If your a traveler and planning a fall vacation in the Southern United States or Caribbean and you must keep a eye out for storms or bad weather, All travel experts verify this.
Hurricane season is here and will be until November. The experts in the travel business caution anyone heading into a tropical country to keep up on weather maps and cancellation clauses in fine print, USA Today said.
Most all the resorts have various ways to make up for vacations interrupted by  weather.
Walt Disney World resorts permit rescheduling or cancellation of packages without penalty though Nov. 30 if the National Hurricane Center issues a warning for the Orlando area. Same goes if a hurricane warning is issued for a guest's home area within a week of arrival.
If Super Clubs guests can't arrive because of a hurricane, they can reschedule or come for fewer nights and get a future stay equal to nights missed. Should a hurricane strike, guests are repaid for disrupted nights and get that number free on a future stay.
Priceline has a "Sunshine Guaranteed" policy for certain fall packages bought by Sept. 12. The dozen Caribbean Sandals Resorts and four Beaches Resorts require special insurance.
Some resorts, including Eden Rock on St. Barts and Hermitage Bay on Antigua, are closed during this month or time.
