Dear Traveler,
Autumn is a wonderful time to travel... especially in the Southeast! The big crowds are gone from the Beaches and the Fall sunsets are awe-inspiring. The weather is a little cooler and special events are happening on a daily basis. Festivities are in full swing in Key West, kicking off the start of their travel season (you can watch daily Fantasy Fest updates on KEY TV's live stream). Thanksgiving and Christmas festivals are coming up in Atlanta, New Orleans, and Myrtle Beach. And Florida's Gulf Coast is back to business as usual after Hurricane Ivan.

Today is your last chance to enter our Gulf and Golf Getaway. A winner will be randomly selected tomorrow - Friday, October 29! Don't forget to enter for a chance to WIN a Colorado Ski Trip! We've got more cool contests lined up, so stay tuned for some great giveaways! Good luck!

October's HOT Travel Deals include a Key West Getaway, a Mardi Gras package, and great rates at Bay Point Marriott Resort and Edgewater Beach Resort in Panama City Beach! Enjoy!
