We're in "Shoulder Season" — Here's How It Can Help You Save on Travel

Some destinations don't see much of a slow season in the Fall (everyone wants to see Central Park once the leaves begin to turn), so it's important to research the destination beforehand to find out if they are in fact in shoulder season. You can do this by utilizing travel sites to compare rates in the Summer and Fall to see if there has been a noticeable drip in price. National parks, coastlines, many European destinations, and cities that mostly rely on family travel are usually pretty solid bets.
