FALL 2013
4 |All-Inclusive Vacations to Cancun
Dear AAA Member:
Now that summer has passed, it’s time to turn our attention to the approach of winter. Fall is an ideal
time to start making plans to shake off the winter blues and get away to someplace fun and exciting.
Have you ever thought about Europe in the off-season? It’s the perfect time to go if you prefer fewer
crowds, surprisingly mild temperatures and substantially cheaper prices. Or for sun and surf, the
Caribbean and Mexico continue to provide excellent value.
From Barcelona and Madrid to Jamaica, Punta Cana and Puerto Vallarta, AAA Travel Consultants
can help you choose a trip that’s just right for you – and show you how to get even more value with
exclusive AAA Benefits, AAA ExploreMore® Rewards and the AAA Best Price Guarantee*.
Don’t forget, with iTravel Advisor from AAA®, you can experience, plan and book your vacation
online as you video chat with one of our expert consultants. Go to AAA.com/iTravelAdvisor to
learn more.
If you’re like me, you’re probably eager to get started checking out the trips on
the following pages, including a sampling of the many excursions available in our
