season definitions
 
I'm beginning to plan my trip, and am not sure when high/low/shoulder seasons start and end. Any enlightenment would be appreciated.

Trip from where to where???

tinker, it really depends on where you are travelling, for instance in Rome in the middle of August I have paid low season rates and at the same time on the coast at a beach resort will pay high season rates. Each hotel should have a listing on there web-sites. Typically summer is usually the high season everywhere except of course most mountain/skiing resorts.

"Season" definition very much dependent on destination, not only country but specific location and product. (Mountains vs. cities; air vs. hotel) <BR> <BR>Ed

Low season is when its cheap, which varies with destination. <BR>Start with the hotel price variations with time at your destination.
