halfmoon.com. We also offer several offer packages to suit your needs.
See you in Jamaica soon
