September is considered the start of shoulder season for much of the United States (with the exception of Labor Day), which means that major airlines, hotels, resorts, and even local restaurants and venues offer special deals on accommodations, dining, and experiences to entice more travelers as the summer rush starts to end. Many events are celebrated to mark the changing of the seasons, celebrating fall with music, food, and family-friendly events.
