Cross post from budget board....
I have visited WDW or DL during Presidents week for the past several years. The airfare out of the Northeast, particularly from NYC and north / east can be crazy. $600+ per person round trip is not unheard of.
To get around such prices I have been very flexible with my flight dates and have instead flown out of Philly, Allentown and Baltimore (even though I live in NYC)... or into Tampa or Jacksonville.
This year I was quite nervous as I am taking a Disney Cruise and I cant be very flexible on dates I can fly.
Well it seem like Frontier Airlines which is a Denver based airline is expanding in the northeast. They now fly to MCO from Allentown and Harrisburg (taking over AirTran's slots). They also recently announced service from Trenton NJ (who knew they had an airport there)!
They are not flying out of these airports every day, I booked out of Allentown for $189 round trip that works with my calendar, but I found flights leaving and returning on Fridays or Mondays in mid-February from Trenton for $127 ROUND TRIP! The regular price for this flight is $137, but if you put in the promo code FLY10 you get 10% off the pretax airfare (FLY10 promo code also worked on my Allentown flight).
This is an awesome deal.
