In the era of staycations, Clark wants to challenge you to find fall travel deals. They're certainly going to be out there. In fact, fall air travel should be more pleasant than in recent years. You may see up to 15% fewer travelers because of the reductions in flights and the emphasis on staycations.

Fewer air passengers also means better deals on accommodations, especially in the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America. Even fancy hotels may start offering deals to encourage traffic.

Package trips will be a deal too. With air service being cut to Orlando and Las Vegas, you can try looking at those hotspots for deals. Steve Wynn has had to do some discounting in Sin City.

Hawaii, meanwhile, is its own deal. The failure of Aloha and ATA Airlines means there are many less travelers going there, which equals heavy discounts on hotels and other accommodations. Try ferreting out the deals using VRBO.com for Hawaii and the Caribbean.
