September is cheap! Very, very, cheap.

Can't say what the deals are like from the US but from Canada September is the cheapest time of year to travel to the Caribbean.

On the outside chance that you can get yourself to Toronto an all-inclusive, last minute package deal from Toronto will run you anywhere from $500-$700 Canadian Dollars, taxes included, You'll find similar prices from Montreal too.

For example if you look at http://www.itravel2000.com for Sept 9th, prices start at $1341.80 CND for two (taxes in) for an all inclusive. So airfare, hotel, all your drinks and food for about $600 USD per person, hard to beat that but It could be even less if you can wait and book really last minute - IE book Thursday for a Sunday departure you'll get it for even less.

Best September cheap travel advice - book really late and check the site below for tropical storms/hurricanes before you book:

http://www.wunderground.com/tropical/

Summary: cheapest times are when there is the most inventory, they are:

1. September - kids are back in school and families don't travel + people are afraid of hurricanes

2. May - kids aren't out of school yet and the weather in the US and Canada is starting to warm up/be warm.

An earlier poster made a point about middle of summer being good - it's generally not as cheap as you would think for two reasons. 1. North American demand is higher because families travel and there are events like weddings and honeymoons. 2. Europeans travel a lot in August and demand from places like Germany and Italy is way, way up. Demand for rooms can be as high in August as it is in January.

Have fun good luck and don't worry about Hurricanes, despite what CNN says, the chances of you getting hit are rare.

Damn it that's a lot of typing for two points!

try lastminute.com,, they do some really good priced holidays on there,, i have been to Dominica Republic twice now, and you get good weather most of the time,, Sept to March price is reasonable, depends on what type of hotel accomodation you want,, try looking at Club Ameigo its all inclusive and well worth it!!

The cheapest season to go there is November,December $115 per person and Holy week in April. It can be up to $200. I recommend April because you will enjoy the weather and the beach is prettier at that time because the waves arent hard.

goodluck finding sumtin cheap for dominican...

beautiful island though...

The cheapest time to visit the Caribbean is usually directly in the middle of the summer due to the heat and it being in the hurricane season. The peak season is usually when we (the US) are in our winter because it's still warm in the D.R. during that time (I was there last October and the weather was more than perfect) and people are willing to pay more to get away from the cold.

Go to Orbitz.com and search for all inclusive packages, they usually have a great selection that includes airfare as well.


..
CHEAPEST TIME TO TRAVEL HERE AND PUERTO RICO SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER AS THESE ARE THE SLOWEST MONTHS IN THEIR OFF OR LOW SEASON. THE THE FORUMS AT
WWW.TRIPADVISOR.COM
ARE VERY INFORMATIVE
GOOD LUCK,
DODA

summertime is usually pretty cheap... off season

I went for 4 nights all inclusive and it was about $550 (including airfare)


sweetthangkari
typically the cheapest time of the year to travel to tropical locations is the off-season. Like any time that isn't the summer. try travel sites that you can enter dates....like Nov or Dec to the Dominican Republic prolly would be the cheapest.

dont go its horrid,, go barbados instead


stdaveuk
Trust me..don't go !

There are so many hotels being shut down with health and bug scares all the time !

For the same price, you can go to Cuba, which is a lot nicer, and cleaner.

Or how about Mexico ! Give that a go !

Now will be the cheapest time to go, as it's classed as hurricane season !

Good luck if you decide on Dominican republic !
