Autumn's Bounty on the Beach
Fall Beach Sale Offers $100-Off Vacation Packages Booked By November 23, 2008

CHICAGO, Sept. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- For many, Labor Day marks the unofficial
passing of summertime splendor. But research by CheapTickets
(http://www.cheaptickets.com) suggests that fall is an ideal time to enjoy
sun, sand and surf. The leading online travel company that knows, "the less
you pay, the better it feels(SM)," reveals its Fall 2008 Off-Season Deals
Report, identifying 10 U.S. and Caribbean beaches offering bountiful savings
this fall. The report -- a detailed hotel pricing analysis -- is available at
http://offseason.cheaptickets.com. Key findings include:
-- Savings upwards of 40 percent in Florida, where Fort Lauderdale, Miami
and Orlando claim three of the top 10 best beach spots.
-- Significant savings in popular Western states, including California
and Hawaii.
-- Deep hotel discounts for those exploring Caribbean hotspots such as
Puerto Rico and Mexico. Travelers can expect to pay up to 28 percent less
than during the high-season.
Making a fall beach getaway further affordable, CheapTickets has
introduced its Fall Beach Sale, offering $100-off qualifying flight + hotel
packages of four or more nights using the promotional code FALLBEACH100.
Travelers must book by November 23, 2008 for travel through March 31, 2009.(1)
"As fall kicks into gear, warm-weather destinations look to replace the
strong business they enjoyed during the summertime," said Marita Hudson
Thomas, from the CheapTickets' Cheap Squad(SM). "It's an excellent season for
travelers to enjoy a quieter stay on the beach, with fewer crowds and lower
prices in exchange for a slight dip in temperature."
