Labor Day is typically the last hurrah of summer, and many people are no doubt getting bummed that the official end of summer comes just 19 days after that. But there is an upside to summer ending: cheaper airfares for fall and winter travel (holiday travel notwithstanding) = saving a chuck of cash while roaming around the world, so to speak.

This week, the deal experts at Fly.com have found numerous great airfares for fall and winter travel, with destinations that include major and popular U.S. destinations, as well as unexpected (Abu Dhabi, anyone?) and expected (escape winter and fly to Peru and enjoy their summer!) international destinations.
