Around 28% of Americans plan to take a vacation between Labor Day and Thanksgiving this year, according to AAA.

Many people consider traveling during the fall to be a best kept secret. AAA found that Americans say there are three top benefits of taking a fall trip:

  • Fewer crowds and children: 68%
  • Weather that is more favorable: 63%
  • The opportunity to find better value for the cost of their trip: 55%

“Savvy travelers can often find lower prices on everything from airfare and hotels to cruises and vacation packages, as travel companies offer incentives to fill their vacancies during the fall,” said Bill Sutherland, AAA senior vice president, Travel and Publishing.
