The vacationers were gone. Signs of fall were everywhere. There were football games on TV and pumpkins for sale at farm stands. And yet Lexi Schultz, 25, and her friend Kate Krstevska, 22, were at Lighthouse Beach in Chatham, Mass.
“I’m happy,” Ms. Schultz said. “This is the best time for me.”
Skies were blue. The two women, who work at Wequassett Resort and Golf Club, a luxury hotel on Cape Cod, had the beach practically to themselves on Friday. They sat on a blanket amid the dunes and enjoyed a picnic lunch. When the temperature inched into the 70s, Ms. Schultz did some sunbathing.

As the summer travel season winds down, travelers can take advantage of fall travel deals as a jumpstart for their next vacation. Norse Atlantic Airways, a discount European airline, recently revealed dozens of flight deals on flights from the United States to Europe throughout the rest of 2024 and early 2025 as part of a September Sale. The sale extends to several top tourist destinations in Europe including Athens, Berlin, London, and Rome, all for less than $200 one-way. Travelers can purchase the fare sale tickets between today and September 12, however the tickets are sold in limited quantities, which means the sale could end sooner. Best of all, the discounts are available in Norse’s Economy Light cabin, which, as of September 2, will also include a standard carry-on bag. The cabin class previously had a fee for carry-on bags, or required the purchase of a higher class of fare. In addition to Economy Light, Norse offers Economy Classic which includes a meal service and standard checked bag, and Economy Flextra which includes priority boarding and is a refundable fare. Travel + Leisure spotted dozens of one-way flight deals available including:
