Why travel during the off-peak season?

So when it's chilly, most people head to warmer places like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But in the summer months, you'll find that Europe is where it's at. You can usually save on your ticket when you avoid flying during the peak seasons.
