Its the worst time of year to non-rev, its the worst time of year to find lodging as well as massive crowds in most tourist spots. Sep to Dec not during a holiday is by far the best time to travel.
It doesn't, if you live a bohemian lifestyle with no SO, or your SO is also bohemian. If there are school-age kids anywhere in the picture, it matters.
Actually I agree that I don't like summer heat, humidity, and crowds so we've done a lot of fall vacations, and just pulled the kids out (man those educators squeal when you impact their attendance and budget numbers). But my last kid is big on both sports and academics in HS, so we can't take that one out anymore.
