I hate to ask for help like this but I have been on the internet for about an hour now trying to find the best flight deal I can. I used to be on these boards ALL the time but situations have changed (boohoo). Anyway, I dont remember all the web sites and such. And I am in a last minute crunch here. Quickly to explain: I am about to drive from Dallas to FL with my 7yr DS, and 16yr DD. My DH was suppposed to go. We were going to drop him of at WDW and the kids and I would continue down to Ft. Lauderdale. Meeting back at WDW the end of the week. We just decided to have him stay here, work the extra week, and fly down to WDW to meet us.

On Travelocity I found probably a great deal, well I know it is. Airtran to WDW for $132. The soonest I could get him there will be 12/31 at 9PM. (I dont want him coming in that late. New Years Eve is our Aniversary :) ) I was hoping to find something on Sat or Sun. Can anyone tell me where to look besides Travelocity?

But I cant waste time. I need to get driving soon. And I am sure I may be messing up by even waiting this long on the flight I found, it may be gone in a Jiff!!! So I am sorry if I sound desperate....but I am!!!!

Thanks Everyone!!!

That's a great rate for travel during peak times at the last minute. You could try Orbitz or Expedia, as well as the specific airline sites.

Good luck!

Heidi-
You are traveling at PEAK travel time! I think that is probably the best deal you can get, and you better book it fast, cuz it will sell out soon!!
Try www.americanairlines.com or www.delta.com They have hubs in DFW, so they might have lower pricing. Good Luck!

Thanks Awesome. Didnt find a better deal (or even comparable on the same date) on the others. I went ahead and jumped on the Airtran one. This will work out just fine. I didnt watn to wait and loose that rate!!!

Thanks again!

I hope you bought it from the airline website, www.airtran.com ,rather than travelocity. Airtran runs cheaper fares on their own site, than what you'll find on travelocity.
